  • Romney Will Lose If He Continues To Play It Safe

    The map you link is without any toss up states. They put every toss up in the Kenyan column even while showing right under the map that Romney is leading in some of those states.

    No they don't. They show Colorado moving from Romney to Obama  on 10/26. They show New Hampshire moving from Romney to Obama on 10/22. The column on the far right is popular vote.  If Romney is enjoying this great momentum surge, then how is Obama gaining in the electoral college vote? The answer is that Romney no longer has the momentum.

    I wouldn’t take that map seriously. Also, just look at the campaigns. Romney is cool, calm and on message. The Kenyan is running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off.

    Intrade is wrong and Real Clear Politics is wrong.  At some point we have to start taking real numbers seriously or on Nov.7th we're going to wake up saying, what the hell just happened?

    Hey, it's no skin off MY nose if you piss off everyone on Free Republic! It's no skin off MY nose if, in the arena of politics, where I hear being likeable has a *small* advantage, that your snarky nature has put everyone off you! LOL!

     Not everyone. Did you read what TheOldLady wrote?

    Stop making me like you. At once!


    She's slipping Laz, you better straighten her out quick. Once you go “not romney” you never go back

    I've seen a thousand like you before. They last for a brief period, and then Admin Mod lowers the boom. Cheers! :)

    All the more reason to live for today, we have to cherish every moment. No telling when the admin mod will lower the boom. But even when he does, we'll still be able to remember the good times.

    Intrade Intrade???!? SERIOUSLY??!?!”

    No c'mon, Intrade was just a joke. Obama with 281 ec votes, yeah right!. However Real Clear Politics shows Obama with 290 ec votes, so we better take that seriously. Then again I don't want to be presumptuous. How about this, you decide what we should take seriously and then you can ping us.

    And you don't want to be mocked. LOL!!!!

    I never said I don't want to be mocked. I think it's fun mocking overly sensitive people.

    Oh, well, let's get Mitt on the phone! He can stop making his own strategy or relying on HIS strategists. I mean, shoot, all they did was turn a +3 Obama average advantage, nationally, to a +3 Romney advantage. What LOSERS! I mean, *obviously* he should dump THOSE guys, all of them, and listen to some lame, snarky, a-hole anonymous guy on Free Republic (however temporarily -- LOL!) who runs a poorly-written blog such that cannot even attract a reasonable readership! I mean, WHAT IS MITT THINKING! He could have YOU!!!! LOL (at you, Sparky -- not with you!) :) :) :)

    Laz did you forget the rules? Please: NO profanity, NO personal attacks, NO racism or violence in posts

    some lame, snarky, a-hole anonymous guy” Some might take this as a personal attack. Now I'm sure the judges would let it go because you said a-hole and not asshole, but if you had said asshole you would certainly have received a timeout.

    I see getting some people to take off the rose colored glasses is going to be harder than I thought. Yes mitt's up 3 if you cherry pick the polls and only quote the favorable ones. If you look at the electoral college he's losing, and losing big. I don't hold the Romney campaign in such high regard as you do. Eric Ferhnstrom the author of etch-a-sketch. Andrea Saul: “If she lived in Massachusetts she would have been covered” But I guess more than anything it's because with 10 days til the election we're still hoping and praying that the stars align and Romney is able to beat the worst president in American history.

    Thank you for holding back with the solid counterargument. The standard ‘Yer a damned troll’ counterargument is devastating enough.

    “One factor is this: A Troll tends to be a real jerk to others on the forum who have been vetted by years of participation. Trolls don’t like Freepers, and it bleeds through in their responses, no matter how they might try (or, sometimes, not) to conceal it”

    Please accept my heartfelt apology for being a real jerk. I now realize that as an accused troll and a plebe here on FR it’s my responsibility to conform to the wishes and group think of the upper class Freepers. Again, it’s hard for me to put into words just how sorry I am.

    ....THEN, a Troll is someone who, less than two weeks out from the election, consistently denigrates Romney — thus rendering aid and comfort to an outright Marxist Obama, comes up with every reason why he won’t win (counter to all available evidence), and otherwise tries to depress the conservative vote.

    So when I pointed out that Real Clear Politics and Intrade both have Obama with 281 electoral votes - that’s denigrating Romney. When I later point out in a subsequent post that Real Clear Politics just moved Colorado into Obama’s column giving him 290 EC votes - that was denigrating Romney as well. When I implore Romney to go on the attack over Benghazi and stop playing it safe - once again, denigrating Romney.

    I am now willing to change my Marxist ways by chanting U-S-A U-S-A for a half hour everyday until Nov. 6th. To show just how sincere I am, I will also commit to chant sí se puede for 10 minute per day to help with the hispanic vote.

    ““Now LONGBOW, on the other hand... to me, he doesn’t seem like a troll. Real misguided, but... that ain’t no crime”

    Don’t be so quick to thank me. I remain convinced you are a troll. I’m referring only to Longbow1969 in my above message”

    No you’re not. You said: “to me, he doesn’t seem like a troll. Real misguided, but... that ain’t no crime”

    So you’re admitting I’m not a dreaded “troll” just misguided, you also admitted being misguided is not a crime. Whereas being a troll and not sending a ping to someone you mention in a post are heinous crimes.

    I think deep down you even like me better than Longbow.

    “It is customary to ping someone whose name you mention in a post. 
    You’re not very familiar with this forum or the FReepers here, are you.”

    Guilty as charged. I am willing to turn myself in. Just tell me where to report.

    “I heard that moron Romney talking just today about how he will “reach across the aisle”.
    The guy scares me”

    Me too. I think he actually feels more comfortable on the left but is a political opportunist and so that’s why it seems he has no core values. I hope Obama loses becauses he is a disaster. However if Romney wins I’m not sure it will be worth turning over the Republican Party to the rinos for the next 30 years

    “Given your screen name I presume you are hoping Romney continues to play it safe and loses”

    Fair enough. I created the ‘not romney’ screen name during the primaries because thought Romney had the least chance of beating Obama. Obamacare could have won this election all by itself but Romney couldn’t use it. If things were reversed Obama would be hammering Romney about Benghazi.

    I think Romney is too soft. I think he’s using only a fraction of the weapons he has against Obama.

    How can I change my screen name?

    “If Romney’s playing it safe, it is because he is way ahead.

    They are spending a huge amount of money on ads in the remaining close states and still visiting ones where he has a lead to keep them won. They are doing the right things, as far as I see it”

    You might be right, but I don’t think Romney has very good political instincts and I think his campaign is run by a bunch of wusses.

    “This guy has the states all wrong. The only necessary state yet to be decisive for Romney is Ohio. Colorado is won, Iowa is likely to go our way, and Wisconsin is tied”

    If you think Intrade is biased then look at Real Clear Politics. They just moved Colorado into Obama’s column. RCP leans to the right. I hope Romney wins. I just don’t accept the spin coming from the right or the left. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/2012_elections_electoral_college_map_no_toss_ups.html

    “hum mm

    I’m back. What exactly constitutes a troll on FR? Someone who posts something that can be in anyway construed any not 100 percent pro Romney?

    Thank you. Actually I’m not a troll nor misguided. I simply pointed out what intrade is showing. If you don’t trust intrade then look at RCP. They show Obama with 290 even more than intrade’s 281

    You are correct. Even Real Clear Politics has Obama with 290 electoral votes. RCP leans to the right. Colorado was just moved into the Obama column today. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/2012_elections_electoral_college_map_no_toss_ups.html

    The momentum is definitely with Romney. NH just went leans Romney. This is significant because Obama is outspending Romney 5 to 1 in NH. Also 6 to 1 in visits.

    Right now it’s a dead heat. If Romney’s mo continues it could be a blowout. If the mo stops it’ll be a nail-biter.
