Bob Beckel on The Five says, “it’s over”.

I just heard that and just about fell over.

There are LOT of older people in Allegheny County (home to Pittsburgh), veterans in Western PA, coal is big too. W PA, while Democratic, is largely culturally conservative, patriotic etc. Something is happening all over the country.

I have seriously started to ask how I’m going to deal with it when “the long national nightmare is over,” to borrow a phrase from Gerald Ford at the end of the Watergate crisis after Richard Nixon resigned.

I may go into shock. Joyous news can be just a shocking as bad news. The end of the Obama Regime would have to rank as the most joyous news I will have ever heard in my life — after the Good News of the Gospel.

If you do, you’re as stupid as the people who believe “those binders are full of women” remark is sexist.

That is probably right in Montgomery county. I think Bucks, Delaware and Chester Counties are a bit more likely to go back to their roots. BTW, I grew up in Delaware county. Philadelphia and its suburbs is the model for just about any large town or city in PA. I live outside Harrisburg now, and the hood vote is completely offset by two townships outside Harrisburg. Pick a town ... State College, Scranton, Wilkes Barre, Allentown, Reading, Erie, Pittsburgh, York ... All Rat towns, but area immediately outside is going Red this year. The key to offsetting Philadelphia is to have three or four counties, not townships, to offset their vote.

This excites me to no end, but I want to see the post-second debate numbers before I truly believe. Love to see a Landslide!

I live in the Philly suburbs and go to law school in the area as well. I can tell you right now I see minimal support for Obama other than the Union for Obama signs on the boulevard. Even at law school, there’s not even a big Obama consensus. I’ve been openly discussing his lies from the debate, with lots in earshot, with no one interjecting to defend him.

I would not be surprised one bit. I live right outside of Philly and the Obama signs are almost completely absent! 5 or six on my commute into Philly. I think the independents who voted for 0 last time will get over their pride and vote Romney. Especially when it looks like he might win. They just want to be part of the winning side.

Holy Lord. That’s the ballgame if even within MOE.

I live in New York City, in the outer borough of Queens. Yesterday, I had to take my wife to the dentist because she was in pain the night before (she needs a crown). We have a great dentist on the Upper East Side of Manhattan (all Liberals up there). I took my son to get something to eat at a bakery nearby. They had some tables where people can sit and eat and drink their coffee.

They had a TV and “The View” was on. They were showing highlights from the debate. An older couple was sitting next to an older woman a few tables away from me. The older couple asked the older woman next to them what she thought about the debate (they obviously didn’t know each other).

So she starts out by saying “well, I think he did much better, but......”. Notice that she didn’t say “I think Obama did better”. Instead, she just said “I think HE did better”. In other words, this area is so Liberal that she only has to say “I think HE did better” (to a total stranger), and it’s a given that she’s referring to Obama.

Her full comment was “I think he did better but, I don’t think it’ll make much difference”. By this point, I was intently watching and listening to this conversation, but the room was noisy, so I didn’t catch everything they said.

But here’s the bottom line: These were hard core Liberals, and the looks on their faces and their body language indicated that they know Obama is going down. Just the fact that the older couple felt the need to ask a stranger what she thought of the debate shows how desperate they are for any kind of good news. So when the older lady said “I don’t think it’ll make much difference”, the older couple looked as though she confirmed exactly what they were feeling.

Take this for what it’s worth, but I think it’s worth a lot, considering that only a few weeks ago, Liberals still thought Obama had the election in the bag.

If he has PA, Romney has about 320 EVs. I am wrong in my original prediction, I think, of 330. I don’t see how he gets NM.

Actually the Holy-O beat McCain in PA by just over 10% in 2008.

I have absolutely zero trust of anything or anyone in the media or in politics.

My wife is worse. She believes the elections are rigged.

When I got to thinking about it, so I could prove her wrong, I discovered that I couldn’t really.

That poll was devastating to The Disaster. It over sampled Ds by 6% and could not come up with a victory for him.
