Luntz is a closet Liberal and lets lose his bias from time to time... Liberals like to cut loose with disheartening news for conservatives. However, several others say Romney could do it without Ohio, one of those being Dick Morris.
are the early votes actually cast for the person or are they sealed till nov 6th and they are just assuming that every early demcrat vote is for obama?
I don’t understand why you say landslide based on these figures. The constant drumbeat of the press for Obama makes me feel he has a huge advantage. Educate me. I’m nervous.
That's my question too. In all of these states with early voting, are they recording and reporting the actual vote counts, or is this just party affiliation? Seems to me that reporting actual vote counts would not be really kosher.
Ohio generally votes a point or so more republican than the national popular vote. With most national polls showing Romney with a 3 point lead, Ohio would have to drastically change its voting pattern this year. The media narrative has been for Ohio to be the big battleground. If Romney is shown to be winning in Ohio, there is no real path for Obama, and therefore nothing to hype.
Someone should run an ad featuring Dave Letterman agreeing that Obama lied about the Auto Bankruptcy position of Romney. Its an issue that plays in OH, and most people realize that Letterman is a liberal regarding politics.
These low propensity voters....what are they getting for their vote?
If they can’t get these people to vote THIS TIME, then those folks really don’t wanna vote! Thus, they will need an incentive of some kind to vote especially to cast their vote for O. So what could it be?
RE: Ohio generally votes a point or so more republican than the national popular vote.
Have you found this to be true during the past 3 or 4 Presidential election cycles?
The only poll I need is the Chick-Fil-A poll.
The Chick-Fil-A poll was a proxy for the voting booth on November 6th. People are chomping-at-the-bit to vote against Ubama.
The turnout is going to be historic. Establishment polls can't predict that.
O-hi-o says, Oh,bye 0..?

Not entirely true. Ohio has picked the winner dating back to Kennedy/Nixon in 1960 (where they still may have picked the ACTUAL winner less RAT fraud in Chicago and Texas, but I digress).
In all those elections, Ohio has been within three points of the national number, usually slightly favoring the winner. It's hard to believe that will change in this election.
I don’t think it’s going to be close. I doubt O will get 47% and 200-220 EV’s.
Obama didn’t have magic, He only had mojo and
very little of that, now the suckers are few.
Gas prices are dropping in Ohio — it can not be a coincidence.
It ain’t over til it’s over! Don’t get complacent folks - continue to get out the vote whatever state in which you live.

2008 - McCain OH - 47 - National - 46
2004 - Bush OH - 51 - National - 51
2000 - Bush OH - 49.97 - National - 47.9
1996 - Dole OH - 41 - National - 41

1988 - Bush OH - 55 - National - 53
1984 - Reagan OH - 58.77 - National - 58.8
I don’t see Romney losing Ohio if he wins the national popular vote, especially if he wins by more than a point or two nationally.
They won’t mind to much. Most of the OD’d years ago
