MN: Mason-Dixon: Obama with Slight Lead in Minnesota

This is actually rather good. Slight leads in places like MN, terrible deficits in places like Missouri and across the South.

I'm starting to think Romney might have to win the PV by 3-4% (Of course this statement will probably look silly when all the votes are in next week...it's not a very probable thing....but this year is crazy) to win the Electoral College.

That's just frightening. So Romney might win 52-47 yet still lose.

Anyone hoping for "sweet payback" to show that America is "not a democracy" is sick and despicable. Wishing for a failure in the system is terrible, and despite the recent brush with it in 2000 highly improbable again. If Romney is up 5% nationally, the swing states will fall, and potentially other unexpected ones as well. Remember Indiana 2008? Anyone seriously thinking Romney would lose the electoral college while winning the pv by 4 or 5 is kidding themselves.

Well i guess i plead guilty to being "sick and despicable " then.  If racism have been proven to cost Obama 2% then i have no problem whatsoever with Obama losing the popular vote by up to 2% but winning the EC. Serves all the racists right.

Voting against someone simply because they happened to be born a different skin color, that's what's "sick and despicable"

can you just stop branding people racists and give it a rest already. Most who vote against obama do so because of his policies. Black people can be plenty racist themselves. And homophobic

If Romney campaigns in MN it wont look like he is a momentum candidate expanding the map, it will look like he is a desperate candidate trying to find a path around Ohio.

nope, latest polls has obumma only +3 in MN. Romneys internals must be close to that, or better.
