Dick Morris: Romney is guaranteed to win 400+ EV... or maybe he will Lose

As of Wednesday night Dick Morris was chortling over the dim-wit liberals who cannot understand polls, and guaranteeing a Romney landslide of astonishing proportion. 400 EV. Romney would win every swing state and win Pennsylvania easily... and Wisconsin... and maybe Minnesota. Etc..

But now Morris is engaged in the same process that Rasmussen (and probably Gallup) are engaged in, which is to pretend that a race that hasn't really changed much for weeks, and in which Romney never led, is seeing a Sandy related late move that might propel Obama forward as a freak event overcoming Romneys HUGE lead, despite the RW poll "unskew" crowd having been right all along.


Dick Morris Sees Danger Signs

Dick Morris, who just days ago predicted a landslide for Mitt Romney, may be wavering.

"With that caution in mind, a danger signal comes from the latest Rasmussen Poll reflecting a two point gain for Obama. Whereas before the storm, Rasmussen showed Romney two ahead, he now has the race tied at 48-48. That is troublesome.

"And, in Pennsylvania, Romney led on Wednesday night by two points but on Thursday night's polling, he was tied. We have also seem slippage for Romney in Michigan."

"More troubling, Rasmussen shows a two point gain for Obama in job approval rising from 48% to 50% in the current poll."

Gallup went so far over the cliff that they were relived that Hurricane Sandy gave them an out and a way to halt their ridiculous polling and suspend it. They left it at Rmoney winning by 5% which is outside of the 2% MOE.
