This is a tight race and Romney will win.
In your dreams. Aren't you paying attention to the battleground states? particularly Ohio? Plus all polls show North Carolina dead even which means Obama has gained some traction there in the past week. Based on all those state polls, Obama would win.

you must be ignoring the fact that most of the polls on that link you posted show Obama leading in the battleground states.

The latest job report is dismall and worse than last month and it does not bode well for BO. It IS about the economy and he is not capable of handling that.....sorry, but numbers don't lie and the latest ones are not pretty.

^The number is 7.9%.

I heard a report that Dick Morris made some outlandish prediction about Romney winning the popular vote by 10 points and winning over 300 electoral votes. Honestly, even if he thinks Romney will win, there is no harm is stating it will be close. If Morris is wrong (and I think he will be, even if Romney does win), this should be the end of hearing him sell his books on the air.

Nate is on the ropes and is flailing away being attacked by his own public editor. Now liberals are beginning to walk away from him by saying, "Well he isn't predicting an outcome, he's just giving probabilities!".

LOL Nate will be toast come Wednesday morning back to the poker tables for him.

New poll shows Obama soaring in New Hampshire - up by 6. NH is small but critical to any hope Romney may have of stealing this one.

Dick is a little out there but I've generally agreed with his analysis most of this cycle. When I looked at the polls even when Romney was supposedly in "gaffe" mode. He always ran strong with Independents and I wasn't seeing much in the way of Dem enthusaism to overcome it.

Romney will win the EC and popular vote by 3-5%
