Mitt has a chance. Obama could become only the second modern incumbent that replaced the other party to lose his re-election...the only other president to do that was Jimmah....

Mitt was not my first choice...but I will easily vote for him in the general election.

Starting with www.270towin.com, it currently has 181 EVs for Romney, with 161 undecided.

IMO, the best path from there to get 0bama out of the White House is to add:

FL - 29
NC - 15
VA - 13
MO - 10
IA - 6

That is 73 more, bringing MR to 254.

Then pick one of PA (20), OH (18), or MI (16), and 0bama is gone.

I think NH (4) will go to Romney as well.

Obviously, the VP choice is key. I think Gov Nikki Haley of SC would be a solid choice on many levels, helping to deliver the Southern states and also the women’s vote.

I think it is an advantage for Romney that the RNC convention is the week before the DNC. If he chooses Haley, he can get the message out and take the initiative. Presumably, 0bama will stick with Biden, and it will look like status quo for the DNC.

If he dumps Biden and chooses Hillary!, all bets are off. Hillary! just might agree to this as it would set her up for 2016.

First and foremost, we have to get 0bama out of the White House.

What the heck?

Romney is up in the polls?

What about all these recent polls, showing Obama leading among women, and the whole war on women issue?

What about recent polls showing that Obama has a big lead among swing voters in the battleground states?

Are these other polls for real, or are they slanted polls? Or are they propaganda, to convince people that Obama is more popular than he really is???????

“Four percent (4%) would vote for a third party candidate,” ..

I would guess 3% are grumpy Republicans that will eventually hold their noses and climb on board.

Romney 51%! That is a big number.

I wonder why they won’t poll Newt? FoxNews won’t mention him either.

To: Mikey_1962; All
No doubt the 4% who want a third party candidate are all Freepers!

Seriously, I suspect that the vast majority of those who want someone else are Republicans, and most will in the end hold their noses and vote for Mitt, So, let's give him 3 of that 4%.

Then, historically, late deciders usually break for the new guy..IOW..they vote against the incumbengt..so let's give Mittens another 3 of that 4%.

That means you're potentially looking now at a 54-46 vote for Romney..

If BrokeBack O’Bozo is polling very badly by September watch for Biden to have a medical emergency forcing him to drop from the race, after-which Hitlery! will graciously agree to move up as O’Bozo’s VP running mate.

I wonder if a lot of folks were are saying they would vote for Obama because of the racial guilt factor. The coming race riots and black on white attacks this summer will shake those people loose from their illusions. Landslide, Romney.

Still too close; the RATs can make more than that difference up in fraud.
