Era Might Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Three weeks to go. If you had to choose a winner, who do you think is going to win. Not who you want to win or who you'll vote for, but who is actually going to win. I say Obama. Incumbency is tough to defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUSt Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Romney. The people in the polls who answer their phones and say Obama are less likely to get out and vote than the ones saying Romney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle_eye222001 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Romney. The polls are based on 2008 turnout. We will not have an identical turnout due to a large group of people who no longer believe in Obama Since the polls are giving Obama an unjustified push, this means Romney may be winning even if the poll says Obama is up by 5. You can see the frustration in Obama these past few months compared to years ago. He is lost. The media is ready to crown him king, but he knows he's lost. You talk to people who voted for Obama in the past, and their spirits are down. They no longer believe. You can see the desperation in Obama supporters who are still trying to believe. You could even see it in the moderator at the 2nd presidential debate. She desperately wants Obama to win and it showed during the debate. I predict a [b]landslide [/b]for Romney. It won't be close. That said...I believe both candidates should be rejected. My opinion is that Romney is barely better than Obama.....but not enough to warrant support. God help us.

The president does have an edge in the mere fact that he is the president. He has 4 more years of experience than Mitt Romney does. I wouldn't be shocked if Romney won, but I don't sense there's any great tide of emotion right now in his favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
