There is one variable we should never forget when making predictions - that of voter fraud. And, the Democrats do that better than any element of any society in the world.
I have some friends who are worried about voter fraud , again, this time around, and are sending out a recent blog by J. Christian Adams anatomizing the rather extensive scope of it, especially now, under Obama, since it’s directly subsidized, in effect. I was just about to respond to my friend with my thoughts on this. If my instincts are right, Obama will be beat by a credible candidate (and I include even the Rino Romney in that) by such a resounding margin that the only way voter fraud could bring him halfway-to-even would be SO blatant, SO unmanageably sloppy, SO aggressive and obvious , that it would be clear to EVERYONE. Obama is NOT popular, regardless of what the whole spectrum of polling seems to suggest. He has NO chance to win a Presidential election. The bloom has disappeared steadily off rose for a good two years now, as it started to become clear even to those who voted for him
out of a sense of “obligation” that he was first and foremost an ideologue, a would-be demagogue, and NOT EVEN a politician. He has suffered ENORMOUS losses from the constituencies who elected him, and those constituents are NOT coming back. There is nothing he can do in an attempt to engineer the economy to even give it the appearance of health-—all important negative numbers will continue to rise, while positive indicators will fall.
Voter fraud will NOT win this time, or even have much of an impact, when and where they might make it successful.
There will be fraud, but it will not matter. I'll go out on a limb and predict a landslide on the order of 1980. Probably not qute as big because some states have been drinking liberal koolaid too long, but a major landslide nonetheless.
