Well its true, no incumbent has won beind down 50/47 this close to the election. Thats true. but you've got to look at the state by state polls. Romney is going to win 70% to 80% of the vote in most southern states. Numbers like that skew "national" likely voter polls.

If Obama wins Ohio, its over. If he loses Ohio but wins Colorado, its over.

I'd say that gives him a 60/40 shot of winning it.

I'm seeing that President Obama is now leading in Florida, Virginia, and North Carolina.

There is no 50/50. There never was.
Even your Lord and Savior Nate Silver has Romney as the favorite in FL, VA, and NC. What you are seeing must be written on the inside of your eyelids. Here's a friendly tip: open your eyes!

Exactly. He is seeing things that I am not seeing.

I don't care about me, being wrong happens in life. I'm just concerned about the millions more Americans going into needless poverty as a direct result of Obama's anti-growth agenda. And the ability of our grandchildren to pay off the current $16 Trillion deficit PLUS the additional $4 trillion that will be larded on during Obama's second term, as he works his failed policies even harder. Imagine, nearly $3 BILLION of new debt every day of every week for four more years.

But your callous disregard for your fellow Americans is astonishing; I'll charitably mark it up to ignorance.

Jobs numbers getting better week after week. Gas prices coming WAY down. If you're not doing better right now it's because of something YOU are doing wrong.

IMO all these polls are BS, not to mention a waste of time. What if...What if ....Romney has a X lead in X, Obama has an X lead in X....BUT NO ONE HAS POLLED ME OR MY NEIGHBORS, OR ANY OF MY FRIENDS OR RELATIVES.

Polls are statistics and statistics are made up by the media.

May I inquire as to how old you are? I say this because you talk like an uninformed youngster.
