Now I know you’re pulling my leg. Barring a significant third party run, Obama will end up with between 45-55%. The highest popular vote percentage in history was LBJ with 61% in 1964. There’s no way Obama or Huntsman would approach that.
True, conventional wisdom has it the best case scenario for beating Obama would be something like 55-45. Personally I don’t see where the 45 for the president comes from. Even if they turn out in huge numbers, liberals and blacks are no more than 30-35% of the electorate. In any case, it isn’t going to happen with Perry or the other TP candidates in the race IMO.
