How do 'ya figure, when even the most conservative electoral projections show Romney losing big time... and all they disagree about is 'how much'?! Although I suppose you can always fall back on debating "popularity polls" (...LOL)!
Looking at the map it suggests Obama should not give up on states like Arizona, Missouri, Iowa, Indiana, Tennessee or the Carolinas just to force Romney to spend a lot of his billionaries money in states that should be already in has back pocket.
The problem is the population shifts from DC to Va have changed Va. to a slightly Blue state and the Hispanic growth in the 3 western states, NM, NV, and Colorado, have shifted 33 traditional Red states EV's to Blue.
Florida is another state that has shown Hispanic growth and with the slowdown of the population shift to the from the rust belt to Florida I see Florida going to the Dems also...
Even if Romney wins Virginia, Ohio, and Florida, Obama still wins because of the Western 3. 272 EV's
The map show reality, one that has never changed. The President wins handily. The stench of Romney's message, backed by the lousy record of his party, dooms his chances. Obama takes the entire Northeast, Midwest, and Far West. WA, OR, NV, CO, NM - Obama. NC, FL, VA - Obama. WI, MI, PA, OH - Obama.
Game over. Enjoy President Obama's second term. Pubs would've been better off spending all that money to help find a cure for Cancer or Alzheimer's. What jokes they are
The major problem is Romney is an imperfect candidate.... Obama has lost his luster after 4 years, but people remember Bush and his MBA then look at Romney and realize he is Bush 2.0.
