I’ve been a repeat of 1980 for a while.

The MSM demonized Reagan.

Carter lead until the debates.

When people saw Reagan in the debates, they realized the MSM portrayal of Reagan was wrong, and that it would be OK to vote for Reagan. The tide stared turning.

A couple of days before the election, Carter’s support evaporated as people—when faced with finally having to make a decision—decided the country couldn’t survive 4 more years of Carter.

Reagan won in a landslide.

I believe the same cycle is working in the Obama/Romney race. Now that voters are faced with making a decision, they are deciding that the country can’t take 4 more years of Obama.

Romney will win in a landslide.

A couple of differences with 1980. There was the massive early voting that there is today. Also, Obama's ground game and win-at-all-costs philosophy makes Carter look like he was running for high school president.

If these numbers are even half-way true, Romney wins comfortably.
