I laugh at all the neocons giddy over the fake corporate manipulated polls. Dont look at the polls folks, look at the map.
Agreed, although if Iowa, Wisc and Ohio fall in Obama's column it could be much higher. 330 isn't out of the question.

They're afraid of the map.

Some of my family members attended a Romney rally last night in Ohio. There were just over 12,000 people there, and this was in a corner of the state that is rural and near no large metro areas, yet still, 12,000 people managed to make their way there to show their support.

Funny how the national media makes a big thing out of 10,000 showing up for Obama in Denver, a huge metro area that always goes Dem, but somehow forgot to report that Romney is drawing equally large or larger numbers in swing states in areas that aren't even heavily populated.

The truth will come on election day. Until then, all we have is polls that are doctored and slanted by the mainstream media as much as they possibly can and still get away with it--and yet, much to their dismay, they even show things in a dead heat.

Buh-bye, Barack.

Its just that these polls portraying a Romney 'surge' just stink to high heaven. You know when something doesnt make sense. This is one of those occasions.

OR...the nation has become incrimentally greedier, self absorbed and less Christlike. And if that's the case then the polls saying Romney is actually 'winning' makes sense, then God help us.

So, explain how mittens win without Ohio. Ohio is outside the MOE publicly and even worse, for mittens, in internals.

People who think Obama is going to win are just out of it. Just thinking their own thoughts and ideas and not giving any attention to what is happening.

I have seen too many elections. Read this: Romney gets min of 300 EV.

Barring a credible and devastating "October surprise" on either side:

Here’s how I’m calling it- with Ohio and Florida being interchangeable:

Obama: 286 or 275

CA, WA, OR, NV, NM, MI, WI, IL, PA, NY, NJ, HI, CT, RI, NH, ME, MA, MD, DC,
DE, VT, MN, plus OH or FL


Romney: 263 or 252

All the rest plus OH or FL


By the way, I am no fan of either candidate.

By the way again, why do the posts sometimes become so wide on my screen that I have to scroll back and forth horizontally to read each line? Don't know if it's my PC, but usually they are "normal reading size." On the this page they start out normal and become wide several posts down. Annoying.
