When they openly state on national TV [and that waste of time, Twitter] that they want to “kill Mitt Romney”, a bumper sticker or yard sign could be very, *very* dangerous in some ‘multicultural’ areas.

Yet I’m seeing R&R signs in some really crazy places.

I’ve literally done double takes.

While a lot of Dems may vote Republican, I don’t think the GOP has an identification lead, and certainly not of 4 points. However, in 08, ARG and Ras were the closest in getting Obama’s number (52+%), although Fox came out on top by getting the difference right, but way undercounted McCain. Translation : both Ras and ARG are pretty good.

I have seen very few bumper stickers for either candidate here in OH, but I don't think that has been the focus -- I think R/R may think a lot of people wan to vote for them but are still afraid to go public.

However, our important swing county here made 85,000 (!!) calls last month, the most in the nation, and they have, as Rove did in 2004, identified every GOP and swing voter in the county for door knocks, which start this week.

I think it’s silly to call Missouri, North Carolina, and Wisconsin swing states as many liberal outfits are. I do believe that an electoral victory for Romney and a popular vote victory for Obama has about a 10% gamblers chance of happening. If you were playing keno, top bottom, the chance of a tie would be about 10%. The chance of an Obama electoral victory would be less than .5%.

Unless he can even make that token move towards moderates and conservatives, I think it's a waste of time.

At least Romney will not be supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in their quest to esatablish a caliphate. That and dozens of other similar differences make Romney worth supporting.

Obama’s approval is below 50 percent in Oregon and Maine. That’s why some have them in the “leans Democrats” rather that “solid Democrat” columns. If there is a blow-out, they could conceivably go Republican. Maine just did it with a clean sweep in 2010.

Obama’s support in California is barely hitting 50 percent. This state has very high unemployment. I would not say it is impossible for Cali to go Romney. Unlikely, but not impossible.

For the first time in decades, pollsters should be put on notice that ‘juicing’ the numbers to keep the election tight is not going to work.

So far, a couple of them have seen the handwriting on the wall and are reducing the number of +dems in their analysis.

The rest will have to follow suit to stay relevant in future elections.

Wow, no Obama stickers in Berkeley?!

I don’t ever remember an election with so few bumper stickers, it’s downright strange.

Here in Houston I saw only my 2nd new obozo bumper sticker yesterday and I have seen NO obozo yard signs. I am afraid to put my Romney bumper sticker on my Tahoe. I had a crazed dyke in a Jeep try to ram me (or make me think she was trying) when I had my last Bush sticker on my back bumper.

Dem infested Frederick MD and Berkeley Springs/Martinsburg WV, right off the top of my head.

*Northern VA* in the Fairfax/Manassas area.

In south-western PA, they’re everywhere.

The Ras numbers don’t make sense to me as every other poll I see over samples Democrats, never Republicans.

Really? The RNC’s first move every election is to write off NY & CA.
