Don’t look now but Democrats are in trouble.

VIDEO


Democratic drop in Ohio voter registrations mirrors a nationwide trend.

In fact, Democratic voter registration in 8 swing states outnumbers Republican decline by a 10-to-1 ratio.

FOX News
reported:
“Don’t boo, vote,” President Obama often says in his stump speech whenever crowds boo a Romney plan.


The off-hand call to vote may be by design. It comes amid a precipitous decline in Democratic voter registration in key swing states — nowhere more apparent than in Ohio.
Voter registration in the Buckeye State is down by 490,000 people from four years ago. Of that reduction, 44 percent is in Cleveland and surrounding Cuyahoga County, where Democrats outnumber Republicans more than two to one.


“I think what we’re seeing is a lot of spin and hype on the part of the Obama campaign to try to make it appear that they’re going to cruise to victory in Ohio,” Cuyahoga County Republican Chairman Rob Frost said. “It’s not just Cuyahoga County. Nearly 350,000 of those voters are the decrease in the rolls in the three largest counties, Cuyahoga, Hamilton and Franklin.


Frost points out that those three counties all contain urban centers, where the largest Democrat vote traditionally has been.


Ohio is not alone. An August study by the left-leaning think tank Third Way showed that the Democratic voter registration decline in eight key swing states outnumbered the Republican decline by a 10-to-one ratio. In Florida, Democratic registration is down 4.9 percent, in Iowa down 9.5 percent. And in New Hampshire, it’s down down 19.7 percent.

Funny Isn't it? Our state newspaper (one should call it the central federal state newspaper) has Obama leading by 3% points. The funny part is when, in the fine print, they go into the "methods" of how this poll was determined. The "usual" liberal tricks of registered voters, demographic from 2008 selected, sampling more democrats than republicans, small sample size, and using phone polls).

In the Iowa State Fair poll, which polled 50,000 people (which is 50X what national polls use), Romney led Obama 56% to 44%!!!!!!!!!!! I do not know of ONE McCain voter who is now gong to vote for Obama. In contrast, I know MANY, MANY Obama voters who are going to vote for Romney. For instance, at ONE surgery center, of 17 Obama supporters in 2008, only three are going to vote for him again. I am sure this is occurring nationally as well, but is being quelled by the media in an effort to limit Romney donations and discourage republican turn out.

The only ones who will be surprised on the day after the election will be liberals. They will wake up, like the Whos in Whoville after all their gifts were stolen by the Grinch, to find Obama will soon join them in the unemployment line.

It's tough to run for a second term on "hope and change" again when it didn't materialize in the first term.

Obama's present campaign is his "disappointment" tour.

My poll conducted at the "Obama Sucks Bar and Grill" has Romney beating Obama handily, but losing to Joe Pulaski who bought the house a round right before polling.

Kind of like Obama buying cellphones for the welfare class with OUR money, eh?

At least Joe Pulaski paid for that round of beer with HIS OWN money.

Amazing what happens when the dead, felons, and illegals are purged from the voter rolls...

It must be Bush's fault. Or is it ATM machines? Or maybe we just need to check the air pressure in our tires?

That plus Romney's voter registration has been caught committing voter fraud by only signing up those that are going to vote for Willard, plus registering 100's of bogus voters.

If it wasn't for voter fraud, the GOP would never win an election
