I can think of two reasons:
Ras follows the herd like the rest of them and he thinks Republican voters won’t turn out like that.
But if he is wrong, its very good news for America!
reince Priebus was just on locally with Charlie Sykes.
He expects Mitt Romney to be giving his victory speech by the 10PM CST newscast.
“Ras follows the herd like the rest of them and he thinks Republican voters won’t turn out like that.”
Option B is, a close race is much better for ratings (website hits, etc.) After all, he’s still picking Romney, and can lean back on that when it’s all done and Romney wins handily...all others will look like the greater fools...
