The question would be does Romney or Obama lose the votes going to Johnson and Goods.

It's interesting to see that even though the general election popular vote will be close, the results of this poll are VERY similar to the current Intrade.com's (pay-to-play) odds of an Obama victory. It just goes to show that no matter who you want to win, most people are heavily convinced that Obama will win. The flip side of that argument is that it may breed complacency among his supporters.

Actually it could be viewed as a win win scenario for the Dems as if Obama wins thats great , if Romney wins we can look forward to 4 years of trashing Romney on the forum, the righties certainly seemed to have a lot of fun trashing President Obama.

But there was a day when not every other person was on some form of welfare, including 99 weeks of unemployment money.

All the talk about 'this has never happened' and 'that has never happened' is just babble.

But if you look at it logically, all Obama needs is Ohio. And even if he does not win Ohio, there are other ways of taking of getting to that 270.

If Romney does not win Ohio, then he is out. I do not think there are other ways really for him.
I disagree. obama desperately needs Ohio and Wisconsin. The swing states of CO, NC, VA, and FL look to be headed for Romney wins. So, does NH. If Romney got NH and IA, then that is enough for him to take it all without worrying about OH or WI. If obama got NV, WI, OH, NM, PA, MI and all the regular blue states he would still have to get IA or NH too get past the 270 mark.

I've never heard of "Virgil" until I read the poll list selection....

All this post tells you is how lopsided c-d is with its liberal bias and multiple account voting. It's obviously in the bag for obama so his few remaining supporters can stay home and loot in the aftermath of the storm.
