Ohio and Virginia slipping away from Romney

[wt1531]

There goes Romney/Ryan's dream of destroying medicare, raising taxes on the middle class to benefit the rich and starting unnessesary wars to benefit neocons. I have a feeling Obama's momentum is such that North Carolina and Florida will turn blue on election night. Wisconsin and Iowa were never in play for Romney despite the medias horse race bullshit. Colorado is a true swing state and could go either way.

1. I hope you're right about Florida and CO!

Sounds like a good plan to me!

4. It is important that Florida turns blue.

If not, the redwingers will spend a lot of money poisoning the minds of their base and that won't play out happily for many of us who live here.

2. If some other good polls come out from VA

and OH stays with Obama then Romney's path to 270 gets pretty much impossible.

6. There is also the Zogby poll

The president has a 3-percentage point advantage over his Republican challenger among all likely voters in Virginia, however: 49 percent to 46 percent, according to the poll. Yet more were against his re-election than were in favor of it: 47 percent to 44 percent.

8. Newsmax is a RW outfit

So if Obama's leading by 3 with them, I wonder what the REAL number is?

9. True about Newsmax, but

Zogby polls lean 3-4 points left. A Zogby +3 is essentially a tie.

3. I told my daughter when she asked..

Obama is going to win isn't he? I said yes. Then I said on election night, if they announce Virginia as a win for Obama, she can rest easy. It's over.

5. Wow, I think your

assessment is spot on. Is that you Nate?

7. If Obama gets those two, it's game over

No matter what happens in all the other swing states.

10. The pundits who are thinly disguised Romney supporters are still trying to find

that mysterious path to 270 for their man this morning. But that path is getting harder and harder to find. It has all but evaporated for them no matter how many fancy tools and graphics they pull out to show us how it can be done. Their spinning and bobbing and weaving is getting comical, especially as the numbers come out looking better and better for Obama/Biden. Before this is over, they will look like a pretzel.

11. Romney has two paths to 270

Wisconsin and Ohio. Neither one is even close to happening.

12. Inverse Relationship ...

The harder Romney campaigns, the lower he goes in the polls.
