Newt on Hannity: Romney will win 53-47, with 300+ EV and R will carry senate

[NoobRep]

Just heard Newt on Hannity calmly predict Romney 53-47, 300+ EV and Republicans will win the senate.

[onyx]

Amen.

We can never misunderestimate the Marxist’s fraud.

Union thugs.

[SE Mom]

Man oh MAN I pray he’s right.

I don’t remember anyone predicting we would win in 08...just a lot of gnashing of teeth and desperate hoping..

[fwdude]

Being ever the pessimist, I say that if Romney doesn't win this by a greater margin than Obama "won" in 2008, I see it as a defeat for America.

That a Party can get away with "booing" God, disparaging marriage, denigrating the killing of our ambassador as a "speed bump," sexualizing everything, especially women and children, etc. etc. etc. and still not lose by an epic landslide is, to me, a loud death knell for this country.

[MAKOTHEDOG]

And if they are wrong we are stuck with zero and it won’t be their fault.

[MNDude]

I’ll sigh when I hear George Will say it.

Is one reason to VOTE him OUT.

The numbers are actually pretty easy to believe. If Romney has 43% that will vote for him no matter what and Obama has 42% that will do the same, that leaves 15% "undecided". If they break 2-1 against the incumbent (not an unreasonable assumption - see The Incumbent Rule), that gives Romney a 6% victory.

With regards to the EC, the 100-120 margin is consistent with the modeling by the two Colorado professors who have been right since 1980.

I think the only question is whether it will be bigger than 6% and be a complete landslide. If most of the independents go to Romney (again, see The Incumbent Rule) and the under 34's stay home, we could be talking about a 10 point margin of victory in the popular vote.

I may have to check the selection at my local fireworks store...just in case.

lol...I have about 20 old bottle rockets on a shelf in the garage that I decided to save for Tuesday night/Wednesday morning.

Increased turnout only helps Obama. We want a low turnout. Romney’s voters aren’t going to vote or not vote based on reminders and motivational speeches. If you talk a random non-voter on the street into voting, he is voting for Omaba.

[fortheDeclaration]

Please go away until election day, you clearly don’t want Romney to win.

[HenryArmitage]

i should have said "increase our turnout".

[fortheDeclaration]

No, that won’t matter to her, she wants to believe that Romney is going to lose and no evidence will convince her otherwise.

Newt Gingrich as more political savy and experience than half the folks in America ...


Send your "reasoned response" when you've ...


1) Captured the U.S. House of Representatives (after a 40-year absence) for the GOP

2) Concieved and then PASSED and got President Clinton to pass your "Contract with America" ...

3) Taught at the U.S Army War College

4) WON the South Carolina Presidential Primary by a "landslide" ...



See you around ... in about 40 years, I imagine ...

Sure would love to see a couple of polls showing Obama’s hurricane bounce gone and Romney gaining ground again. That would give me MUCH more confidence in Newt’s prediction.

Maybe over the weekend.

I believe 52/47 is a good solid call for an 0bama loss. (it would be sad should it be that close, with nearly half the electorate being dumb as a box of hammers)

God, I just hope he’s right.

SURELY our country cant be THAT stupid to RE-ELECT that bastard! If they would be so stupid, we really are gone as a nation.

[knarf]

If you tjink about it, there hasn't been too much union thuggery this last year. Even Trumka has been on the sidelines.

zero busted his buttons with them and it's all over.

If things keep going south on Staten Island and NJ people will be blaming Obama and the government.
