Which would mean he has a number of paths to lose, which I'd prefer. The only poll that matters is the big one in November. Nothing else matters... excepting to get rid of the guy.
At this point in time, I think Obama will beat Romney.
Its really a toss up, and the indicating factor will be if he can get out the vote. I wonder how many Democrats are so fed up, that they simply will stay home, while Republicans I bet are far more motivated to vote out the incompetent fool.

There are a lot of Republicans who would not have chosen Romney as their first choice, but they will "hold their noses" and vote for him anyway. Even Evangelists who are not thrilled with the idea of a Mormon president. Same thing with the Democrats. Obama is energizing his base, the traditional Democrats will vote for him: the Black, Women, Urban, Asian, Hispanic, LGBT, Labor, Environmentalist, Jewish, Educators, etc. block. That Democrats are "fed up" with Obama is a pretty myth and fairy tale Republicans hope has some truth to it, but in reality it is just wishful thinking.

Right wingers just want to believe Romney will win but they can't be bothered to do the math. Romney needs to pull off pretty much a clean sweep of swing states which is a herculean task with no margin of error. If you try to make a map showing a potential Romney presidential win, you'll see how far fetched it is.

Michigan and Wisconisns latest polls have Obama either up or down a point or 2, that shod warrent toss up status.
Anyone who thinks these are tossup states should probably step away from political discussion. The GOP needs to focus on states they have a chance in... like Florida, NC, maybe Virginia, etc and give up on the Upper Midwest, which will remain blue this year.
FL, OH, NC, WI, IA, MO, AZ, plus any one of NV, CO, VA, MI, NH. If the president's approval rating continues in the 45% range, Romney will likely win all of these. Obama seems to be doubling down on policy proposals that are not selling and campaign strategies that are flawed, and his syncophants tell him it is just a matter of talking more. By election day, 53-55% of us might be awfully tired of hearing him talk.
Romney, in all likelihood, will not win Ohio. Ohioans really don't like the Republican governor, rejected anti-union legislation overwhelmingly and the economy there is doing much better than the national average. Ohio is usually not a landslide for either party in an election, and this one probably won't be any different, but there are solid reasons to believe that Ohio stays blue. And as you all know, no Republican has become president without it.

By voting for an even larger incompetent fool. Awesome strategy, GOP voters.
