There’s a secret lurking behind everything you’re reading about the upcoming election, a secret that all political insiders know—or should—but few are talking about, most likely because it takes the drama out of the whole business. The secret is the electoral college, and the fact is that the more you look at it, the more you come to conclude that al-Barak Omabama has to draw an inside straight like you’ve never ever seen in a movie to win this thing. This is especially true now that it seems as if Pennsylvania isn’t really up for grabs. obama's paths to 270 are few.

So if Pennsylvania is off the boards, let’s look around. Imagine it’s election night, say 10:45 east coast time. Four eastern states haven’t been called yet: Ohio (18), Virginia (13), North Carolina (15), and Florida (29). Also, in some Western states, the polls haven’t closed, or the races are too tight to project just yet—Colorado and Nevada, say. Arizona has just been called for Romney. At this point, Romney actually leads, 188 to 182. In this scenario I’m assuming Romney has won Iowa (6), which is admittedly close but where his lead has been stable at three or four points, and New Hampshire (4), where Obama has a similar fairly small but stable lead, and Michigan (16), where the gap appears to be opening up a little.

So it’s a six-vote obama edge. They’re feeling great up in Boston. Especially with the big Eastern four still up in the air. Right?

Not really. Let’s look at these West Coast states. Even though they’re still voting in California, obviously Romney is going to win it (55). And equally obviously, he’s going to win Washington (12) and Oregon (7), where neither side even bothered to spend a dime. Throw in Hawaii (4). Those 78 votes haul Romney up to 260. That’s something to keep in mind for election night: Whatever Romney's number is at 10 pm Eastern, add those 78 EV’s—they’re a mortal lock, and a hefty insurance policy. If he wins Nevada (6) and Colorado (9), it’s over.

In other words, Romney can lose the big Eastern four—Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida: all of ’em!—and still be elected.

Originality not one of your strong points, huh?

Later this month and into September Obama will promise so much free stuff it will make your head spin. Watch for it. He doesnt have to deliver or figure out how to pay for it he just needs to get his next four years in office. Once that is done he will go full speed into dismantling the greatest country in history.

OP is a fagit. That is all.

Utterly invalid logic by OP.

There's NO way that Romney will win either California or Hawaii.

Stick a fork in Romney for picking Ryan.

". Even though they’re still voting in California, obviously Romney is going to win it (55). And equally obviously, he’s going to win Washington (12) and Oregon (7),"

That's where I realized this was complete BS.

If you do not vote for Obama you are a racist. Any questions?

The parrot is back, lol. The reposting of others threads just changing it slightly to make it look it's against Obama. Welcome back to elementary school.

Certainly a sign that it's over for Romney.

And yes, I fully expect this post to be parroted too.

Yup - my impression as well.

The other sign is the hatred repeatedly shown - not merely disagreement or benign pointing out of flaws, but pure unadulterated venom-enhanced hatred.

I think real voters, however, that infamous vast moral majority, don't like politics like that and will vote accordingly.

Knock off the flooding.

The least you could do is spell check your message.

Ha ha ha....you didn't read the tread.

There is NO way Obama is going to be re-elected. Not a chance in hell. All the polls have Romney winning.

Everybody in America can't stand Obama and what he has done to the US. No way he is getting re-elected.

The economy is much worse than when Bush was in power.

Obama is just fooling himself as are all his followers. Romney is in this thing to win, BABY! He's a PTPER!

Obama won election twice because the elections are rigged by fascist communist pigs of the Muslim brotherhood.

What did we hear from the right-wingers leading up to the election? "Polls are wrong, they skew too many democrats", "Pennsylvania is surely in play now", "Romney has Ohio in bag". What a joke.
