The Libya scandal may shift the polls in favor of Romney over the next week and a half.

Kiss it good bye Obama haters. This was your last chance.

By this time next year, more minorities, more youth will be voting.

The white, bitter, elderly, right wing vote will be too small to pull it out ever again.

The end of an era.

The hate I see, is from liberals hating blacks that think that they own their own vote and can think for themselves to vote for the Republican party.

Fur sure Dude. The GOP loves them some minorities.

That's why the GOP is actively passing increased voter ID laws across the nation to make it harder for minorities to vote.

Some polls have shown that a slight majority of Democrats agree with voter ID laws. Liberal Illinois carded Obama today.

Why do you assume that minorities can't get a free ID?

And you're welcome to go back to Worldnetdaily and feed your fantasies...LOL
So a former Daily Kos progressive who has worked closely with the Obama administration on its polling activity and who's only been predicting polls since 2008 is predicting Obama will win with an near 80% (and rising) accuracy level.

LOL... You folks kill me.

Yep pretty much. I read a few stories other than what the guy posted here that "OMG OBAMA IS BUYING ADS IN MN!!!" but its like....all one needs to is look at a map of Minnesota and examine the border aligning Wisconsin. In Northwestern Wisconsin, there is nothing...no major cities. Television networks around Superior, WI are broadcast out of Duluth, MN....which has all the local network programming all the way over to Iron Mountain, MI. It spans the entire northern portion of Wisconsin. There is no Wisconsin only network in that area to buy advertising from...so the option is the stations in Duluth, or nothing.

To a lesser extent with central WI, the same is true until you hit Eau Claire.

There is a lot of NW/W Wisconsin that gets its TV from Minnesota.

So, if this is true, Nate's predictions are irrelevant.

2012 election is close enough shifting votes can easily occur without detection.
