My map has Mittens up 261-243, with Ohio, Wisky and Iowa still toss-up.

My map (at this point) is 275-254 Obama with Colorado too close to call

Obama gets:
Ohio
Wisconsin
PA
Michigan
New Hampshire
Nevada

Romney gets:
Virginia
Florida
Iowa
North Carolina

I think Iowa could go for President Obama though

Still anxiously awaiting your answer Isadore.

But of course she must be racist too huh?
gosh a ruddies read what the President said or listen to the tape, read what Romney said or listen to the tape, Romeny was wrong. But of course some foxites can never accept the statements of our African American president, about his birthplace, his religion or what he said in the rose garden.

gosh a ruddies. romney said the president did not call it a terror attack in the rose garden speech, the transcript shows he did. Romney lied.
Now we plan a reaction to the bombing, we organize, we prepare to attack on the terrorists and kill them. all things that Obama's administration has shown itself better at than the previous Republican administration.

Dick Durbin admits "bad result" of Obamacare. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Next comes loss of jobs.
Illinois Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Democrat in the Senate, told The Daily Caller that “several” areas of President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act could be “improved” and acknowledged that a “bad result” of the law is that companies are cutting workers’ hours to avoid paying for their health insurance.
For example, Darden Restaurants, which operates the Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants, is reportedly limiting employees’ hours due to the health care law’s regulations on businesses.
“It’s a bad result. It is a bad result, and I’d like to – I’ve worked with them [Darden] on many issues, and I’d like to sit-down with them and find out what it is,” Durbin, who voted for Obamacare, told TheDC in a video interview at Hofstra University before Tuesday night’s presidential debate.

So you're just not going to answer the question. Ok, Romney lied. Why did Obama stand up in front of the UN claiming a protest gone wrong over a Youtube video? Why did Susan Rice go on all these shows claiming the same thing?

sorry if this is not blood thirsty enough for you. "The attacks on the civilians in Benghazi were attacks onAmerica.

There should be no doubt that we will be relentless intracking down the killers and bringing them to justice. " He promised a strong reaction while an investigation was taking place. And Romney is as you said a liar.

Dude, that's nowhere close to what I've asked. Any chance you can be an adult and answer it or you just going to keep acting like a juvenile?

Based on testimony, they knew it was s terrorist attack that had nothing to do with the video within 24 hrs, yet they still used the video excuse for two weeks, why?

I have to agree at this point I think Obama has given up on the undecideds and swing voters and it's all about turning out the base. The last two debates with Obama and Biden clearly haven't been about substance but in-your-face, aggressive demogoguing and demonization intended to fire-up a bunch of blue-collar neanderthals.
And Romney has been full of substance?

A hell of a lot more than Obama, absolutely. Obama spends like 90% of his time attacking Romney's plans... sooooooo Q.E.D.

Or let's put it this way...If I told you one of those two on stage had been a professor, you would never in a million years guess it to be Obama.

38 EVs is not a runaway.

4 years ago it was a runaway (385 to 173)
Clinton had a runaway from Dole and from Bush I

Landslides are like Bush I vs Dukakis and Reagan vs Mondale and Reagan vs Carter.

30ish EVs is not "running away" by anymeans, that's basically 1 battle ground state (FL).
