Keep talking about how close It will be.We see all these polls non RAS and gallup looking good for Obama and they seem to dismiss.
Chuck Todd just today called Obama at 50% approvol and elect numbers against Romney just as good and calls It OK.
Pundits try to compare romney to Bill clinton.They are also almost hoping gas prices go up heavily during the summer and unemployment going up.
Mccain,and Kerry who both lost had better favorabilty numbers than Romney.Dole was lost one more unpopular than favorabilty
after winning nomination.
Clinton had to deal with all those tabloid attacks.If anyone thinks Romney Is another CLinton they are crazy
