Lots in play!
while searching for the olympics this morning i saw them talking about this on pmsnbc...i thought something stinks if Romney’s got a 10pt advantage on the economy in Colorado yet overall he’s losing the state....anyone see this full poll or the breakdown by parties???
“42 percent that think it’s (business experience) a bad thing.”
Those 42% know how valuable community organizing is to understanding economics.
Obama is collapsing everywhere... Polls are way behind the curve in this election and don’t know why.
Obama cannot get over 42-43% of the popular vote, he has no chance of winning this election. The very idea this thing is going to be close is laughable.
The electorate wrote this guy off a long time ago, it doesn’t matter what Obama says or does, no one is listening. Only the supporters he already have hear any of his and his surrogates tin eared nonsense.
He’s burned 100 BILLION and his polling has fallen, and will continue to do so.
Fight like its a 50-50 race, but don’t buy into the nonsense folks, the wheels were off the Obama train before the election cycle even began, and as poorly as his campaign is being run, I honestly believe the guy won’t see 40% in November.
Wife and I are sitting in a Starbucks near Golden. There's an Obama supporter who cornered a couple of innocent looking, presumed to be independents; basically ranting about how he's doing so much better in construction than in 2008. We had to leave. It was a form of disturbing the peace; yet this was common in 2008.
Colorado fell for the Green concept big time in 2008. We're a health conscious state. “Earth in the Balance” movie was getting respect. A little dose of reality since then. Solyndra and other failures. A large solar plant can't be built near Alamosa because of power line visibility issues. Plus the state is leading the way in cheap natural gas production.
The Democratic Party is still big here on the local level as they are way more moderate than the Democratic Party in say Oregon.
But this is a moderate to right state that suffered a form of insanity in 2008 along with a few other states.
I now have an “OMG - Obama Must Go” sticker on my car and I park it prominently in Golden where hundreds must walk/drive by it.
A Petreaus VP would swing Virginia in Romney’s direction. Hampton Roads is the big swing region. Bush carried it twice handily, but Obama carried it in 2008. The swing contingent in Hampton Roads is the military. There are a lot of blacks, which will vote D and the vast majority of LOCAL whites are very conservative and will vote R. The rest of the vote are the transients, military and spouse.
Bob McDonnell has pretty much ruined the republican party in Hampton Roads, but with a military-based economy, Hampton Roads could warm to Petreaus. Ironically, Romney will be here Saturday morning.
How can you tell your neighbor is really stupid? He put it on the paint.
I guess that's good news for the election but it still means that 49% of
Coloradans are dumber than the granite our mountains are made of.
Wow all this coming from a poll that probably over samples dems.
