mjs purposefully got 90% Romney just to balance things out in here.

:lol:

How the hell are you supporting all the parties more than me? :lol:

Yeah I don't understand that either, I did answer the additional question under the first bit, but that's just one question. There's more in me it seems. More votes. I'm apparantly just better.

Gary Johnson is essentially Ron Paul lite it seems. Or vice versa perhaps.

He's an anti-establishment Libertarian. He sort of fell off the radar a few years back when he was Governor of New Mexico and advocated drug legalization. He may pick up Paul's mantle after he retires from being the idealistic nuisance outsider in elections.

The Gallup and Rasmussen polls released in the past 48 hours have Obama up by 2-3, which is effectively where he was before the conventions.

Convention bounce?

Give it another 2 weeks, then we can really see the winners and losers from the conventions.

After this week, I've got Obama winning this by 126 electoral votes.

Out of the battlegrounds on that page, which do you (or anyone else) think are the big likelihoods for Obama? Not like a 51/49 edging it chance, but a strong likelihood he'll win.

Would Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania be fair bets? If yes, how close would Virginia be to that status? I ask because it looks like Romney can win Florida, NC, Colorado, Iowa and Ohio, and Obama would still pip him assuming he got the ones mentioned. Didn't realise quite how big a task this was for Romney. My blood pressure hopes it won't be quite that close though, clearly...

Agreed, but what's ominous for Romney is that exactly 4 years ago to the day, and after both 2008 conventions, McCain was leading Obama by 2.9% and Obama ended up embarrassing him in November mainly due to three fantastic debate performances. Romney faces an even more daunting challenge between now and November in that he's behind in nearly every swing state that he has to win, and still has to face a superior debater three times.

Obama is likely to win all the swings except Ohio, Florida, and Virginia, which despite being a bit closer, are also slight Obama leans. The only state Romney is
likely to carry is NC.

Good question. Romney wont win the earlier states you mentioned as you suppose. He has given up on PA and MI. I honestly cannot see Romney win Ohio...simply because Obama has been pretty consistently ahead there. Neither do I see IA, CO or Virginia going for Romney. Romney's best chance is Florida. NC really should not be close a contest for Romney. But I think Obama will contest there.

I would put Nevada, Colorado, Michigian, NH, PA, Iowa safely in the Obama bracket.

Ohio: Not sure why the polls are showing such a huge Obama lead in this state, I'm sure it will narrow up. But Obama advantage.

Virginia: Depends if Mitt Romney can solidify NC soon, and start campaigning hard in Virginia.

I think the debates will not be a lop-sided affair like the McCain/Obama ones. Obama isn't a great debater, though he does connect with people. I hope Romney can hammer him with the statistics, which Obama is pretty average at. Romney needs to be less robotic, I think they might be score draws.

I don't think McCain was embarrassed, everyone knew that McCain was not going to win. I think equally, everyone knows that Romney has a tough challenge ahead of him. The demographics are simply not in his favour, and incumbents are always tough to remove even if they are terrible.
