Did you folks in Ohio hear Rush Limbaugh today say that, IIRC, that there are fewer voter registrations in Ohio this year compared to ‘08, and that 44% of that drop is in (”Rat-infested) Cleveland alone? What’s up with that? Could it be that the Cleveland dropoff in registrations is due mostly to the fact that there is a lot less fraud this time around? (Seem to recall that voter registration fraud was rampant in Cleveland in ‘08 when the then Dem SOS condoned it.)He also said that there are marked dropoffs in Democratic registrations in several other swing states around the country. Yet the phony lying media is telling us that “Osama” Obama is ahead just about everywhere.

Click on the above link and hover the mouse over Clevland and it will pull up 2010 Gov race results. Look at the percentages and number of votes.

Above is a link for 2008 presidential election. Look at the percentage and number of votes.
Huge difference two years ago and that difference is still there today.
I expect the same result for 2012 out of this county. The loss in Dem votes alone in this county coule be enough to flip the state.
It only took Obama 2 years to destroy his own support in that dem stronghold. Yeah he built that.
It’s the inner cities where DemocRAT voter fraud comes from, so the fact that Cleveland is down means Romney wins Ohio, which means he wins the election. By a landslide.
I think that a major reason for media screwing with the polls is to create a “horserace” between the two sides by picking up the underdog for a while before returning to reality.
This year, Romney has been impervious to Obama’s assaults but he got a phantom bounce from the DNC Convention. It seems to have quickly evaporated because of the Libya fiasco, so suddenly the media is pumping it up insanely with very skewed ratios of D/R/I.
Now, if Obama does very well in the debates, then he can be carried along a lot longer by the media. If Romney shows up well in the debates—if he just ties Obama by showing himself to be intelligent and able to hold his ground against the POTUS—then there will be the “comeback kid” effect and the polls will evaporate for Obama.
To a great extent the current inflated polls are wishful thinking by the media, because the Debates will seal the deal one way or the other. I am a bit nervous about these debates, since it’s the one thing that might save Obama, especially since the debate format and the questions will try to favor him. Certainly the media will proclaim an Obama victory either way, but unless BHO knocks Mitt out conclusively, I think that this race goes back to being a referendum on Obama’s dreadful record and that the American people will judge him and vote him a LOSER.
My extrapolation from the absentee drop off was that Cuyahoga would have a 68,000 D shortfall in registrations.
This is where Romney is spending a lot of those millions. RESEARCH. They have been polling and analyzing data for months now. And they are very focused on targeted GOTV efforts. Romney is running a new kind of campaign. We will know in 6 weeks if it is successful. But there is a lot more going on behind the scenes than we can tell from ads, polls, campaign appearances and stuff. Keep the faith.
