when obama has breached 50% at the once-trusted "house of ras" and breached 60% at intrade.com, it's time for a serious gut check. or not.
why they're losing:
I’m getting a sick feeling feeling that the lazy “takers” will re-elect the communist and America falls forever into a marxist-mooselum black hole. (newfreep)
why they're winning:
Getting sick of all the panicing around here.
This is the cycle that occurs after the conventions, the media for the most part is in the tank for Obama and LYING seems to be a required character trait to be a Dimrat
.....nothing new here folks! We're going to win this and each day its getting harder for them to fake the numbers as people settle in. (thingumbob)
why they're losing:
... the trend among all the polls is clear, Obama is doing better than he has been for a long time, almost certainly because they put on a very effective convention that bashed the Republican party hardcore while the RNC didn’t even mention the term “Democrat” at their convention as far as I can remember.
The days of saying the polls are “rigged” ended in 2008 when everyone said that about the Obama/McCain polls, and then the polls proved to be correct. (JediJones)
why they're winning:
Rove was just on Hannity and said that he thinks Romney will win IN, NC, FL, VA, NH, WI, IA, CO, NV, and OH – and will possibly win MI, NM, & PA. (tsowellfan)
why they're losing:
Rove is one of the single biggest players in this election. Supporting Romney to the tune of millions upon millions of dollars through his SuperPAC. Of course he is going to say that.
I don't understand why people can't just admit that Romney is plainly losing. It's sad to watch our side whining about polls. It stinks of 2008 all over again - and 2006 before that. Yes, there are some bad polls here and there, but the trend is absolutely clear - Obama is winning. Romney is just running a lackluster, play-it-safe campaign and it's not working. The DNC convention was masterful. I'm sorry, I hate their message too, but it worked. Our convention was boring, giant pile of mush. These ads that I see in Virginia the Romney camp are running are dull, uninteresting and are probably swaying no one. The Democrats, with their allies in the media, are simply running rings around Romney, the GOP and quite frankly conservatives in the new media too. The Democrats are outflanking Republicans at every turn, they are getting their message out, they are dictating what the story of the day will be. Romney is not attacking in a way that gets any media attention, and when he is on TV he appears to be guarded, on the defensive and generally uninspiring. (Longbow1969)
why they're winning:
I too is getting fed up with the debbie downers in FR. The truth is that people tend to lie to the poll takers so as not to be thought of as being racists. Obama is done. (Biggirl)
why they're losing:
But you must admit it’s hard when somebody asks why I support Romney, and the only answer I can come up with is, “He’s not Obama.” (dfwgator)
why they're winning:
Coming up during the next 7 weeks are: four debates (including the one VP debate;) the sequestration plan (the deadline has already been missed) from the WH detailing the cuts it will make; another debt ceiling battle as we go over the $16 trillion mark; House legislation covering the fiscal cliff, which will raise the debt, deficit, and Obamacare issues; continuing high gas prices that could sky rocket should Israel decide to take out the Iranian nuclear program before November 6th; the continuing Eurozone problems that are impacting the global economy including our own; and perhaps a few bombshells on Obama's personal narrative.
... We need to stop being stampeded by the polls into this herd mentality. I strongly believe this is Romney's race to lose. As long as we keep it as referendum on Obama, we will emerge victorious. Fear is a great motivator. Go to the polls and get your neighbors, friends, and families to vote. It is the most meaningful election in our lifetime. We have a clear choice. (kabar)

I believe Romeny is throwing the election to Obama. I am ashamed to say that I was one of the first people onboard the Romeny bandwagon.
Everything changed when I saw firsthand ( I live in a battleground state) the much hyped “carpetbombing” of ads that were supposed to unleash the gates of hell on Obama.
I was not bothered by the quantity of ads run. It was a carpet bombing in the quantity category. It was wall to wall Romney ads yesterday.
The problem is that saying they were softball ads would be a insult to softballs.
The ads were pretty simple generic stuff in the message. The economy was bad under Obama and Romney has a plan to fix it. Nothing really riveting, but the thing that really bothered me was that usually in a campaign ad you use a unflattering pic of the other guy, but in this ad he used a good normal pic of obama and a distorted pic of himself. the music and announcers tone were cheerful when talking about obama being bad for the economy but his voice and the music actually turned more tense when saying Romney had a plan.
I had 2 freinds who saw the ads. One a marketing executive and the other a guy in audio/visual and they both said the same thing. That the cheerful music and smiling picture of obama and the pleasant sounding voice of the answer all negated the message of obamas bad economy and the music pic of mitt and announcers voice all stepped on any positive vibe Romney could have gotten when it said he had a plan to fix it.
Romney has way too much money to hire the best ad consultants on the planet to make this kind of mistake in a ad. I believe Romney is throwing the election. (RedStatePatriot2012)

Welcome aboard, (not) RedStatePatriot2012!
RedStatePatriot2012: since 2012-09-08 (2 days ago).
Be vigilant, real FRiends. The vermin at the DNC and the LSM have opened up the floodgates from DU and who knows where else to try to demoralize us. Believe nothing you read, see or hear. They are flooding us with newbie trolls.
Make sure you vote on Nov. 6th. (SnuffaBolshevik)
