Perhaps you missed the entire episode where the Democrats proposed a $4 Trillion mega deal and the Republicans refused it.

Looks like many of the poor decisions the Republicans made will come back to haunt Romney as he works in Ohio and the swing States.

His support of candidates who make outrageous statements regarding women and rape certainly doesn't appear wise.

As much as the President has created Romney's electoral problem, the Republicans and Romney have created Romney's electoral problem.

Romney's in trouble.
Florida will go blue.
Ryan is anathema to the voters there. They aren't stupid.

West Virginia is in play? It explains, recently romney paid millions to deluge the ads on tv pretending he gives a dam about coal miners. His ad says he relates to them

That is like saying Queen Elizabeth has visited a taco bell.

Pretty sad.

Interesting stat.

I do not know a single woman, with a career and education, who will vote GOP. Students also tend to vote at last minute.

Exclamation hmm....

Looks like Romney's slide continues amid reports of loss of momentum.
With the clock ticking down to Election Day, most political prognosticators see President Obama winning re-election, though his Electoral College count varies from 281 — just 11 votes over the 270 needed to win — to 332, below his 2008 win but still a healthy margin.
Nine 2012 Electoral College predictions have Obama ahead

Looks like a bunch of places will remain Blue this time around if the polling is accurate.

Close but a big loss for Romney.

My prediction of about 330 appears to be fairly close...
