It's a LANDSLIDE for Mitt Romney...

The QStarNews projection of the 2012 presidential race sees Mitt Romney being elected the next president of the United States with 53.63 percent of the popular vote and 359 electoral votes to President Obama's 45.92 percent and 179 electoral votes.

OMG this is laughable.

Romeny has never been up more than 2 in any Iowa poll. Obama currently leads and the latest NBC poll has Obama up by 5.

They have Romney by eight in Iowa. Where do they get these absurd numbers?

They must be engaging in this fiction because the reality would be demoralizing to the Republicans and they'd stay home. Must make things up to get that base out to the polls, I guess!

Oy vey.

I guess I can't fault them for trying to get over the finish line. However, anyone who knows the facts knows that these numbers are not only wrong, but ridiculous.

"Momentum!"

The best poll analysts out there see it very differently. Nate says Obama has a 72% chance of winning. The Princeton Consortium puts it even higher, and these guys missed the electoral vote count by just one vote in 2008.

In any case, everyone agrees that if Obama's supporters turn out at the level of Romney supporters, we win without difficulty. GOTV and we win, simple as that.

These people are trippin'.

And the tracking polls and national polls can say whatever they want. Until I see a series of polls showing Obama trailing in NV, OH, and WI, he has an EC lead by 1 point...

And that's not even mentioning leads in IA and NH. Or narrow leads in CO and VA. Or the fact that NC and FL are still competitive.

But why am I even mentioning that. These people have force fields around their heads to deflect all reason and logic.
