I also think that VA (around the DC area) is full of govt. workers who are doing just great in this recession with Zero in the WH.
“Third party spoiler is polling at 9% in Virginia”
Yipes, if this is the case, it’s not looking goode (pun intended) for Romney in Virginia.
If Goode’s support hangs in there, I’m guessing that whoever wins VA this time around will do so with a plurality, not a majority.
Romney probably won’t win in the electoral college without Virginia. This is going to be a tough one for him.
Just wondering....
Not long ago, right here on FR, there were folks proclaiming:
“Anyone can beat Obama”
“My dog could beat Obama”
“A Coke could beat Obama”...
What happened?
so if Obama releases a phony jobs report every day for the next 89 days in a row he’ll be golden...

Don’t forget the one about Romney winning a Reagan Landslide. These folks saying all of those things are not in reality that number 1 Romney is very liberal and 2. the population has changed considerably since the Reagan days. It is going to be a VERY close election which I have said from the beginning. Colorado will be the deciding winner and I am sticking with that too.
True, but if he keeps a 4% margin, the EC should follow. (”should”)
You are overcomplicating it. Nothing has changed in Northern VA compared to past election and McDonnell won handily against his white democrat opponent. It has always been stuffed with limosine liberals and always will be. The reason Doug Wilder won Virginia 25 years ago, the reason Obama won Virginia in 2008, and the reason Obama leads in Virginia is because of his race. Virginia is still basically a red state. If Clinton were on the ballot instead, s/he’d lose by 10. The only way Romney wins Virginia is if he can take Hampton Roads by a large number and the only way he can do that is with Petraeus or some other military type.
It’s bogus. A poll yesterday of northern VA, which ZEro won by 20 in 08, shows him up two. He simply can’t win with that # in northern VA..
The Lefties have gone very quiet with all their national popular vote rubbish this year...
Indeed they have. However, if memory (and it’s not that great) serves me right, he who wins the popular vote also gets CA’s electors because of a law they passed.
Can anyone confirm that?
wait. I just did.

If Romney can win the popular vote.. He’ll get CA’s electors (till Obama and co run off to court to try an stop it)
