They're all 8-10 pts Obama's way in MN from what I've seen...
Besides, MN hasn't gone Republican in a POTUS election since 1972!!! That's 40 years!!!!
You've got wishful thinking on the brain!
...the raw vote total would help to support Romney with a perceived mandate and will of the people
Much better than this would be a "sweep out" of the Dems in Congress...then a mandate could be swept thru...
Dick Morris had it in his daily video. Don’t know if it was a public or internal poll. MN is an example of where the likely difference could be made downticket.
