I live here, and I know that Romney will not carry this state. Outside of the northern and central counties, Romney is not going to carry the southeast or the Pittsburgh area. I live in the Lower Susquehanna Valley and this area is nowhere near enough to offset the Philly suburbs

Well not all is lost they still have time to purge minority voters

Oh, please. I'm a minority and I've been using my DL to identify myself at the polls even before the law was enacted.

- Obama insulted Pennsylvanians with his "gun and bibles" comment
- Obama saying he would put the coal industry out of business pissed-off a huge number of people who work in coal or related industries.

I don't care if you're from Pennsylvania. You clearly don't know what you're talking about.

-Arkansas elected a Democratic governor in 2010. Will Arkansas vote for Obama now?
-Control of state legislatures often swing back and forth. It's not permanent.
-1994 was a referendum on Clinton. He won in 1996.
-Most people blame/credit the president for the state of unemployment during an election year. (The Romney campaign asked Rick Scott to stop talking about Florida's falling unemployment rate because they were afraid the voters would also give Obama credit.)
-He made that comment four years ago and won the state by 10. Why would it suddenly hurt him now?
-Obama never said that.

TAKE THE SHAME

I am not saying Obama has it in the bag but if the election were held today, he would win Ohio and Florida, which leaves Romney no path to victory.

But the election is 6 weeks away and stuff can happen.

Wow, I feel like such a genius so far. All these old threads saying Obama is in trouble, me somewhere saying Romney has to open his mouth and a month later he's down.

crbcrbrgv: Incredible political prognosticator or someone who sees the obvious.

It's the latter. Plenty of us knew Romney had pretty much no chance because, well, Mitt is Mitt. Open mouth, step in ****.
