I would like to say Obama, because Romney is a tool. But we did elect the cowboy from toy Story twice. I think it's all in what Obama does between now and November
"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to. Instead we are left with a host of deities who were violent, narcissistic, vengeful bullies who reflected our own values. Our gods could have been anything we could imagine, and all we were capable of manifesting were gods who shared the worst of our natures."-Me

"Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation; all of which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, even if religion vanished; but religious superstition dismounts all these and erects an absolute monarchy in the minds of men." – Francis Bacon

The more reliable pundits predict an Obama win by six to seven points.

Obama.

If Romney is elected, then we as a nation truly deserve the assrape that we're going to get.

Obama has already out manuvered Romney on gays and Latinos and the republicans have been fucking over women since they gained control of the House. Obama barely has to break a sweat there.

Romney's best demographic is "stupid white people."

Obama won Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado by comfortable margins.

Obama is going to win nearly all of the states he won in 2008, particularly those that really matter. I can see NV, NM, and CO possibly going red, as well as North Caroline, Florida, and Indiana. Not very many of the others, though, and not enough to lose the electoral vote. In most of the states where he won, he won by comfortable margins.

I don't see any of the red states flipping to Obama. It won't matter.

That depends on who votes and who we vote for.

Tautological statement is tautological.
