Loved the look on Joe S.'s face when he discussed the Time Ohio poll

[helpisontheway]

He said that poll is a big deal. He said that poll along with other polls from Ohio show that Romney has a steep hill to climb. He said if it was a month out, that would be one thing. However, he said it is difficult with less than 2 weeks left. Oh and then he turned around and said Virginia and Florida would go to Romney. Guess he has not paid attention to the polls that show both of them either tied or with a slight Obama edge. He said in other states that a tie goes to the President because of the ground operation. Why is that not true for Virginia and Florida?

1. Narrative starting to turn perhaps?

2. DEFINATELY!!!!! I was really surprised that they dropped the whole Romney momentum...

They were really making it sound like an uphill climb for Romney. My husband does not really follow politics. However, he was in the room this morning. He heard them and expressed that perhaps they were trying reverse psychology (to keep people from going to vote..make them too comfortable). I don't think so. I think they know the gig is up and that the crap they have been spinning (Romney's momentum) is not working. I'm on a delay now because I paused the show earlier. Chuck Todd is supposed to be coming up this morning. Who knows if he will continue with that narrative or try to prop Romney up...

4. It seems like it. Lots of positive stories for Obama.

3. Joe has to give the Repubs some hope. They don't care for him particularly so if he throws in towel

not good.

5. He'll probably be even more upset when he hears about Colin Powell endorsing Obama

6. So, According to Joe - Obama wins

Obama can win without Virginia and Florida. But Romney can't win without Ohio - plus most of the other swing states. So, he didn't "circle back" his logic and conclude that he just gave Obama a win?

7. Romney and Florida

Romney very well may win Florida. Won't matter if Obama wins Ohio or Virginia. Ohio is looking more-and-more like it's going to be Obama.
