Gallup state numbers predict huge Obama loss
http://campaign2012.washingtonexaminer.com ^ | February 1, 2012 | Conn Carroll

Gallup released their annual state-by-state presidential approval numbers yesterday, and the results should have 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue very worried. If President Obama carries only those states where he had a net positive approval rating in 2011 (e.g. Michigan where he is up 48 percent to 44 percent), Obama would lose the 2012 election to the Republican nominee 323 electoral votes to 215.

Gallup ads:

Overall, Obama averaged 44% job approval in his third year in office, down from 47% in his second year. His approval rating declined from 2010 to 2011 in most states, with Wyoming, Connecticut, and Maine showing a marginal increase, and Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Minnesota, New Jersey, Arizona, West Virginia, Michigan, and Georgia showing declines of less than a full percentage point. The greatest declines were in Hawaii, South Dakota, Nebraska, and New Mexico.

Cool.

We can all stay home if Romney is nominated and he will still win.

This looks good at the moment. But none of this is certain so we need to get behind our nominee soon and get on to the business of beating BHO.

There is no way Obozo can carry the Omaha district in Nebraska and lose Ohio. Not even with Warren Buffet.

Nevada also generally votes to the right of Ohio.

Well, there was not too much analysis on my part. I just looked at the approval rates of the states, and had no idea one way or the other on that Nebraska district, so kept in line with the 2008 results.

But if there is a large enough minority who would do as many Freepers appear willing to do if Romney is the nominee, then your assumptions may not be correct either. I don't like Romney, he's my third or fourth choice of the remaining four, but I will vote for him if he is the nominee. I DO NOT want four more years of the socialist in chief.

Get ready for a party ruled by the likes of Meghan McCain

Bubbles McCain would make a good mascot for the hybrid Republicrat Party, being a cross of elephant and ass.

Obama will run a negative campaign, and as it is already He will win by making everyone else’s approval numbers go even lower than his.

Theses numbers matter not.

Not begging for anything, mittwitt. Those who appreciate FR contribute freely to keep it running smoothly and to keep it a more or less liberal-free zone.

Hmm, doesn’t sound like FR is you sort of website. You have an ozonian smell about you. What was your previous name at FR? Can you proudly proclaim, ‘And I’m a Mormon’?

Whoever we pick to take out Barky, preferably Santorum, is who I’m going with - I had enough of that ‘0bama won’t be so bad’ crap in ‘08.

‘______an electorate that would vote for him.’

By Aug 2009, having become aware that the new, ‘historical’ president, BHO, was on TV just about every day, annoyingly, your very same thought occurred to me then.
It’s the voters to be feared, unless educated. That possible?

I saw the reports after but if they’re true, Newt needs to get a new media buyer - he paid 1/4 as much for way less than 1/4 of the ads.

Good! I hope the door does hit him on his way out. He actually tries to blackmail FR? Either say something nice about Mitt or I won’t donate? Hey, 2007 Crusader... you and the horse you rode in on. Sheesh!

Personally, I find the notion that a congenital idiot, arguably the worst president in the nation’s history, and a model of Marxist corruption admired by none other than Fidel Castro, might get 215 electoral votes intensely worrisome and an indicator that the nation is very badly scr*wed.
