Plus in the case of Florida look at Rubio. He was elected with a conservative viewpoint and articulated the same themes Romney and Ryan are. How do you explain his election? All old people are not senile and taken in by MSNBC, CNN and the rest of the left wing talking heads.
Write it down and see if I'm wrong or right.

I was right about Ryan too.

I personally had someone from a local union come to my home, ask to speak to me and my wife (she knew our names) and offer to let us vote right here and turn in our ballots for us.
JD wont beleive that, acorn did nothing wrong according to him probably !

Romney will win Pennsylvania and Arizona too, but it won't be enough.


I suspect Romney will spend a lot of time and money in Virginia, but he will lose Ohio, regardless of the time and money he spends there.

Romney will also lose Massachussetts, and it will be an embarassing loss, but not an unexpected loss.

Romney will not win Florida and he will not win Ohio.

Behold, your President today and President for the next four years!
You are smoking crack JD

For example when it comes to judges a Romney appointed Supreme Court Justice would most likely be more moderate than conservative. However an Obama appointed Supreme Court Justice (or any other Federal Judicial appointment) is 100% for sure going to be a left wing liberal who will bend and twist the constitution. It is irresponsible not to opt for the option that at least has a chance of being ok.
This is sensible and astute political analysis. Honestly, the reasoning some people use approaching the voting booth is baffling. But to me the truth seems pretty plain and simple---as in the content of the post above.

Again, spot on.

Also, JD speaks so confidently about OH going with Obama. Yet, last election OH voters booted the Dems out of power in the statehouse as well as the Governor's mansion. And that's after the state GOP lost power the election before with lots of corruption and mishandling the state economy. The Dems were so bad the voters turned right around and gave the power back to the GOP. And the state has improved since. Under John Kasich the GOP governor, Ohio has seen jobs return as the environment for business has improved and entrepreneurs feel co fix dent to hire and grow their businesses.

Obama has lost support among groups such as the coal miners unions because of his aggressive policies that have hurt the coal industry. This past week polling showed OH moving toward Romney/Ryan.

So it's easy to say, "Obama will win OH", but give us more than an empty statement. Give us some substance to back up the claim.

Well I was right about Palin in 2008 and that was a shocker for most folks. Ryan was always in the top three choices. I don't know that your prediction was all that amazing. It certainly doesn't qualify your predictions about the election.
