Marygonzo, welcome to fr; and btw, you might also want to try tiddly winks while performing hop scotch.
I have reflected on the Virginia-Colorado scenario and I stand by what I wrote.
However I think I know what Mitt Romney intends to do:
1) Abandon Virginia and go all in in Wisconsin and its 10 EV. Put Paul Ryan on the ticket who will also help out in Indiana and Ohio. Nate Silver already has given Romney a good chance of winning NC and with the Bushes and Rick Scott in Florida he will feel he should win there as well.
Add all that up you have 83 EV which you can add to the original 180 EV to take Romney to 263 EV.
2)Romney therefore is not forced to win Colorado to become President. He only then needs to win 2 of these 3 states (Nevada, Iowa, NH).
In other words here is a way for Romney to avoid the Virginia-Colorado scenario and for him to have a reasonable shot at being President.
But in this scenario it all comes down to Wisconsin. But if I were in Romney’s shoes I would rather it comes down Wisconsin a less conservative state than Virginia a very conservative state especially in Southern Virginia.
on the Obama states I wouldn’t necessarily bet my life on Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

Your post #43 is right on mark!
“Mickey Mouse would win against Obowma....”
A terrible underestimation, my FRiend.
Unless a miracle happens in August, we’re stuck with Romney and we’d better PRAY he wins.
I’m so curious - how many here have any plans on what to do if BHO gets re-elected? Seriously. ‘Cause our America is toast if that happens, and don’t count on a Republican or Conservative House and Senate to stop him in whatever he tries to do.
See my post 33.
Or should Romney put on the ticket a gay moderate who is for gun control?
___________________________________________________________________________________
Yes; a Black, Lesbian moderate with an Hispanic surname who is of the Jewish faith and is pro-gun control but anti-amnesty. Now, that’s the ticket.
Get out and work your ass off to get Romney elected. Work like your life depends on it. Because it does.
Palin should have run.
______________________________________________________________
Yep!!! Palin should have run. Or DeMint..... Or Ryan.........
Our only hope is mutiny at the convention.

And Romney would win against a candidate with no campaign coffers, no ads, no staff.... And with NOTHING he has 67 days to run against the guy in the White Hut who’s been running for 3.5 years. It would be Obama in a landslide.
Oh yes, Mary; what a blessed hope that would be.

This will make many people on FR very happy.

I’m going to join the National Revolt that I think is sure to come.
Hard to keep track, there are hundreds of them.
Indeed, Obama’s got NC all locked up.
Mr. RomneyCARE was CHOSEN to lose — after “winning”
against conservatives by cheating, backstabbing,
and changing the rules.
Mr. RomneyCARE has NO interest in winning, just
making more money by running for Obama and Soros (his
partner and friend in JET BLUE, again).
