Sorry guys, its over. :D

Obama is leading in ALL the battleground states including Florida, Ohio and North Carolina.

voters increasingly view Romney unfavorably

I think Mitt knows its over, that's why we he fled the country. :lol:

If anything, the republican attacks have only strengthened Obama. Now the GOP is just projecting a desperate yet suddenly conciliatory facade.

We won, and the republicans are playing dead. Kick them when they are down.

Obama Expands National Lead Over Romney to 10 Points in Pew Poll - SFGate

Debate is over, you can start apologizing in this thread if you like.
 
Just keep telling yourself that. Apathy has cost the Dems many elections. The PEW poll has been discussed in these threads before. To achieve the result they wanted, they had to give Obama a Democrat advantage of 19% in the sampling. And they counted as white any one not AA or Hispanic, i.e. Asians, Native Americans etc where counted as White in arriving at the sampling.
 
Ouch.

This has to be hurting the Romney Express.

Of course, all polls are bullshit; we all know that....but this kind of news always has a way of hurting the one who has been fingered as having a bad case of flop sweat.

Maybe he'll get a bump at the convention as long as he just keeps his mouth shut and doesn't manage to offend the dwindling numbers of voters who would hold their nose and mark an 'X' by his name come November.

Wow. An actual cite from the Breibart express.

Talk about the Walking Dead.

Who is being apathetic? The last I checked, BO is campaigning more than ever lately. He has as many supporters at his campaign speeches as ever. The media is biased toward him more than ever. Confidence ≠ apathy. Just because a JustUsBoys poster has confidence does not mean voters are overconfident. There is no evidence of apathy among the Dems anywhere at the moment. You may want to pull your head out of the ground before you post.
 
We haven't even gotten to the Presidential debates yet, so I'm thinking there's still a long way to go before calling this election. While I'm not happy with the economic data that's coming out, I'm less happy with our Do Nothing congress/senate and scared shitless about Romneys tax plan and positions on things to not vote for Obama.

Btw, I look at inademocracy.com when I want to easily see the race in terms of all of the latest polling data. Don't think this last poll has been factored in yet.
 
Sorry you could not understand it. The danger for Democrats of polls and media support is the their base will think the election is in the bag, so why bestir themselves to vote.

You are hoping they will be apathetic, rather than showing evidence of them actually being apathetic.
 
How on Earth did Romney ever become the nominee? You can't trust a word that comes out of his mouth. He simply doesn't connect to anyone at all. Last thing the country wants to vote for is another wealthy, out of touch, corporate executive who doesn't pay taxes, was for Universal Healthcare before he was against it, is a clone of Bush Jr. on Foreign Policy, ships jobs overseas, was third from the bottom in job creation as Governor of MA, and changes positions with the way the wind blows.

And of all the candidates, they thought he was the best one??? Good grief.

you're kidding right?

Herman Cain, Michelle Bachman, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum were the alternatives this primary season

I'd say the Repubs made the right choice - the only choice

the primary eat your own scenario prompted Mitt (a mistake IMO) to veer right when in fact it's not how he's run or governed prior

but the setup is the setup

and you have to play within the rules
 
The real issue is that historically no President other than FDR has been reelected with an unemployment rate of 8+%. Every other current economic factor has a similar history as far a presidential elections go. Given the current situation either two things are going on here to explain why the two candidates are fairly neck and neck in a tight election, either Obama is a really, really good President or Romney is a really bad campaigner.

While Obama has been a fairly okay president, he is no FDR and I wouldn't call him a great leader. I don't think he is currently defying the odds on his personality alone and a health care plan that most of the American people still haven't accepted. Though, I do think it is his personality and campaigning skill that is keeping him from sinking.

On the other paw, it is fairly clear that the damage to the Republican brand from the Bush years, Romney's IMHO complete failure to mount an effective campaign as an alternative to Obama, a bloody overlong primary, and an internal bloodletting of RINO hunting devastating party moderates are pretty much the main causes for the Republicans to fail to gain ground in an election that should have been theirs to win.
 
No, the real difference is that Rassmussen polls likely voters, while most poll registered voters. Then the Pew poll gave the Dems a +19 advantage, far in excess of any historical advantage.
 
As I've said many times, I don't believe in polls. However I'm certain Romney doesn't have a chance in winning.
 
^ This really is making Republican heads explode isn't it?

I don't know. I think the writing is on the wall and we should just sit back and enjoy the show leading up to November, but there is no way I see Mitt pulling this off, based on much of the things I outlined above.
 
The reality is that the debates will be critical

and Romney has not shown on the stump that he can connect - he did a nice job on Gingrich in those 2 debates but Gingrich was window shopping for the job - no real organization - he wings it

Obama's team is ruthless and will have Obama more than ready for those debates

Romney's team (who is his team??) has not shown any chops and their candidate has not shown any eye of the tiger IMO

so it's lose lose

organization/preparation - Obama's favor
likeability/oratory - Obama's favor

Mitt should be way ahead at this point - far ahead in this economic shit show - but he's flat to down a little

he'll have to be a different guy at the debates then he's been and the economy will have to continue to be uber weak - for him to have a puncher's chance

again, the key point is that the incumbent, regardless of party affiliation, should be WAY behind now, reflecting the current misery index

But to think that one of the other primary Republicans would be doing better ............ not likely as they were fringey

Look at their candidate Romney. He's not very good. They had 4 years to dig through their party to find their Great White Hope and they present the voters with this creepy thing. Republicans always put up their candidate who's turn it is, not necessarily the best candidate for the job. Four years ago it was the ridiculous combination of McCain - Palin and now it's a super rich buffoon with zero charisma and no policies. It's just his turn.

Look at all the money being wasted polishing up a plastic moron who doesn't have a chance at all at success.
