Romney, on the other hand, will lose both of his home states. Oh, and he'll lose another 271+ electoral votes. Because in a line of batshit crazy candidates from Bachmann to Perry to Cain, he was the best of a bunch of awful choices. The Tea Party will cost the R's the election.

I think you are way off base. Conservatives are energized like I've never seen before. It's like 2010 writ larger.
On the flip side, I sense a helluva lot of insecurity and not a lot of enthusiasm coming from Democrats. Serious democrats know that there is a very good possibility that Obama loses this election (take solace- even if he loses he'll still most likely win Illinois!). We won't have to guess any more in about 80 days....DOH!BAMA has his work cut out for him!
I agree. I've never seen the level of interest and determination among average people as I see this time. And rightfully. Every election we're assured "this is the most important one in our generation." This time it's true. We have a very stark choice between two completely different views of government. And we have a record of "achievement" by the Obama Administration unmatched in history. The Left has turned on the guy. The black leadership is unhappy with him. The media isn't really thrilled anymore. All they have is "well Romney would be worse."
No, we still have the conventions and debates ahead of us. The debates especially will highlight Obama's failures as well as his lack of character and sleazy attacks. Again, shaping up to be 1980 all over again. And btw, the polls in 1980 showed a close race right until they didnt.
