DC's Finest,
If Wisconsin is such a Democrat stronghold, then why did Bush only lose the state by 0.2% during his 2000 election and then lost again by a mere 0.4% in 2004 for his reelection?

Scott Walker is a member of what party? He just won 2 elections there.

No, It's not.
Mitt Romney is no Ronald Reagan. Even if he was, Ronald wouldn't get elected these days anyway.

sure he would. I don't think people really totally understand today's Republicans versus 30 years ago and Reagan brought the Democrats to his side, he would do the same today.

Romney only trails in Iowa by 1% and Wisconsin by 2%.

Then show us a credible electoral projection where anyone (besides you) seriously sees Romney even close to winning..?

As I see it, Obamacare is going to sink Obama.

Once again, please either read or read more carefully so that you can comprehend.

I am not saying the projection is wrong or inaccurate.

I am saying that the projection has Romney in striking distance not as an Obama blow out. If Romney holds the states they give him credit for and flips Florida and Michigan he wins.

Seriously, please read.
