Real Clear Politics has (finally) moved North Carolina into the Romney column. He leads President Obama 206 to 201 on the RCP Electoral College Map.
When Florida and Virginia turn red, Romney will be at 245, with eight states currently considered tossups. Wisconsin and Ohio together would be enough to clinch the victory. A sweep of the "battleground" states (a distinct possibility) would give Romney 337 EVs.

Via the Washington Post...

Romney is winning the white vote — by a lot (Not since Reagan Landslide)

...But even if Romney sustains a huge loss on the Latino vote, he could very well offset that (and much more) by out-performing his Republican predecessors when it comes to white voters, which are still about seven times as much of the electorate as Latinos. Indeed, it’s not unreasonable to think that Romney could win 60 percent or more of white voters this year.

The most recent national polls from four pollsters — Gallup, Monmouth University, Fox News and the Pew Research Center — all show Romney winning the white vote by more than 20 points. That’s something no GOP presidential candidate has done since Reagan’s landslide 1984 reelection win.

“October Surprise”

#1 Guess: Obama will suddenly develop an "un-described" illness, hence he can not participate in another debate....
(Too late to remove him from the Dem ticket)

#2 Guess: nope, I got nutting.

“A sweep of the “battleground” states (a distinct possibility) would give Romney 337 EVs.”

Just what the Univ. of CO study is predicting:

I think the law has been passed, but it only takes effect when enough states pass the same law to constitute a majority of the electoral votes. They aren't there yet.

However, I think that the first time this happens, it will end in the mother of all Supreme Court cases. It is arguably the worst kind of voter disenfranchisement.

In another week, reality will set in with most Democrats and discourage them from voting in large numbers.

Once the blacks on the liberal plantation realize Obama can’t win, why even vote.

It’s like a pebble in my shoe. I find it completely irritating that anyone would by Obama contracts at 65%.
