Predict final maps

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Well, it certainly seems to be rather iconic amongst partisan Dems.

Oh, it is! Would you consider some of pbrower's musings iconic?

I see what sort of dynamic you're trying to evoke with this map but I don't see Minnesota going Republican and I'd consider switching Michigan and Ohio.

Isn't this what the Predictions section is for?

Yes it is, it even comes with its own comments and scoring sections. This thread is superfluous, although I wouldn't wish for the comment-quality of the 2012 board to spill into the predictions sections. The discussion in there is actually quite good.

And I'm  being generous to Romney/Ryan

You have just cemented your status as the standard bearer of the left-wing hacks.

It's too early to predict North Carolina; it could go either way.

Says the biggest troll around...

Just because you hate Social Security, Medicare, and the middle and working-class people who use it doesn't mean America does.

At least Rhodie's map was actually realistic.

I take offense to the suggestion that I'm a troll. I also take offense against the idea that I hate middle and working class people. Given I spent my formative years growing up on a farm, the idea that I hate the working classes is a tad ridiculous, given that's where I basically came from.

Then why would you support policies that would hurt these working class people by robbing them of their health care in their old age?

Obama = 332
Romney = 206

(my self-indulgent shadings are only an attempt to indicate the strength of my opinion, not the percentage of the vote).

Romney 295

Guys, in no world is mondale84 a bigger Democratic hack than pbrower. That's his niche.

So your predication has nothing to do with polls.

He's not the biggest troll around. If he were, he'd be saying something like this:

It has quite a bit to do with polls.  Obama is in a lot of trouble in Wisconsin and Iowa.  NH and CO is a theory I'm working on.  Romney is probably more likely to win Florida and Virginia than Obama.  Ohio is a hard read at present, but it could go either way.

Isn't this thread's title "Predict final maps" ?? or is it what would happen today ??

Not sure about Iowa, Wisconsin and Florida, but...

Obama 326
Romney 212

I did not make a map like the one that I just did before the Ryan pick. Such says more about what I think of

1. the folly of nominating an active Representative instead of a current or former Senator or a Governor

2. the folly of nominating an extremist, partisan hack

-- and --

3. the impossibility of convincing people in a mere three months that Medicare and Social Security 'need' to be privatized.

Susan Collins, Susanna Martinez, Rudy Giuliani, and Mike Huckabee would have been infinitely wiser picks. They would have changed much less and perhaps even brought more to the table. 

I thought that Arizona was out of contention and Indiana on the fringe of contention before this map. But just watch the polls in the next few weeks.

Obama has consistently lead in Virginia, Ohio, and WI, and lead in far more polls than Romney in IA and FL.
