Obama's problem in this election is that he is not running against an unpopular incumbent. He's running on his own record... and he's got nothing.
Obama still enjoys a huge lead in projected electoral votes and leads in most swing states
The problem with your Messiah is that he is unpopular with his own base, unpopular personally and has no clear message for his path forward
Expect Obama to win with 325 or more electoral votes
Sad but true, in my opinion. With 47 percent not paying federal income tax and those same 47 percent now going to be on the free Obamacare train who among them are going to vote to take any chance of losing their freebies? I don't think I would. So it appears that by putting more and more people into federal government dependency an almost unsurmountable advantage has been created. No matter which side of the aisle one sits that can't seem like good news.
Two reasons 47 percent don't pay Federal Income tax
1. Bush tax cuts raised the bar on when you start paying taxes
2. Unemployment and low paying jobs put more people under that bar
