Blowout or Razor Thin?

Blowout or Razor thin?

  • Total voters
    58
  • Poll closed .
The blowout will be so big and Romney will take so many states that everyone thinks lean obama that the media will be standing around with their jaws on their chest unable to speak a single word which will be a refreshing change. I have been right on every election since I came of voting age and I feel more strongly on this than ever before. I have a knack for judging the mood of the nation. Mark my words and you can all bow and kiss my ring the day after the election.:)

Users are scrapping over whether November will see a blowout for their candidate or a razor thin decision, possibly including a spoiler by a third party.

So, do you think it will be a blowout or a razor thin decision?

FYI: Poll is public as usual. We can tell if you decide to be a immature child and spam the poll as a guest.

I think that it will be rather close, and flip a coin as to who wins.
 
I'm thinking blowout might be a little strong but I am expecting Romney to win relatively easily. About 5-6% nationally and somewhere around 330 EV. I'm basing this on what I'm seeing in Wisconsin. Polls have this state a toss up with the rolling average tilting ever so slightly Obama. Romney is going to win this state by at least 5%. Write it down.
 
Romney. Because I believe there is still enough positive in America.
 
Razor thin for Romney only because of his late rally. Although the Hurricane could throw a wrench in it
 
I voted razor-thin for Obama. Since Tagg Romney has control of some of the voting machines, he'll make it a close one.

LOL there is a conspiracy thread. Vote fraud tends to be a dem proclivity. The people most likely to be manipulated are those most likely to vote den
 
Obama takes the electoral comfortably--by that i mean he will win OH, NV, CO..by decent margins.
The popular will be really really close specially because of Sandy-presuming it takes some votes from Obama

Glad to give you a laugh. I've avoided reading most of the voter fraud in the news. It reminds me of the Acorn days and those are not some of my fondest memories. That's another story for another day and off the topic here.

No, I don't really think Tagg will contribute to voter fraud. If he does, he'll do it in a stupid way and get caught.

I tend to agree with this. I find it difficult to believe that Ohio seems to be polling almost 3 points more Democratic than the national vote, and is likely to be the tipping point state. I think it's more likely that either the national polls are overestimating Romney's standing or the Ohio polls are overestimating Obama's standing (or both).

Well, Ohio’s unemployment is lower than it has been in 4 years and is under the national average. And I also understand that something like 1 in 8 jobs in Ohio are linked to the automobile industry. I don’t think it should be too surprising that Obama would have a slight edge there.

I can believe that he'd have a slight edge there relative to the popular vote...I find it difficult to believe that he has a 3-point edge in the (likely) tipping point state relative to his popular vote though. Generally the tipping point state is within 1 point of the national popular vote. Even in 2008, which had the biggest deviation in recent history, the tipping point state (Colorado) was only 1.7% more Democratic than the popular vote.

I think it's more likely that either the Ohio polls or the national polls (or both) are getting it wrong, and the results will actually be more in line with each other.
