Vegas Oddsmaker: Why Obama Will Lose in a Landslide

This guy is saying exactly what I've been saying for a couple of months now. And, I might add, I pray that Romney pics Rubio for his VP.... We need Florida and we need every Hispanic vote we can get. If we lose Florida and Ohio, we lose the White House. We've got to have one of them

[PreciousLiberty]

You posted that this is from July 6, but it's from May 30. FYI.

Perhaps the mods can change it.

[pistolpackinpapa]

My bad.

I believe the true observation here is that 2012’s race is nothing compared to the 2008 race. You can probably toss out three of every ten votes that President Obama got in 2008. So the only key left in this race is a state by state electoral situation, where the President might be able to get just enough electoral vote to win. Otherwise, it’s pretty much a repeat of the Jimmy Carter loss.

Somewhere in the midst of the spring of 2013....at least a hundred books will appear to explain how President Obama lost the race. I suspect forty or fifty people are already writing their books right now.

Excellent analysis.

This is a feel good article.... I love reading good news on a Sunday morning....

Thanks

I would rather Romney pick someone who is eligible to run....Rubio is not. We act like Rubio is the only Hispanic in the United States. He will pick Portman. He has pretty much said so indirectly.

Posted long ago.....

And the Vegas oddsmakers called the SC decision strongly that Obamacare would be overturned....

How did that work out for us?

At this point, only God knows. And as usual - He ain’t tellin’.

Caution, never under estimate a rat backed into a corner. There will be an October surprise, that may hurt.

November will be upon us in short order. It's all as true as it was on 30 May. My cat, Charlie, could beat Obama in a landslide. Seriously, what's to think about? - why would anyone vote FOR Obama?

The really sad part is that the GOP-e was able to install a quisling as the presumptive nominee. A Romney presidency looks to me like 4 years of reaching across the aisle a la McCain, Dole etc.

I say liberalism/progressivism needs to be recognized as unconstitutional and outlawed. I also believe that the Klan Party (democrats) have used the Obama regime to make it impossible for America to even consider a mixed race candidate again for 100 years - sad, really because we have so many great black conservatives IMO

[astounded]

I agree with you. I regularly read comments following articles in many newspapers and websites. My observation is that, in 2009, after Obama was inaugurated, comments being posted were running 95-99% pro-Obama. GOP voters or conservatives were on the run. Now, in 2012, the proportion has flipped, depending on the venue. Even in the NYT and WaPO, I see anti-Obama comments, in the latter maybe 80%, in th Times, maybe 25-50%, depending on the topic. It’s been a sea change, and it gives me confidence that Americans have seen Obama and the criminal democrat party - and the criminally complicit MSM - for what they are and have done to our country. We will take it back, we wil prevail.

However, I vehemently oppose Marco Rubio as VP for two reasons, unrelated to his politics because I am behind him all the way as a Senator. First -he is much too young, and will be devastated by the MSM attacks on him from that angle. Second - he is not a natural born citizen of the US, just like Barack Obama. But, he is a conservative, so that issue will be key with the media. They will crucify him and the GOP - mark my words. He is ineligible to become POTUS.

Marco Rubio

born May 28, 1971 in Miami, FL

Parents were
Mario Rubio born in Cuba, naturalized Nov. 5, 1975.
Oria Garcia born in Cuba, naturalized Nov. 5, 1975.

Parents were NOT US Citizens at the time of his birth

Marco Rubio is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.

Marco's status is the same as that of Barry Soetoro, aka Barack Hussein Obama, who is NOT a Natural Born Citizen.

While he listed tons of *groups that will vote Romeny or ABO, there are many *groups that will vote 'rat:

*EBT - The EBT voters need 0bama to win and will come out in droves to vote. This group has GROWN substantially in the last 3 1/2 years, to 45 millions.

*GovtWorkers - Will vote big for the 'rat.

*Dead - There are probably millions of new dead voters that will vote 'Rat. Zer0's gift-to-his-campaign program, now to include funerals that donate voters will vote 'rat.

I probably left a bunch of others out...

I can’t think of a single October surprise scenario that would help Obama.

Thanks for posting.

Morning in America? Maybe not, but it feels kind of like that day of the year when the clock is turned back by an hour and you realize that there is another hour of sunlight. Heh.

[MachIV]

Most Americans have no idea who the h@ll Rob Portman is. He may be a great conservative, but he’s a political John Doe to the overwelming majority of Americans. In otherwords, he does nothing for Romney......probably not even in Ohio.

[SeekAndFind]

BTW, for our education, can you tell us what US law tells us that both your parents must be citizens at the time of your birth for you to be considered natural born?

[usconservative]

First, most pollsters are missing one ingredient- common sense. Here is my gut instinct. Not one American who voted for McCain 4 years ago will switch to Obama. Not one in all the land. But many millions of people who voted for an unknown Obama 4 years ago are angry, disillusioned, turned off, or scared about the future. Voters know Obama now- and that is a bad harbinger.

I had posted the list of the top 10 things I've heard people say which indicate they will NOT vote for Obama (without directly saying they won't) somewhere in the last month or so on this forum. One of the things I said at that time that you won't hear this election is this: "I didn't vote for Obama in 2008, but I plan to in 2012."

You won't hear a single person saying that. In fact, you hear the exact opposite, along with these other "key indicators" which perhaps you'll recognize:

•It's none of anyone's business who I'm voting for this time.
•I haven't made up my mind yet.
•I think Obama's a likeable guy.
•I'm concerned about the economy.
•My kid who graduated college last year still can’t find a job.
•I'm concerned about my family's well being.
•I'm doing ok, but my friends are really hurting economically.
•My home value has dropped so much these last few years, and there's no end in sight.
•I'm afraid I'll never be able to retire.

All the above are a sure sign that the person stating them will NOT be voting for Obama, and I've been hearing alot of people say the above for many months now.

An unemployment rate above 8% 41 straight months is a sure fire way to lose an election. To understand just how bad 41 straight months of 8%+ unemployment really is, in the last 60 years, there's only been 39 months TOTAL of unemployment over 8%. Worst Economy Ever.

but Obama's going to 'wag the dog' with something in September or October and you know that Holder is never going to touch the ACORN crowd

Marxists don't relinquish power in a well behaved manner and as always the will of the people be damned

We have had enough of these amatures. One can only hope that in the years to come we sik the dogs on these anti Americans and prosecute them for crimes against the American people.
