Prediction: Obama wins narrow
Electoral College victory

Washington Examiner, by Philip Klein

Original Article

Posted By:garnet, 11/5/2012 6:10:41 PM

In the final weeks of the presidential campaign, there have been two major schools of thought about who is going to win. One school points to President Obama getting reelected for a very simple reason: polls show Mitt Romney losing Ohio and all of the states that he would need to win to make up for a loss in Ohio. The other school argues that state polls have been systematically biased against Romney by assuming that Democratic turnout will rival – or even exceed – elevated 2008 levels, when Obamamania was at its peak.

Poll Poll Poll....funny how this is the media scream. I can show numerous past polls that were wrong. In a race this close, it's silly to be able to say who will win. Media should be saying, turnout turnout turnout, that is what will decide.

No incumbent has ever tallied fewer votes the 2nd time around and still won the election. Most of the swing states will end up in Romney's column.

Regardless of the vote tally at 7 p.m. - 10 p.m. - midnight tomorrow, I am praying that Romney's legal team fights like Democrats. And like Democrats, the don't stop fighting until their man wins.

The one good outcome (after a clear landslide victory) would be for the Romney legal team to catch Democrat cheating in locations all acfross the country. Multiple voting, electronics programmed to show "0bama" no matter what is input, illegals attempting to vote, buses full of out-of-staters, and whatever other schemes they have been using since Johnson and before. OH!! and especially catch the New Black Panthers intimidating voters again, and this time make the conviction stick!!

I hope and pray not. We have been through enough in these last four years in our ountry.

If it happens, we will find out "too late" all that Obama has done to bring this about. He has lied, held back the truth, done whatever it takes to define himself as patriotic.

Congress will be held captive by the Libs and the unions will thrive as we, the people, suffer through the next four years.

Our country will be punished for not relying upon God and sadly, He will be giving US what we deserve. My prayer is that He has mercy upon His people, called by His Name, who are praying daily for our beloved land we once knew to be Christian.

Pray for US! Vote and be accountable!

If the R party id is +6 as Rasmussen indicates then no way Obama wins(esp with Romney leading the independents). The problem with basing predictions on polls is that the polls may not be correct. Then again, they may be.

Ha ha. Klein's by-state predictions are all graveyard whistling. And in his last case I think he had it upside down. I do actually guess that one place Mitt may narrowly lose is NH - though I still do have hope - in my mind it's 50/50 there. But I also guess he wins narrowly in Iowa.

And #1, you are so right that it's turnout, turnout, turnout. The LSM won't even mention turnout this year - because it will be wildly in our favor. The word strikes terror in their hearts. That and "independent."

Wrong Klein. The "other school" takes into account most poll samplings are heavily Dem weighted to start with. Which means even the Dems are jumping the sinking Obama ship!

I'm not going to rejoice over a Romney win until I see the headline "President Romney" on Wednesday, November 7.

The author is giving 0bama a narrow win, not a landslide. And it could happen, due to the fact that there are still so many people who support 0bama and the attempts by the Democrats already to commit voter fraud.

Oh, and don't forget that the author gives 0bama a narrow victory in the Electoral College, not popular votes, which of course means Romney could very well win the popular vote, but lose the election.

Did anyone watch Chris Matthews' Hardball tonight? I watched it just to see what he had to say. His voice quivered and his eyes teared up as he pleaded with viewers to vote for Obama. He has seen the true polls -- none of the media, from NBC to Fox to the NY Times to CBS is being truthful about those -- and he knows. He knows. And I feel great knowing he knows.

It's pretty much unanimous among the pansies in the media. They all say, "too close to call", "razor thin margin", "slight edge to President Obama." And then they start citing polls.

Meanwhile those of us paying attention, who have been paying attention for years can see what has already happened. This will be 2010, Chick Filet, the Wisconson Recall, and the 500 flag officers who just endorsed Romney all rolled into one.

Rush, Dick Morris, Karl Rove, Michael Barone, R, Emmett Tyrelle, and others with brains and courage predict a blowout for Romney. We'll know who was right in about 30 hours.

First it was 2010
Then it was Wisconsin Recall
Then it was Chick-Fil-A
NOW...it's Benghazi

NONE look at these FOUR significant events. Just because the media doesn't report on it...doesn't mean it WON'T happen

If Øbama wins, and our final decline as a nation accelerates into overdrive, we can be sure, the election was viciously stolen and liberty is finally at a cold dead end in the United States of America.

#26 I do not totally disagree with you but, no matter who wins Benghazi is not going to go away. If Obama wins he will have the cover-up investigation hung around his neck. The House may impeach him. No, the Senate will not convict. But, it will impeed him. Massive change of the Senate in 2014 as a result and a change in our favor.

Forget the polls and go and vote. Remember in the 1980 election, the polls had Jimmy Carter up 12 over Ronald Reagan. The liberal NY based information industry use these polls in an attempt to suppress the Republican vote, by making as many people as possible think that the election is over before it even starts, and that anyone voting for the Republican candidate is just wasting their time. Forget all that and go and vote tomorrow.

WASHINGTON — You might call North Dakota the antithesis of President Obama’s political base. Whites make up 90 percent of its population, which is fewer than one million people and mostly in rural areas. Its proportion of people 65 and over exceeds the national average. There was never a chance that North Dakota would give Mr. Obama its three electoral votes. So Mr. Obama has not given North Dakota his time. It is one of six states he has not visited as president, along with South Dakota, Arkansas, Idaho, South Carolina and Utah. He has gone just once

There is a common element to the so-called Obama scandals—the IRS targeting of conservatives, the fatal attack in Benghazi, and widespread spying on U.S. journalists and ordinary Americans. It is a lack of credibility. In each case, the Obama administration has helped make controversies worse by changing its stories, distorting facts, and lying. The abuse of trust may be taking a toll on President Obama´s reputation. A CNN/ORC poll of 1,104 adult Americans June 11-13 shows the president´s job approval rating at 45 percent, down 8 percentage points in a month. Among young voters, only 48 percent approve of the president´s performance,

In a sign of our (not very civil) times, Michelle Obama was heckled at a recent Democratic Party fundraiser by a perturbed lesbian activist, Ellen Sturtz. The first lady seemed ruffled. "One of the things I don´t do well is this," she said, as she left the podium, moving toward the protester. Looking at Sturtz, but addressing the crowd, Mrs. Obama said, "You can listen to me or you can take the mic, but I´m leaving. You all decide. You have one choice."

WASHINGTON — A member of Congress asks the director of national intelligence if the National Security Agency collects data on millions of Americans. "No, sir," James Clapper responds. Pressed, he adds a caveat: "Not wittingly." Then, NSA programs that do precisely that are disclosed.It turns out that President Barack Obama´s intelligence chief lied. Or as he put it last week: "I responded in what I thought was the most truthful or least most untruthful manner, by saying, ´No,´ because the program was classified."

The U.S. surveillance state as outlined and explained by Edward Snowden is not worth the price. Its size, scope and intrusiveness, its ability to target and monitor American citizens, its essential unaccountability—all these things are extreme. The purpose of the surveillance is enhanced security, a necessary goal to say the least. The price is a now formal and agreed-upon acceptance of the end of the last vestiges of Americans´ sense of individual distance and privacy from the government. The price too is a knowledge, based on human experience and held by all but fools and children,

The high priests of liberalism must be tossing and turning in their organic cotton bedding and downing more small-batch artisanal whisky each night trying to cope with the abject failure of their cause. They know, even if the masses do not yet fully understand, that their worldview no longer makes sense in light of scandal after scandal in Washington and that the end result could be a great, if slow, deconversion on the scale of the millions who no longer believe in the Christianity its philosophy replaced.

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Likening religious schools to segregation--a racist system that forced blacks to attend different schools and use different facilities than whites in the American South--President Barack Obama told a town hall meeting for youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Monday that there should not be Catholic and Protestant schools because such schools cause division. "Because issues like segregated schools and housing, lack of jobs and opportunity--symbols of history that are a source of pride for some and pain for others--these are not tangential to peace; they’re essential to it,"

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s

This is the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of How Democracies Perish, an analysis of the spread of world communism by Jean-François Revel, one of freedom´s most serious French defenders since Tocqueville. At the heart of this work, Revel details "The Tools of Communist Expansion," among which the most relevant for understanding our current situation comes in Chapter 16, "Ideological Warfare and Disinformation." The profound simplicity of Revel´s nuts and bolts account of totalitarianism´s Cold War advance, far from being obsolete

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.
