Amazing. The Obama states must feel very proud of their guy ignoring the U.N. meetings so he could tape The View, which was obviously much more important.

The undecides will break for the challenger. And, many of those polled will vote against Obama but won't admit it for fear of being called racist.

I post again- Romney will win Illinois.

I think R&R will do much better than polls suggest. The Silent Majority lives, it's just that, as a previous poster suggests, a lot of people won't admit to being disgusted with Obama due to the "racist" component. Our Dear Readers' guaranteed base is kinda quiet of late...I don't think they've got anywhere near the same level of enthusiasm they had the last time around. But the "other side" sure as hurl does have the enthusiasm to see that Obama, Moochie, and their entourage of grifters get an eviction notice come November.

Oh Lord, how long will I have to abide Karl Rove?

Really, #5. And Georgia has just moved into "safe"????

What is he smoking? I have seen one, one Obama 2012 bumper sticker, and in North Georgia, where I live, voting is looked on as similar to religion. (You should have seen our local Chick-fil-As that fateful day. Amazing.)And, by the way, yesterday we saw the only Gary Johnson bumper sticker, too.

I was raised in the other end of the state, and I don't hear anyone saying anything nice about the Presidoofus there either.

Just go vote.

I'm ignoring anything written from a poll, about a poll, etc etc etc...

How can Romney win Illinois if it is true that Obama is going to give a ton of our money to Illinois and California to help them avoid bankruptcy?

And what exactuly has Karl Rove done or said in his report that makes him so hard to endure?

I totally agree, #6! Georgia was a "lean Romney state? What is he smoking? I'm near Atlanta, so I do see the occasional Obama sticker (it is the San Francisco/Oakland of the South, after all), but even some rabid liberals I know are scared to death and are voting Romney (and have Romney stickers, etc.) on their cars.

But, but, the media told me it was curtains for mittens. Gaff after gaff. Horrible week. Meanwhile, The Five Trillion Dollar Man scored an exclusive interview with The View chix. It should be over, right? Ol tubby in new jersey has gone all jiggly. We're doomed, right?

Suddenly? Really?

The problem with the Rove map is it uses all polls including the slanted ones and ones up to 30 days old. When you see movement on it it reflects what happened 15 days ago. Sudden is really the wrong adjective to use here.

I agree. The polls are garbage. I got polled 4 times this weekend, and adopted a new persona for each - 18-24 Hispanic female, 25-44 Black female, etc. All were likely voters, voted for Obama in 08, and will vote absolutely for Romney this time.

And the last time I checked I don't have any Lady Parts.

If Romney takes Illinois this will be like a 1984 landslide in the making.

Don't know what Karl Rove is up to and frankly he and his "board" are past tedious! Lean and Safe, ridiculous! His Electoral-map is impossible to believe, but I guess if he keeps showing us made up numbers, he can "update" it at the end and take credit for the Romney/Ryan Landslide! Too bad, I used to respect Karl Rove. Now, not so much.

Georgia is a Red state. It as NEVER been in play.

In Illinois in 2010, Republican Mark Kirk won President Obama's former US Senate seat by 59,220 votes(48.1% to 46.42%). A truly awful Republican Governor candidate lost by a mere 31,834 votes to an honest,likeable Dem incumbent (by virtue of Blagojevich impeachment.) That Governor result was 46.79% to 45.94%.

True, Obama was not on the ballot in 2010, so black voter turnout might have been lower than in 2008. However, the rest of Illinois, especially the collar counties surrounding Cook County, are not going to be fooled again into voting to re-elect President Obama. Collar county turnout will be high and strongly anti-Obama. The rest of Illinois is solidly Republican, save for the depopulated area around East St. Louis.

Romney will win Illinois.

Additionally, reports out today state that voter registration in Chicago itself is down 225,000 since 2008.

PLEASE! Would everyone criticising this map PLEASE look at the methodology!!! It has nothing to do with Rove; he is using the polls that are out there, OK? C'mon guys! You're acting like illiterates - you know - liberals!
