Thread: More Obama Voters Than McCain Voters SWITCHING PARTIES This Year

Romney's extremely narrow path to 270 requires him to take every swing state, and having the numbers shoved in your face must be very disheartening.

Ohio = Obama up 4.8
Colorado = Obama up 3.3
Florida = Obama up 2.3
Wisconsin = Obama up 6.7
Pennsylvania = Obama up 6.9
Minnesota = Obama up 8.0

Those polls are all skewed something like 10%+ to democrats.

Haven't spent hardly ANY MONEY...Obama's already burned through OVER $100 MILLION.



Massive ADS,and the DEBATES are coming, after the conventions....

way the polls are being skewed if election were held tomorrow I would think Romney would win easily. The Dem oversampling in the polling is just nuts, can't figure if they are just being lazy, stupid or are just trying to make it look like Obama has some momentum.

We shall see. Like I said I think it is too early to call it for anyone at this point.

one of the few times I ever agree with you but yep, a day is a lifetime in politics and look at 1980. Carter lost in one night, the night of the debate

I didn't see those gaffes as being worthy of the criticism they received. The one exception was Romney's comments on the Israeli healthcare system. That was worthy of a raised eyebrow, and probably lost him some votes, or at least lost him some confidence amongst conservatives.

I think they really need to start focusing on those undecided states, and states which seem likely to lean towards Obama. If not, it's likely curtains for Mitt. I guess there is the slim possibility that Obama will do or say something that will weaken his support, but it seems like he's been a bit quiet since "you didn't build that". I'm not sure, but it seems like there was a correlation between that and his poll numbers.

I don't think Romney is running a very good campaign at all. Romney will not beat Obama , the economy will. That's just the cold hard truth.Once he is in Romney has a good chance of earning his second term, he's a better businessman than he is a politician

After the Convention. Obama is going to be jack-hammered into oblivion. Beyond turf even Carter never walked on.

If he doesn't come out swinging it proves the whole thing is a fraud and the fix is in.

I do have faith in Romney's ability to debate, and I think he's going hit Obama hard on the economy. I think that will be the main focus. He'll probably try to avoid healthcare for obvious reasons, but then again, he's pretty slick, he might be able to give a satisfying retort.
