RCP Electoral Map: Romney 206 Obama 201

[Billy the Great Khan]

I usualy refer to fivethirtyeight. For one thing, RCP exludes "tossups". Pennsylvania and Michigan, my friend, are not tossups...

MI most certainly is.

 

[Lowaicue]

Obama might win, he might not. Either way its not going to change my opinion that he was the better choice. I'm sure if Obama wins, Dixie will still not like him.

In the unlikely and, for the world, unfortunate event of Romney winning, Obama is assured of a new job. Watch the UN. Ban Ki Moon will resign and Barack Obama will become Secretary General of the United Nations.
Sadly for the half brains who still want a second bush - Obama ain't goin' nowhere cep'n up.

 

[Airstrip One]

I think it would be awesome if Obama became UN Secretary General. Any American is better than none at all.

 

[Mott the Hoople]

How many people here have all ready voted?

 

[PostmodernProphet]

MI most certainly is.

is Obama still running ads on your side of the state?.......

This old broad has been shoved in our faces for the past three months by the liberals, but I bet they won't be calling our attention to it anymore. Romney now leads in RCP's Electoral College vote count for the first time during the campaign.

I guess Biden didn't really "win" his debate, huh?

LOL @Desh! ...Hey honey boo boo... it's NOT 2000, 2004, or 2008!

 

[evince]

that is from the chart in your link insane lying meatsack

 

[Dixie - In Memoriam]

Well that's fine, Desh... what does it have to do with the current polls?

 

[evince]

that of those toss up states on your map Obama wins nearly all

 

[Bonestorm]

agreed.....Obama has no chance in Michigan.....he's not even advertising on the west side of the state any more.....and the Grand Rapids area (65% Republican) is now the largest metropolitan area in the state.....

before the debates Baydoun/Foster, which is a pollster for the DNC only gave Obama 3 pts......I look for new polls in the next two weeks which will blow Michigan wide open......

The latest Rasmussen poll of Michigan has Obama +7. And that was pre-debate #2.

Meh, it's michigan. You never know for sure what those knuckledraggers will do.

 

[Bonestorm]

True. But the idea that "Obama has no chance in Michigan" is loony.

 

[PostmodernProphet]

True. But the idea that "Obama has no chance in Michigan" is loony.

we will talk again in a few weeks about who was looney....

 

[Jarod]

we will talk again in a few weeks about who was looney....

even IF Romney were to win misch in two weeks... How's that going to prove Obama never had a chance?

 

[Bonestorm]

we will talk again in a few weeks about who was looney....

OK. Assuming Romney wins, what margin of victory would be indicative of Obama having "no chance?"

 

[Jarod]

OK. Assuming Romney wins, what margin of victory would be indicative of Obama having "no chance?"

10%?

 

[Dixie - In Memoriam]

that of those toss up states on your map Obama wins nearly all

No... Obama won nearly all in 2008. It's not 2008 anymore. They won't give Obama credit for what he won in 2008... you were aware of that, I hope!

 

[Lowaicue]

that of those toss up states on your map Obama wins nearly all

If Obama 'wins nearly all' doesn't that preclude their 'toss up' status?

 

[PostmodernProphet]

OK. Assuming Romney wins, what margin of victory would be indicative of Obama having "no chance?"

lol....if Romney wins I'll be satisfied regardless of the spread......just the look on your face will be sufficient.....
