Hmm, if this were true why are the Republicans OVERPERFORMING in every county I've looked at so far (Hamilton, Franklin, Cayahoga, Starke) and Obama hugely underperforming in absentee ballots?

Consider Cayahoga, a Dem stronghold, Obama win by 68-30 in 2008. Absentees now showing 54-24 split---Rs down six, but Dems down 14!!!?

Or Franklin (Columbus), which Obama won by 21 points (!!) and now he is trailing in absolute numbers by 5,500 absentee ballots---and that number has increased by 1500 in the past week.

Or Hamilton (Cincy), where Obama won by 7 in 2008 but now the Rs have a 2:1 absentee advantage?

If Obama is so far ahead, why is he running prime time TV adds in California?

I asked the same thing about AL and the answer was “fundraising.” Really?

Well, I remember 1980 (I was in the 4th Grade). The Hostages were in Iran. We had to wait in line for a block to get gas. The Evening News (yes, I watched the news when I was 10), talked about inflation, unemployment and the interest rates. The President went on TV and blamed Americans for their bad attitude and told us we should wear more sweaters. He also threaten the Soviets that if they didn't leave Afghanistan than we would let them win all the gold medals in the Olympic by default. He said in the debate that his daughter (who was about my age at the time), was afraid there will be an atomic war if he was any tougher on the Russians.

In the meantime the election was too close to call...

...until 15 minutes after the polls closed in the East.

There isn’t one economic indicator that is positive for President

Actually, I think there is one in his favor.........all those new additions to food stamps and "disability". More welfare recipients means more votes for The One.
