How is this specific to Obama?By the way, the US military also did not accurately report deaths of soldiers at the hands of their fellow soldiers during the Vietnam War. |

Obama kicked off his campaign today. Ohio and Virginia. Two purple states that will decided the election.The candidates will spend a good amount of time in Ohio, Virgina, North Carolina and Florida. It's up to those four states. |

Obama has a better shot at carrying TX, Georgia (plus NC, IN, MO, AZ) and other such States than Romney has at carrying VA, OH and FL combined. |

If Romney carries FL, VA, and OH he will also carry NC. If he loses either FL, VA, or OH it won't matter whether or not he carries NC. |

Of all those states, Romney will win all but NC with ease (more than 5 percentage points). His margin of victory in NC will somewhat less than that, but he's still going to win. VA and OH will go whichever way the national trend blows, and Romney will win Florida somewhat handily.Next time you want to talk trash, verify the numbers actually back it up first |

It is, but statewide polling can be deceptive. Most "swing" states will trend whichever way the national mood goes (Ohio especially). Right now the numbers could be deceptive. In 2008, McCain was leading in OH, FL, NC and VA until the national mood swung towards Obama in mid October.The real arbiter of this race will be the September Jobs report. |

Obama won Florida by 3 points in 2008. That's pretty big. And after four years, the demographics favor him more.So we'll consider Florida a blue state now. VA, OH, and NC are the states they GOP has to focus on. They probably wish they had booked their convention in Greensboro or Columbus. |

It was more than a mood swing that changed things for McCain in Florida. He lost by 3 points in Florida. It's the demographics. They favor Democrats. Huge black and Latino population growth in Florida.North Carolina always had a large black population. Certain things happened there to drive blacks to vote, like the Rev Wright ads, Duke, and simply having a black candidate to vote for. |

Check the 2010 race.GOP won big time. Romney will win Florida unless something happens to really shake things up. I don't see another financial collapse of the magnitude of Lehman Brothers on the horizon. Of the big 3 swing states, (FL, VA, OH) Florida is by far the most likely to go Romney.I will make one prediction here which you can bookmark: all 3 of these states will be one by one candidate or the other. They will not be split up. They are national trend states which will go whichever campaign gains some autumn momentum. |

You forget I live in Florida.The GOP victories in Florida were not impressive. Alex Sink is nothing and she barely lost. Only reason she lost is because of the Tea Party momentum at the time. Rubio? LOL. Only reason he shined so bright is because he wound up in a three-way. Had he gone one-on-one vs. Charlie Crist I don't know that he would have won. That was a fiasco. Florida is the least likely to go Romney. You must think Florida is all Koran burning preachers and their flock. Not true. It's like being in NY in fact. Just warmer. |

Yes, he can win lose NC because of the minorities but win OH and possibly VA.I don't think Florida is in play for the GOP. I think they thought it would be and booked Tampa for their convention and now regret it. |

Yes, he can win lose NC because of the minorities but win OH and possibly VA.and how does this give him the Presidency? He's fucked. He's a throwaway candidate like Bob Dole was in '96. The GOP Establishment chose him because he won't damage other downballot candidates like somebody from that collection of freaks and clowns passing for a major party's nominating process would have. |

Oh, I think Obama will the election. I just misunderstood you. I think Romney will lose NC but can see him winning Ohio and possibly Virginia.Obama is not as big a deal as we was four years ago. But he does not have to be to win. America is changing. Changing in ways that will allow him to be less popular, but still win with no problem. |

You may live there. I paid attention to their politics.Republicans won big in 2010. Margin of victory is not as relevant as number of races won. There simply aren't enough non-Cuban Latinos and black voters to carry the state for Florida this time. |

I paid attention to. I live it every day and see why the GOP is in big trouble.There are enough minorities in Florida to guarantee Obama victory like they did in 2008. In fact, there are going to be more of them between 2008 and 2012. Cubans over age 55 or 60 give a shit about Castro and voting GOP. The younger ones are minority-minded and vote Democrat. THIW. |

Romney will put Rubio on the ticket and win Florida.It will still do him no good. OTOH, Rubio is smart and knows that failed GOP VP candidates are finished forever meaning that he may not accept to be his running mate. |

Romney could win Ohio, especially if Portman is his VP.Florida is lost because of all the minorities and northerners and changing attitudes in general. Obama won NC only because of the huge black turnout. If it's slightly lower in 2012 who knows what happens. It's going to be close. |

Obama doesn't have the spark he had in 2008. He won't get the huge turn out of Blacks, young people, etc that helped elect him in 2008. He also doesnt have the independents like he did in 2008. |

But there are more minorities able to vote in 2012 compared to 2008. And they have grown in numbers in FLA, NC, and other states vital to the GOP.

McCain wasn't damaged goods to American women the way Romney and the current GOP is.Obama's margin among female voters will be even greater than in 2008 thanks to the GOP's War on Women. His tally among Hispanics will also be greater than against the Hispanic-friendly, amnesty-loving McCain. You don't understand American political dynamics and what makes people tick just like you never understood the Republican Establishment's criteria when nominating a President. Also in 2008, war hero McCain could rightly hurl the accusation that then-Sen Obama was inexperienced in foreign and military policy. Considering my President's success in that field, the tables are turned on the wimpy, draft-dodging, "we will not attack bin Laden in Pakistan" Etch-a-Sketcher. |
