Do Republicans think Mitt Romney will win?

and Gallup was off by 7 in 1980, abc/harris by 5, cbs/nyt by 9 and Washington post by 5 in their final polls.  So it's not like it hasn't happened before....

The biggest difference with 1980 was having a semi-viable third party candidate who could temporarily host undecided voters and potentially draw from both sides. D vs. R, most people already have a team and are sticking with it.
