And Obama leading by two with 92% in.
Unless that changes, Romney’s in trouble.

17 points? Huh?

Now, Obama’s up by less than two hundred votes with 99% in.
If their bellwether status holds, prepare to be awake for a long time.

Sometimes it’s too much information.
In this case, it’s not enough info.

Obama can’t survive a 17% swing nationwide…. keep calm and finish him

Doing better than McCain ain’t enough for Romney. He has to be as good or better than Bush and to see overal voter turnout less than 60%.
He can’t be between Bush’s and McCain’s numbers and win.
