Florida just discovered 20,000 votes for Al Gore.

Well, I should have phrased it a different way. I know WHY they do.

In short I just think they're dumb

Why are blacks voting for Obama? Unemployment has hit black people much harder than anyone else. Seems like they're voting against their own interest.

Why does Mississippi

the poorest state in the country

vote for Romney?

Maybe they'd like to NOT be the poorest state in the country?

[Denny Crane]

Romney 4,785,334 - 52%
Obama 4,352,140 - 47.3%

That hasn't changed in YEARS

It's what they are.

Unless something really crazy happens (and with Romney taking back Indiana, that seems very unlikely now); there are 5 key swing states that the polls show are in play:

Virginia; Ohio; Florida; Colorado and Wisconsin.

If Romney loses Florida, he can't win.

Also, he has to win North Carolina, which he is expected to, but if Obama takes it, he will win.

If Romney loses Virginia (but wins FL and NC), he will probably lose, but he could win if he wins Ohio and most of WI, CO, IA, NV, NH. Not a good chance of that if he can't win in Virginia.

If Romney loses Ohio, he must have won Virginia, and he can still win by getting Colorado, and also IA & NH.


If Obama loses any of his early "safe" states he is toast: Pennsylvania, Michigan or Minnesota.

If Obama loses Virginia, he pretty much has to win in Ohio or he is toast.

If Obama loses Ohio:
and has won Virginia, he really needs to win Wisconsin or Colorado, plus a couple from NV, IA, NH.
and has lost Virginia, he needs to win ALL of WI, CO, NV, IA and NH.

Ohio had only a 46.8% turnout to 74.8% of republican turn outs. Also a few demo counties have dropped 9 points to the 2008 election

The big democratic party counties are mostly counted there, but not the republican ones.
