frist of all, those states Romney has to win keep changing daily according to what Democrats think or want to think: 2-no, he does not have to win all of them, but yes, a couple ar a must: Last week it was said he had to win VA, NC and Oh, no mention of WI or Mi. I think you are the one than drummed these states up, not the political experts.Then there was he had to win PA, FL and NC. Which ones does Romney have to win?

Really? You think this is a good number for obama?

RealClearPolitics - Election 2012 - Wisconsin: Romney vs. Obama

Or this?

RealClearPolitics - Election 2012 - Michigan: Romney vs. Obama

An incumbent that can't get above 50% in two states he won by 16 and 13 points in 2008...you think is good?

Trend is towards Romney.

I don't see it that way. Obama has lotsa 'splainin to do.

I believe the debates will lose it for Romney. He's John Kerry sans personality.

I predict obama will throw a tantrum in the debates. He is unaccustomed to his record, LIES and rhetoric being challenged and being the narcissist that he is, he will find it difficult to handle. Expect interruption, snarkiness, petulance and just an overall demonstration of just how UNFIT he is for the office.

What polls are you guys watching. Last night, on a political show, they Have as of today Romeny up in WI by 47% to Obama 44% and 5 % are undecided.

Today those numbers are the same.

Very easy here. Go on Obama's record, he is screwed. So i do expect as sanrene has said, all the bells and whistles! the lies being good, and when his record is being brought up, he will get nasty and arrogant as ever.

Honestly think by voting time, economy is going to get better, think again.

4.7% UE rate...balanced budget, bipartisan agreements, bringing both sides together on numerous issues (that's called leadership in case you don't recognize it anymore from the disaster that sits in the WH).

Only the distorted version of Romney's economic record put out by the Obama campaign is bad.

See this....

Obama campaign omits key facts on Romney's Massachusetts record - Los Angeles Times

Also...the job growth statistics are misleading. They don't take into account population growth, nor do they take into account the fact that job growth improved signficantly in the state during Romney's term.

LOL ... put out the reefer

Romney gave up on party building. "From now on," he told The Boston Globe, "it's me-me-me." ... But apart from health care, Romney defined success not with big-picture legislative accomplishments but with confrontation ... ...if Romney is elected president: "You're gonna get the same guy who never wanted to engage the Legislature. He never wanted to look for new jobs; he was always only looking for his next job." ... "He was aloof; he was not approachable," Story says. "He was very much an outsider, the whole time he was here." ... And Story remembers something else about the former governor: "The Republican reps would grumble that he didn't even know their names." ... But by the end of his term, Romney's approval rating in Massachusetts was only 34 percent. In recent polls, the number has barely changed.

LMAO ... didn't even know the names of the other con's in the Legislature ... 34% approval rating at the end

Yeah, what a 'leader'...
