Obama has this in the bag....
Obama has this in the bag....
Romney is smarter than Obama. Romney has more real world experience. Obama has more Foreign policy experience. Obama also has a crappy record to defend. it depends if the debates are real debates or nothing more than speeches
The referendum that your referring to may very well reverse itself and be a loser for the far right.
I said if the election were today Obama would lose...but by november if he demonstrates the real ideas of the Norquist far right and he brings up examples like Scott walker...he will win...
He needs to bring out Paul Ryans plan that will kill medicare...and replace it with his own plan..thats what he needs to do in my mind to assure he wins.
Romney stands the best chance of screwing up in the next months CP...hes not going to be able to hide and evade soon...its down to two and the media is going to have at him..
It seems to me ya'll are placing alot more emphasis on the debates vice the conditions on the ground than we are. Wonder why that is.
The conditions on the ground are subject to spin.
You are basing your opinion on your spin, while we are basing our opinion on our spin of the conditions of the ground, ie that things are improving.

If they're real debates it may be hard for Romney to remember what his story is at the moment.Romney is smarter than Obama. Romney has more real world experience.

When you spin like a weather vane it must be difficult to know which way you're pointing.
The conditions on the ground currently is that he is pretty much neck and neck with Romney in the polls (because of, or in spite of the economic conditions, depending on how you look at it.)
Debates are months away and you're playing the race card already? This has to be some sort of record.
I'm certainly counting on Romney's arrogance to loose votes.Romney will have no problem remembering obama is a failure and he is not
Precisely. He is neck-and-neck with a challenger who doesn't excite his base, who feels like white bread, who just got done with a long, bruising primary, who has been running into a media smash campaign, and who doesn't connect well with average voters. And he is already neck-and-neck months out - under conditions when traditionally undecideds break against an incumbent. Voter impressions of the economy tend to lag a bit - and the economy did better in the first quarter than it did in the second and looks to do in the third. What we are seeing right now are likely to be the best conditions Obama gets... and he is neck and neck.
LOL-given how wrong you usually are on many other issues, this should give Romney some real confidence
I think Obama is easily the favorite, but it is far from a sure thing.
Contradiction.
Contradiction.
Obama is the likely winner, it will take several gaffes by the Obama campaign(which is highly unlikely) or the economy going into another depression before election time for Romney to win IMO. Obama will wipe the floor with Romney in the debates and I think that will swing a lot of people.
I am somewhat sure he will win. The incumbent has and advantage... I think Mitt Romney is a weak candidate who will has a problem connecting with the voter.
And at this point, there's simply no telling what will happen within the next few months that might swing the polls either way. It's simply too early to come to the conclusion that "these are likely the best conditions Obama gets." Things could get a hell of a lot worse, they could also unexpectedly get better.
I wonder how many people are honestly saying what they think will happen versus what they hope will happen
