Mitt-I-don’t-care-about-the-poor-Romney will probably lose.

Too bad the GOP is fixing to put up Obama’s dream candidate against him. Romney should be Obama’s running mate not opposition candidate!

This is very misleading. With 270 electoral votes needed, Obama starts off with over 200 electoral votes in the bag where he doesn’t have to spend a dime: CA, NY, WA, WI, ME, DE, CT, IL, MA, NJ, are in the bag so to speak. He needs 70 more to put him over the top. Several former red states are now blue or trending blue. FL went for Obama in 2008. If the tide were to shift, however slightly, and a purple state falls into the blue column, its all over for Republicans. This is why we need a candidate who can appeal to blue-collar Reagan democrats and will not lose the crucial female vote. Don’t write off Santorum especially if he gets a win in MO. Gingrich is not on the ballot in MO.

And it looks like its very uphill for Gingrich to clinch the nomination. See this analysis below.

No wonder we end up with Romney’s and idiots in the GOP. (NOT shooting the OP messenger at all here) =) On what planet do you make predictions on state approval numbers? Anyone seen Romney approval numbers? They make Obama look like he’s Dwight Eisenhower after D-Day. Just today there was a poll putting. Ras’s daily tracking poll has Obama up 5 over Romney and 13 over Gingrich. And the GOP taking Oregon? Really?

Sick of the Elite trying to manipulate and suck us in assuming we are stupid. I mean has ANYONE predicted a state going Red or Blue based not on head to head, but on one Party’s candidate’s approval? And Romney is WAY below Obama in approval across the board.

Again, not taking this out on the OP but this is the kind of thinking that gets us the wrong candidates and loses elections for us.

*heavy sigh*

The prediction is Bush's 2004 states + Oregon, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire switching to Romney.

Point #1: Indiana, Florida, North Carolina, and Virginia all went for the Empty Suit last time, but all by slim margins. If the economy doesn't shape up fairly soon, they could (and likely may) go all Republican again.

Point #2 (which ties into #1): If #1 is the case, the GOP could run the guy on the Quaker Oats box and he'd win.

Maybe with such a landslide they can put the Dims back to red and the Republicans back to blue like they used to be.

Only a few pockets of resistance.

The Republican party is just outright stupid , had four freaking years to find a good candidate and look what they have came up with , I’m am a Republican but if this is our best we deserve four more years of the Muslim president. Come on people this isn’t funny anymore; It’s a pure outright sick joke.

Probably fails to take in the effect of all Government workers, all Union workers, all those below the poverty line (including all those that make less than 75,000), and those idiots just want Government to provide more money and services.

When Government provides minimal requirements that we need, who do you vote for?

We are lost!

First, this is Gallup. I don't trust Gallup polling.

Second, the author of this piece is mixing apples and oranges. He is basing his "analysis" on Obama job approval numbers. A lot of Demoncrats disapprove of the job he is doing, but will vote for him (probably more than once).

Given everything I see on this web site about people won't vote for anyone in the General Election except (fill in name of their true conservative here), I might just as well donate to Obama's re-election - at least I can then go an ask him for a job in his second term.
