The media has been playing Romney's FEMA view from the primaries today, and most likely the next several days will see an increase in this discussion as the direct reporting from Sandy slows to long term impact discussion. I'm sure people with say its the MSM media trying to trash Romney but I'm sure the Romney campaign is not happy to see that clip being played right now before the all important poll next week.
Oh, and with many polls 'suspending' operations, I don't think we'll see any accurate polls until Nov 6th when the final "poll" is released!

Might as well start your bets now.
It didn't faze Rasmussen though. Same results. I guess they have not been calling anyone in New York or New Jersey.
But Democratic pollster Stanley Greenberg and Republican pollster Whit Ayres found that Obama leads by 4 points in the 12 battleground states that appear ready to pick the winner for the rest of the country next Tuesday. And they suggest that Romney's post-debate surge has "stalled."
I can see Romney possibly winning the popular vote, but that won't put him in the White House. Just ask Al Gore.
If Obama wins the EC but loses the popular vote, his second term will be marred with that, just like Bush's was until 9/11 rallied the country back together. In my opinion, it will weaken his presidency both real-time and perhaps in a historical perspective.

Ahhh but there is a caveat that if they claim the Northeast turn out was lower (which it may be) due to the storm, historically would be protected by an "unknown" caused by the largest storm ever to hit the Northeast.

Nothing will have changed. The GOP will obstruct and refuse to bargain just as they would have done if he won the popular vote.

It will frustrate Obama to the point of going ape***t on exec orders for the next 4 years, ensuring that Hilarity or any other Dem hasn't a chance in 2016.

If Obama loses the popular vote, it will prove the importance of the 2010 mid-term elections. If 63 House seats had NOT been taken by Republicans in that first repudiation of Obama, Obama's agenda would have continued to steamroll the economy, producing millions more in poverty. And poor people tend to vote Democrat.
The last time voters weighed in on Barack Obama was in 2008. In 2010, Dems got busted. Wisconsin recall, Dems got busted. Anyone else see a trend?
Romney hits the campaign trail in Florida tomorrow looks like Florida is indeed tightening.
Obama was there before the hurricane as well. If he gets Florida, it's all over.
