Romney wins Florida. No-brainer. Obama's Ohio lead is an illusion. 512 Paths to the White House

[Venturer]

One thing about the New York Slimes, they never stop pimping for Obama.

No lie too big, no path untried.

I expect some there will be suicidal tomorrow.

The article starts with the assumption that Michigan, Pennsylvania and Minnesota are all guaranteed for Obama. I guess 4096 Paths to the White House would have been too difficult.

By limiting this to only the supposed battleground states they are able to construct a graphic with the headline of Obama 431 ways to win and Romeny 76 ways to win.

a pretty interesting graphic, my hats off to the designers. But it has, IMHO, a fatal flaw. By limiting this to only the supposed battleground states they are able to construct a graphic with the headline of Obama 431 ways to win and Romney a mere 76 ways to win. No bias there, huh?

The real question is what happens if Romney sneaks up and takes some states that everyone projected as safe for Obama. At that point, depending on which states, all bets are off and the ways Romney can win multiply exponentially.

But then I wouldn't expect the Times to mention that.
