If this tool is correct, Obama will re-elected. I dragged all the redneck states to the Romney side and all the Liberal states to the Obama column, Obama wins by a large margin

My prediction is Romeny winning with 311 electoral college votes. I'm going to be a lot closer than most of you.

Romney-302

Obama-236

And that's with giving half of the swing states that are running 50/50 right now to each.

Wow.

That is exactly what I came up with. I am assuming Romney will carry Florida, North Carolina, Indiana ... but I'm pretty sure Obama will carry Ohio, the entire North-East, and the 3 Pacific Coast States.

We know that's not happening.
Even if he wins it certainly won't be a big margin.

I'd bet Obama knows that well.

What if some of the blue states...actually go red? What happens to the dynamic then? I would not bet on California being blue...who knows.

But...I have issues with the Electoral college system..it is antiquated and needs to go...same as slavery. Just cause the founding Fathers said it was correct...don't make it so...
