Seriously guys, it's time for Obama to stick a fork in his campaign and go off to write his memoirs or something.... the guy is done for.
No, that's not a bottomless assertion! I've got the numbers.... and they're all confirmed by the major news media and all stat analysts.
Ohio: Romney has 2.4% edge over Obama (Most recent poll put Romney at 50%, Obama at 45% in that state)
Virginia: Romney has a 0.6% edge over Obama (Most recent poll puts Romney at 49%, Obama at 46%)
Iowa: Romney has a 1.7% edge over Obama (Most recent poll puts Romney at 50%, Obama at 45%)
New Hampshire: Romney has a 2.1% edge over Obama (Most recent poll puts Romney at 49%, Obama at 47%)
Nevada: Romney has a 3.2% edge over Obama (Most recent poll puts Romney at 50%, Obama at 46%)
Wisconsin: Romney has a 3.5% edge over Obama (Most recent poll puts Romney at 51%, Obama at 46%)
Pennsylvania: Romney has a 4.9% edge over Obama
There are worse numbers but I'm too depressed to even discuss it. Still, the polls aren't even as bad as the early voting turnout! The GOP is kicking our ass there!!!
In early voting ballots Florida (an Obama stronghold!) holds an edge for Romney of 40,000 ballots!
Romney is leading Obama in Nevada in early voting, 45% Romney to 38% Obama!
Romney is leading Obama in Iowa in early voting, 44.6% Romney to 32% Obama!
Romney is leading Obama in North Carolina in early voting, 48.3% Romney to 31.9% Obama!
Also (ouch!) Romney is leading Obama in Ohio in early voting, 60% Romney to 30% Obama!
Sucker-punch!
Oh sure, there may be a few glimpses of hope for Obama in the national polls, what with Gallup, NPR and Washington Post/ABC... but as Al Gore said, "The popular vote plus two bucks will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks." Well, he should know :-(
Plus even the national polls aren't that good for Obama. Romney leads in 5 out of 8 polls.
Sigh.
Wait... what?
Wait.. Obama is the blue numbers and Romney is the red numbers?
Soo.... all the numbers I've been giving Romney actually belong to Obama???
Oh.
Ooops.
Guess we're gonna win after all. :-)
Moral of the story: Look guys, definitely GOTV in your spare time and do what you can to help Obama win this country and continue to get it back on track. But, for God's sake. STOP the hand-wringing! You seriously don't want Romney's numbers.
Really. You don't.
