Michael Barone is not one to "go out on a limb and when I heard this last night, I was stunned. He is usually the one to not make an announcement unless he has virtual rock solid information to make a public statement.

Michael Barone knows American politics better than a lot of pollsters do and my view is he thinks their data is compromised by a turnout model that is skewed too much to the Democrats.

That won’t be the case on Tuesday. In 72 hours, we’ll find out if the voters agree with his prediction.

The most telling for me was Bill Cunningham last night on Hannity, he was claiming that Romney was going to win Ohio and it wouldn’t even be close. He said during the last weekend of 2008, when McCain had a campaign stop in Ohio they had a hard time getting 30 members of the public too show up and had to bus in campaign workers from around the state to fill the small venue. Last night Romney filled an arena with 30,000 and there were many more waiting outside that couldn’t even get in.

I was listening to him on Hannity’s radio show yesterday and he didn’t seem as positive. What changed since yesterday?

This from an article on Ryan campaigning CO:

As for early voting in the state, the Colorado Secretary of State's office reports that over 1.3 million ballots have already been cast here. Of those, 457,337 are Democrats, 493, 457 are Republicans and 341,920 are from voters registered as "unaffiliated." The number of ballots cast so far is already more than half, 53.9 percent, of the total votes cast in 2008.

That means that Republicans are outnumbering Democrats by more than 3% in early voting and will probably outnumber them even more on Tuesday. And yet CO is a swing state? I wonder what the pollsters sampling numbers are for CO. I'd say CO is a lock from Romney but more importantly why are the pollsters counting it a battleground state? This really calls into question the sampling.

Although not scientific, another sign that the election is going Romney/Ryan:

Valeria Jarrett-”After we win this election, It’s our turn payback time’

Sounds like a Chavez communist mini-me, thrashing around and make threats out of desparation. United Van Lines is waiting for her call to move her out of DC and if that doesn’t work Orkin will have the pleasure of fumigating DC to rid her ilk.

We need an exterminator to clean DC of the communist and islamic infestation that has infested it over the past four years with parasites like Jarrett. Romney/Ryan are the exterminators.

Ras is sure making me nervous; but this is good news. Barone is always solid.

>> I think higher turnout in pro-coal Western Pennsylvania and higher Republican percentages in the Philadelphia suburbs could produce a surprise.

COAL IN O’S STOCKING...
