The man speaks with incredible confidence. Some of these guys that really understand the polls and look at them from a different perspective can pretty much say, as this guy did, that the data prior to debate and after means Obama can’t win those states.

First of all, if this is true, it is idiotic.

Even if it looks like Romney is a sure winner in those states today, as we have just seen, things can turn around very quickly.

As for the bigger picture, I still think Ohio is THE key. Whoever wins there, wins the whole thing.

Here’s what he said—says that Obama was 46% before debate which is a very poor place to be for an incumbent because of difficulty to climb to 50 (already a known quantity). He says they’re looking at the polling data in Virginia and Florida and it’s overwhelming (to Romney).

I live in Fairfax Count, too. I don't consider Fairfax a swing county at all. It is solidly democrat. Many of the more affluent precincts are often 50-50 at best.

Loudoun and Prince William counties are the more typical swing counties. Many of the repubs have long fled Fairfax.

Hard to believe he suddenly sees them as ‘locks’ the other way. Though I expect they’re looking pretty good after the debate.

The "undecided" voters usually break against the incumbent. If you like what Obama has done in the last 4 years, wouldn't you have already decided to vote for Obama? If not, is there anything that Obama could possibly do in the next few weeks to convince you that he hasn't done already? I think that's the logic here.

I'm really starting to look forward to the possibility of draining the swamp in in Washington DC in January 2013

OK...I see your corrected comment. Why do you think Fairfax is going Romney? Fairfax has changed considerably in the last 20 years. Any Fairfax County precinct inside the Beltway is solidly Obama, many by large margins. Those outside the Beltway are more mixed, but even in places like Centerville where you would expect a large Republican vote, it's just so-so.

Defense contractor workers can help offset some of the dem vote, but it will be tough. If you are correct and Romney wins Fairfax County, Virginia will be a blowout state for Romney by a huge percent.

The Shenandoah Valley area votes about 65 to 70% Republican in a bad year. I would not be surprised to see Southwest Virginia voting at 75 to 80% Romney. If Romney takes Fairfax County, he will win the state by 15 to 20 points.

voting for a guy that will just be a spoiler is wasting a vote, unless you want the race to be spoiled.

Isn't that the goal? To give the GOPe a lesson? To give them right to gloat, "I told you so?" For them, pardon my French, to get climax from their mental masturbation?

A lot IS going Romney’s way now.
But he’s talking about approximately a 10 point swing from small Obama lead to overwhelming Romney lead in just about a week.

Well, it’s his rep on the line and he knows it.

A poller I follow has the House Republican candidates doing a lot better in the past week too. Maybe the nightmare will end.

If Suffolk is still polling in Indiana, they’re really wasting their time and money; that state went into the Romney column a long time ago.

Stafford County now has about 150,000 people. Even though many are leftists from up north many more are conservative refugees from Fairfax and Prince William counties.

Stafford County will still go for Romney and by a pretty decent percentage.

As a side note, I wish Stafford still had only 50K people and was almost entirely conservative but we can’t turn back time.
