“Romney will have his only win of the night in New England... he will carry NH...”

Looks good for Romney in New Hampshire.

But he also has a shot at picking up a single vote from that one Congressional district in Maine that leans to Republicans.

He is going to need every EV he can get.

Regardless of the puffery and over-optimism shown by many here on FR, I believe this is going to be a -very- close election, at least in the Electoral College.

Based on the stats I see at Rasmussen’s electoral college scoreboard right now, looks to me like the election could go Romney - 277, Obama - 252 (assuming Mr. Romney gets the one Congressional district in Maine that is leaning towards him, otherwise, it will be 276-253).
(you can view Ras’ electoral scoreboard at
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/archive/2012_electoral_college_scoreboard)

This assumes Romney wins New Hampshire, Ohio, and Iowa (the latter two states show a “tied race” right now, 48-48 in both).

I’m hoping Mr. Romney can pull this off...

Really? Where's the realistic scenario where ME2 does jack squat? Where also is the polling that shows ME2 going Romney before WI or PA?
