Much as it pains me to agree with trzaska, he is absolutely right in this case. Joel Send a noteboard - 14/03/2012 04:21:43 PM
I elaborated on it further in my response to Isaac in that subthread between you, him and moondog. Obama absolutely must win FL or OH, and will probably need VA, too, if he only gets OH. He won all three last time, plus NC, on high enthusiastic turnout that will simply not be there this time, and did not have a large margin even then (FL was closest, at 2%; if Rubio is Romneys VP that race is hopeless for Obama.) If Romney runs even as well as McCain did but Obamas turnout dips even a little he loses FL, and possibly OH as well: Game over.

can *any* republican pose a challenge to obama in november? - 14/03/2012 04:06:59 AM 1190 Views
Yes, absolutely..... - 14/03/2012 04:12:30 AM 642 Views
"anybody but obama" is not a winning strategy - 14/03/2012 02:28:23 PM 619 Views
It can definitely work.....don't compare 2012 to 2004. - 14/03/2012 02:44:39 PM 489 Views
this is why it will be 2004 all over again if romney is nominated - 16/03/2012 02:22:26 PM 529 Views
It sure as Hell is, as long as the candidate is moderate - 14/03/2012 03:04:10 PM 734 Views
Did you vote for Obama in 2008? - 14/03/2012 03:47:55 PM 489 Views
Yes I did. If Romney is the candidate, I will vote Romney this year. *NM* - 14/03/2012 08:39:41 PM 334 Views
Second me on that. *NM* - 15/03/2012 09:25:39 PM 251 Views
Strongly qualifying your statement really weakens the "anyone". *NM* - 14/03/2012 10:14:45 PM 347 Views
The statement "anyone but Obama" can be a rallying cry, but only for the right candidates. - 16/03/2012 01:47:48 AM 643 Views
somehow i don't see romney having much credibility versus obama - 16/03/2012 02:16:32 PM 522 Views
Spoken like a true Obama partisan - 16/03/2012 04:18:21 PM 542 Views
It's actually not about credibility. - 16/03/2012 09:57:41 PM 598 Views

I love that "Gas Costs More!" is the current rallying cry. - 14/03/2012 10:13:04 PM 527 Views
Sure, if Israel hits Iran and Obama looks weak. - 14/03/2012 04:56:23 AM 648 Views
i think iran/israel is probably the biggest issue at the moment - 14/03/2012 02:25:29 PM 649 Views
I would put serious money on an Israeli attack before the election. - 14/03/2012 02:56:55 PM 642 Views
"if netanyahu is smart" is a hell of a qualifier - 16/03/2012 02:28:55 PM 578 Views
FL and/or OH and VA. - 14/03/2012 04:55:04 PM 732 Views
Yes, Romney. - 14/03/2012 10:59:26 AM 637 Views
I know that I would consider voting for Romney - 14/03/2012 01:05:47 PM 619 Views
If you will pardon an impertinent question: Why? - 14/03/2012 03:26:01 PM 594 Views
The answer to the question is yes. *NM* - 14/03/2012 02:24:51 PM 417 Views
I was thinking no, and here's my rationale: - 14/03/2012 03:41:21 PM 555 Views
Romney doesn't have to "steal" people away..... - 14/03/2012 03:48:00 PM 554 Views
Isn't that a pretty tenuous strategy? - 14/03/2012 04:49:42 PM 591 Views

Interesting. So you guys are basically saying I'm right, but it might not matter - 14/03/2012 04:53:48 PM 624 Views
Yes and no - 14/03/2012 06:23:47 PM 752 Views
