You need to give credit to David Leip’s election atlas which is where you are getting those maps.
I noticed an interesting thing yesterday. It has to do with where the candidates are campaigning in the last hours. "Where A Candidate Campaigns On the Last Days Of An Election Gives Big Clues On Who's Winning", and I truly think Romney will win by a much bigger margin than the MSM, the left, or even the GOP establishment want to believe.
Also, regardless of the outcome, let us all pray that no one has put so much of their personal faith in mankind and it's governments that a suicide watch is needed to keep them safe as it seems many Democrats voting for Obama have stated. I found a list of twitters from Democrats who are seriously close to losing it. "Democrats Twitter About Their Plans If Obama Loses (Suicide Watch Needed)"

I think you are a wee bit optimistic, but of course I hope you are correct. I do think Romney is going to win, but I am concerned about picking up enough Senate seats.
From his lips to God’s ears.
I think its as much fantasy as lib prognostications O will win narrowly.
It will be somewhere in between. But it makes for a lovely conservative wet dream! :)
I am praying too. Our little town held a prayer vigil last night at the Court House steps. How cool is that? We were praying that God would forgive our sins and relieve us of obama. This is one state that won’t vote for him. I have not heard one person admit to voting for him, and I see a lot of people. It is universally understood that we will all vote for Romney (Mormon or not).
Very optimistic prediction. I hope you are right, we will need a blowout for the Kenyan to go quietly.
This oversimplified the mechanics of Presidential campaigns, which are much more sophisticated in how they operate and will both conduct head fakes and alsp take into consideration downticket operations.
For instance, George W Bush’s foray into CA at the end of the 2000 election, designed to draw attention away from what was going on in states like WV and TN. Or Doles final weeks, which were all about bolstering downticket candidates.
McCain tried a combination of the two in 2008 by going into PA, something the Dems have been drawing (incorrect, IMO) analogies to.
I’m not saying you’re wrong here, just that we’re going to have to wait for the coming weeks to hear from the campaigns what they were doing and why.
Voted in IL at 6:10 AM. Big line: 50+ people for an outlying area of Peoria. If this is a big Republican turnout, my prediction (very optimistic) may come true:
Romney 55% - Obama 45%
Electoral Votes: 353-185
I’ve been using military analogies for days now, to explain how Mitt is advancing into Obama’s ‘safe’ territories, while Obama has had to fall back to these areas to defend his ground.
Red districts haven’t seen hide nor hair of Mitt in recent weeks, but Blue districts have seen Obama time and time again. If that doesn’t paint a picture of what’s happening in this race, nothing does.
The Senate pick up number looks way off. 7-9? I’d like to see his data on that.
I AGREE! Along with undecideds (because 4 years of evaluation of An Obama Presidentcy) choosing Romney this year, as well as the “band wagon effect” of Mitt Romney seemingly winning carrying others along + smaller effects like the bad weather magnifying the enthousiasm gap to a small degree! ROMNEY wins big.
Precisely!
Where does this come from?
Why would she stand for election and then immediately resign?
