I don’t think I’d put money in PA just yet, but the rest are very possible.

I think Romney is going to proved Obama a mirror image of the McCain race. VA, FL, IN, NC flips back to GOP easily, whereas Romney could win Iowa much like Obama won North Carolina, and Wisconsin could be the flipside of VA. New Hampshire or Colorado is Indiana...basically just a flip of 2008.

I think Romney is going to win Wisconsin, Iowa, Florida, Indiana, Colorado, and NC. I think Obama will hold Virginia. In this scenerio, Romney needs to win Minnesota, Michican, Ohio, Pennsylvania, OR New Hampshire AND Nevada.

If His Excellency, AKA IWON, gets to see that report while roosting upside down from one of the rafters in the White House attic, he might just blow. It is definitely the time for Romney to turn the fire up even higher. O is wrapped so tight, he will go off with little provocation especially if his internal polls show exactly what that poll shows: him losing most of the swing states.

There has even been a subtle change in the lap dog media lately too. He is actually getting challenged on occasion. His comment yesterday that the OHIO spelling was an altered photo, the press reported it was not. Small almost unnoticeable changes may become more of a torrent when it gets closer to the election. The IWON will not be able to handle it, bank on that.

In light of the documentary out on him, someone should ask him if his apology tour of two years ago supports the contention made in the movie. That would definitely do it!

Which leads to my new Nightmare Scenario....

On the night before the election a freak early season Noreaster roars up the East Coast and dumps over a foot of snow from D.C. to Boston.

The City of Philadelphia is buried in blizzard conditions. It is basically shut down. Unable to move or go anywhere, turnout in the Philadelphia region is historically light, allowing Romney to take Pennsylvania.

The next day the NAACP, Urban League, New Black Panthers, and all other usual suspects gin up an outcry that they have been “disenfranchised” and demand a do-over. But nothing in Pennsylvania or Federal Law permits this.

The result is protests, rioting, chaos in the streets, and, eventually, Martial Law.

I’m really hoping it just rains.

If Romney fights for PA, he can win PA... Don’t kid yourself. PA Democrats outside of Philly area, are NOT left wing ideologues, they are BLUE DOGS, and Obama has basically lost them.

Romney brings the fight to PA, he very well can win it. If he doens’t fight for it he probably won’t.

Obama is LOST in the South and the Rust Belt!

Only state in the south he may hold could be VA with the DC area skewing the state. Obama will lose NC, FL

In the Rust belt, the ONLY 2 states safe for Obama are MN and IL. Obama will lose IA,WI,IN and OH easily.

PA and MI are battleground, if Romney fights for them, he can win them. Ff Romney fights for PA and MI, best Obama can do is spend a crap load of time and money hope for a squeaker to hold them, and honestly I don’t think he can hold PA if Romney fights for it.

The polls are crap folks. PA and MI are currently battleground, Romney fights for him, he can win them.

Obama’s flat out animosity toward the Blue Dog voter, makes him a Dead Man Walking throughout the rust belt and south.

Obama, Pelosi and Reid have driven the Democratic party over a demographic cliff. They have lost the Working Class White Voter (the blue dogs) and no democrat can win without this continengent.

Obama is heading for an electoral loss where at best he can do is get 42-43% of the popular vote, and in reality, could very well not even get 40% of the vote. He may get less of the popular vote than any incumbent president Herbert Hoover in 1932, and very well may get less than Hoover did.
