As of this moment, the national polls have them tied, but the 6-8 states that will decide this are all leaning towards President Obama.
The Independent vote swings back and forth, so trying to use one snapshot to determine where those people are is just wrong on all kinds of levels.
You can't win the general just by saying how awful the President is. You have to seal the deal with what your own plans are, but Romney's vision is still murky.
He'll flip Indiana and North Carolina.
But Romney has to flip VA, OH, FL and IO to win. Can he do it? Of course he can. And as long as Republicans in Washington are determined to hold off on any legislation that would get people back to work, they hope tanking the economy again will work in their favor this time.
It's a rather cynical ploy, but I would never accuse Americans of being too quick, so they may just buy it.
Right now, I'd have to guess that Obama wins with 300 electoral votes and 51% to Romney's 48.5%.
We're looking at 2004 results all over again.
