Romney will take a hit over the 47% remark. Not for the remark per se (I doubt most voters know what he said or what it means), but because of the media shitstorm over Romney's "terrible gaffes". The substance of the remarks is immaterial. The only thing that matters is that "Romney keeps making stupid gaffes", is "gaffe prone", etc.

Last night, Jay Leno's opening monologue was about Romney's gaffes: "how does he have room for both that silver spoon and his foot in his mouth at the same time?", etc.

I look for Obamugabe to retake the lead for the rest of this week and into next week at least.

Exactly. The sheep won't think critically about this issue and attempt to understand the meaning of the 47% issue at all. They'll just read a headline or hear a soundbite from Chris Matthews and form their very uneducated opinion from that.

There’s an elevator in my building that works very slowly. So, there’s a TV that’s always turned onto some MSM cable news channel. I get to catch about 5 minutes of MSM news everyday.

I don’t remember a week starting with, oh, the Olympics that Romney didn’t make a gaffe that would spell the end of his campaign. And this is watching only about 20 minutes of MSM news a week. I can only imagine how constant the bombarding must be. The 47% might change a percent or two for a few days, but at this point, I don’t think there’s much that either Obama or Romney can say to change the state of the race.

On one hand, yeah, it sucks that Obama has a chance to get elected after his disastrous presidency and Romney should be leading by 15. On the other hand, if the public perception of Romney is a pile of poo, then it’s awesome that a pile of poo is running even with Obama.

IMO, only a Lehman moment (good for Romney), an Israeli strike (good for Obama), or a debate moment (who knows) will change the state of the race significantly. It’s going to be a brutal Election night.
