This one could very well turn into an Obama landslide which can carry the Senate also

No landslide, Obama looks like he will win, Dems increase Senate majority.

Looks like a landslide with Ohio in the Presidents column and Florida will make it complete
Dems may pick up more seats in the Senate

Yup, looks like a landslide to me, too.
9:22 Pacific Time
Obama has 290 electoral votes, Romney has 200
Of the remaining states, Romney probably has Alaska (3) and Montana (3), for a grand total of 206 electoral votes.
Obama probably has Virginia (13) and Florida(29), for a total of 332 total electoral votes.
Double-checking my count: 206 plus 332 = 538... check.
332/538 = 61% of the electoral votes went to Obama.
Now, 61% isn't quite as steep a landslide as the Prez had four years ago... but it's a comfortable enough margin that I don't envision the Republicans contesting Florida and/or Ohio and/or Virginia... because even if all three of those states flipped to Romney, Obama would still stay in the White House.
So yeah, I'd call any race where the Prez could lose three key states and still be the winner a "landslide".

I don't know if it qualifies as a landslide but it was a thorough beating.

Obama did what he set out to do....win battleground states
He took nine out of the ten that were targeted. Romney was skunked
Landslide
obama didn't win a landslide. He won with a barely eked out majority of leeches. What he has to contend with after his win, is a population of which 48% are intent on obstructing his policies and frustrating his efforts. What obama won was a Pyrrhic Victory.

You're saying "rightwingnuts" get the greater share of a $16T Federal Deficit.
Where do I sign up?
