This isn't meant to be a troll post or anything, I'm just legitimately curious. I know if I were seeing polls with Obama down 2-5% in Ohio, tied in the states he needed to have put away long ago, and not ahead in a single national poll in the last week (according to RCP), I'd have very little to no hope of Obama still pulling it out. But Republicans on this forum seem to be upbeat and optimistic.
What's the deal? I guess in 2004 I was optimistic about Kerry's chances, but 1) I was 14 years old, and 2) there were actually polls in the last few days showing Kerry up in states he needed to win! I can understand holding out hope that a miracle happens, but Mitt Romney supporters seem to be genuinely confident that they'll win on Tuesday.
You put too much stock in polls.
