We’re a long way from November 6 (145 days for those who are keeping score at home), but Rasmussen’s latest polling of likely voters in states across the land shows Mitt Romney currently leading President Barack Obama in the quest for electoral votes. In fact, if the 9 key swing states were each to go according to Rasmussen’s latest polling, and if the 41 other states (plus Washington, D.C.) were each to go as they would be expected to go in a tight race, Obama would have 243 electoral votes and Romney 269 — enough for a tie (and an almost inevitable victory in the House of Representatives, where the 50 state delegations would each cast one vote to determine the president).

Obama’s goose is cooked.
Imagine Romney as President but the VP remains Slow Joe, now without adult supervision. It would almost be worth it for the entertainment value alone.
Then the screams and whines of stolen elections, threats against Republican Congressmen to embarrass them, or to get them out, etc etc etc.
But, but, the NYT tells me Obama has a 70% chance of winning! /s
The unions are coming, the unions are coming.
Union aims to organize the unemployed

The group is currently pushing passage of New Jersey Democratic Sen. Frank Lautenberg’s recent “21st Century WPA Act” to reinstate the New Deal employment program, and Ohio Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur’s attempt to rejuvenate another New Deal program with her “21st Century Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Act.”
Lautenberg’s bill would cost $250 billion through 2013;
LANDSLIDE COMING
The dims won’t just scream. They will sue FL over the voter roll “discrimination” and try to get the vote invalidated. It would be a huge cluster and no doubt the kenyan will incite ugly race riots.
Unfortunately, such narrow leads are just statistical noise. All it tells me is Romney is competitive, something I'd expect of almost any GOP nominee against this terrible a president.
But I wish this were October and not just June. I suppose SCOTUS’ Obamacare decision and their decision regarding Jan Brewer’s Illegal Immigration enforcement will be critical to momentum.
In a tie,
the democrats have control of 15 states
the republicans have control of 33 states
the other two (MN, NJ) are split
Its only going to get WORSE for obama as we still have 4-5 jobs reportings coming out. With higher weekly UE claims - July means another bad report.
Interestingly, there are more House republicans than House democrats for the state of Illinois.
Illinois would vote against Obama in a tiebreaker vote in the House.
What I would buy popcorn for everybody to see would be the states which entered into that stupid National Popular Vote pact being forced to vote for the GOP nominee even if the jackass carried their states. The looks on their faces would be priceless.
Obama’s goose is cooked.
Nah, Oblamea will give that important speech (important speech 3121) and instantly gain 50.
It sounds like the voters might be getting ready to “disenfranchise” Barry! Adios amigo!
Barack Obama reeks so badly that even traditional Democrat strongholds will be in play in November — and no traditional Republican stronghold is in serious danger of falling to Democrats. It could even look like the Reagan wipeout of Carter, though I cringe to think of how Mitt Romney will strut and preen thinking it was all about HIM. Oh look wow I’m the second Reagan, the first Mormon president, and the predicted Mormon savior of America. No you aren’t, stupid Mitt. You simply stink less than Barack Obama.
This has been the plan that dove tails perfectly with first causing the unemployment by breaking the private business sector, leading to the planned their unionization. Reportedly, Leo Gerard is taking unionization global to the already fiscally fallen countries abroad.
Pretty perfect timing to “never let a good crisis go to waste”. Anywhere.
Someone please explain the “tie”. They have Romney ahead in electoral votes aznd 2 states tied and not allotted. Would it be a tie if Obama wins those 2? Obviously it wouldn’t be if Romney wins them.
And how idiotic are most people in Pennsylvania? Oy.
