I have been looking at polls for weeks now, I am worn out.

Bottom line: it's gonna be close as shit.

It's 281, but I think Mark is giving his prediction, which looks like Ryan's plus CO, which is my current one.

Yeah, I'd give Romney Colorado, Florida and Virginia. There might be a possibility that CO may go Obama's way, but the rest checks out. Unless Romney pulls an upset in Ohio somehow.

Yeah, basically.

[J.C.]

3OH!3

Which begs the question why isn't he in Ohio 24/7 now?

Only if the polls are wrong, which remains a possibility.

Because Ohio alone doesn't necessarily do it for him. Romney is going into states like Wisconsin because those will be more difficult to shift. It's better to attempt to shift Wisconsin and hope Ohio falls your way than campaign in Ohio and get only that state.

I'm basing this off of nothing, I haven't even looked at polls, but I thought i'd see how close i come. I doubt it will be this much of a blowout lol

Edit: I can't get the actual image to show up

[jwicklun]

Yeah, Romney could pull an upset. Only if the stats are wrong.

[GeeBee]

I say Obama with 277. Mark my words and come at me.

I'd say he should be in OH, VA, and CA. Those 3 fall he wins. PA doesn't fit in the math. WI is a stretch in my mind too because it that flips red so will the 3 that I mentioned and it's already over.

Are we sure we know what 24/7 means?

Well I was being hyperbolic in response to Romney coming to PA and GOP groups spending in MN and MI, too, which I think is dumb.
