AssPress is doing their part to reelect 0bama.
Iowa is “leaning” to Obama? Just after all four Newspapers of merit endorsed Romney?
If out of the blue, suddenly those toss up states are now “leaning to Obama” and yeah, this new math WOULD favor Obama
Horse manure. No way is Indiana leaning Romney. It is in the bag for Romney.
So are most of those states leaning Obama.
AP is full of Ocrap.

LOL!
These people try so hard, dont they?
The map makes it look like Romney needs to wrest WI, OH, IA, PA or MI from The W0n.
If they’re willing to lie about or ignore all the relevant news about Benghazi, then for them lying about or ignoring all the relevant data about this election is a walk in the park.
My takeaway from this article is that the Obama camp already know it has lost Florida.

I haven’t been paying much attention to each state’s election laws or the electoral math counts but haven’t there been changes to something on the order of 10 states’ laws to split the electoral vote along popular vote lines within the state (or at least apportion electoral votes)? Have the math counts been taking that into consideration or have they still been using the “winner takes all” measure?
They’re not counting the same swing states that RCP is. Here are Romney’s possible paths to victory if the election is close.
Romney needs to get a base of 248 EVs including VA, NC and FL. Then he has several ways to carve up the swing states and win. My favored target is with WI, CO and NH.
Swing states:
Pennsylvania (20)
Ohio (18)
Michigan (16)
Wisconsin (10)
Colorado (9)
Iowa (6)
Nevada (6)
New Hampshire (4)
Winning OH gets him 266. He needs any one of the other 7 remaining swing states to win, the smallest being NH.
Winning PA puts him in the same position at 268 of needing one more state.
Winning MI puts him in almost the same position, except NH wouldn’t be enough to put him over the top then, he’d need any one of the other bigger states.
Winning WI gives him 258 EVs. He needs 12 more EVs to win. It could be CO and any one of NH, IA or NV, or it could just be IA and NV.
If he misses all those bigger states, then he needs all 4 of CO, IA, NV and NH to win outright. He could lose NH in that scenario and still tie, which would guarantee him the win in the tie-breaking House vote, but possibly allow the Senate to elect Biden as V.P.
AP via SFGate ..... No thanks.
No way FL & VA. are Tossups they are SOLID Red and O’Bumler has all but conceded them to Romney. IA and NH Are lean Romney and almost done. OH was JUST TODAY said by the Plain Dealer to be all tied at 49 - 49. That means O’Bumbler and WI and PA and MI are the NEW toss up states.
Fear not the ice is breaking under O’Buimblers feet. The October surprise is no surprise at all: A weak economy and a massive scandal of incompetence and political calculus over American lives is BLOWING UP AS WE SPEAK!
Romney 53 - 46 takes 320 -350 electoral votes, Rats lose the Senate and the House stays firmly Republican. Nov 7th, let the heeling begin!
Maybe Obama should make a You Tube Video of him and Biden drowning some Kittens to put them over 300 EV’s.
I swear, if this Country has a majority Electorate who can pull the lever for Obama / Biden, knowing what they know now, we are in a world of hurt with no way back to sanity.
This article is garbage..and merely repeats a Democr4at talking points mantra that I’ve heard for quite a while.
But things have changed.
Romney no longer NEEDS Ohio to win..
Instead..it is Obama to NEEDS Ohio..as his firewall against an easy Romney victory.
If anyone is rapidly losing options when it comes to an electoral college victory..it’s Obama.
When this is done, Zero will be fortunate to get just the states that AP claims are solid Zero. EVERYTHING else goes to Mittens.
Every time I see one of these I search for the word “independent”, and I never see it, whether from Silver or anyone else. How does Obama win if he’s losing 7+% of independents? Even the polls showing Obama ahead show him losing among independents. No incumbent has won without getting at least close to 50% among independents. Why should this time be different? Why aren’t independents at least considered?
How does Obama win Ohio if he loses Independents by 7%? Is Dem turnout really going to be so much better than GOP turnout that it can overcome that?
If Gallup is correct, and Romney is winning by 4%, with a couple of undecideds still to decide, presumably for Romney, how does Obama win?
I suppose it’s possible Obama will win, but it doesn’t seem likely; he’s certainly not a “favorite.” His winning would be a perfect storm.
In nine days, these people are going to eat crow, big time.
Note the false assumption, that Romney isn't going to get Ohio-he will.
