I enjoyed the OP. I generally enjoy liberal desperation.
1. Polls are fun to look at, but they're not givens. Reagan was (supposedly) down by 8 points in October. He won the election by ten points. I see something shades of 1980 on the horizon. Romney will win and he will win comfortably.
2. --
3. That's just a cop-out, not knowing enough about Romney. We know plenty and your guy, Obama won on platitudes in 08. But when it came time to perform he only violated promise after promise. He's an abysmal failure. Contrast that with Romney's successful past and I think Americans will be willing to put their faith in Romney.
4. Improvement in the economy would help Obama. I think we've been hearing it would improve for how long now? And considering that the global economy is pretty f'd right now, I don't know where you're thinking you'll get improvement.
Also, apparently Goldman Sachs doesn't agree with you. They were Obama's second biggest donors in 2008. They've shifted to Romney.
You're comparing Romney to Reagan? What do they have in common, other than being politicians?
I think we know plenty about Romney. He was born rich, and he's got two degrees from Harvard. When he needed help with his homework, he called his dad, who was Secretary of Interior, or HUD, or something. He doesn't care about the poor, he makes $10k bets on a whim, and he's on record as being on - at least - two sides of every issue. He's an insider. He's part of the establishment - who happens to be Mormon - and he was born on third base and thinks he hit a triple. What else is there to know?
