it would take an act of god for him to lose the nomination, the only question is if he can beat a sitting president in november. its like beating maidens and next out double jumping your condition and winning. its not that easy.
if george bush got a second chance to screw up, this guy should be ice cream compared to him

Landslide.
Obama is toast.
It will not be close.
Dems will be jumping off bridges by 7:00 PM on election night.

Romney Keeps on Winning
Tom, are you predicting both an electoral and a popular landslide? Is that your heart talking or your head? I predict Obama loses the popular vote, but wins the electoral vote. Have you done the math on the close states that Romney would have to take in order to prevail in November?

Reagan had no chance either.
I do not follow polls at all, only to find a few to use to tease hcap with.
Polls mean nothing.
I have faith in America.
Intelligent people still outnumber the morons.
If a poll meant anything t all, why do they keep taking them?
Public opinion is in a state of fluctuation.
Come November, Obama will be fluct.

"if george bush got a second chance to screw up, this guy should be ice cream compared to him" says lamboguy.
lamby, surely you jest.
Obama called Bush Unpatriotic because he spent so much.
Yet Obama has spent more in less than 4 yrs than Bush did in 8!
And I might add with no results.
I think Obama is toast, just like Tom does. '
It's the economy stupid.'

Just to set the record straight, I wanted to bet on Reagan against Carter. So I called a relative in London a couple days before the election and asked him to find out how much I would need to bet to win 50 pounds on Reagan. So he goes around the corner to bookie shop to find out. He called me back and said I would have to bet 90 to win 50 on Reagan.
If Reagan was your idea of an underdog, you must have loved 3-5 shots when you were younger.

1) Where have you been? I get nervous when you old-timers vanish for a few days.
2) Did you report any winnings as result of such wagers on your federal returns and if so, did you have to use a currency conversion chart, four schedules, two tables, and nine forms?

1) I'm in London. I'll be here a couple months. I'm using a lousy T-Mobile stick here. I've go to get something more reliable - this connection is stinkingly unreliable!
2) I never made the bet - I didn't like the odds - or the conversion rate.

Have fun and if I don't get a chance to read your gobbledygook justifications of some inane policy before I'm outbound briefly to earn my yearly income shortly, avoid the planes with underwear bombers and get back to Joisey safely.

Do one percenters really go to visit with their mother-in-law for more than a day at a time?  
Hope all goes well for you too!

Now, you said 7PM, was that eastern time or Pacific time. If it was Pacific time, you would have only been 1 hour and 15 minutes away from hitting the nail exactly on the head!
Here's the results in case you missed them.

Why are you lagging so badly? Forgot to set your clock back last weekend?
At least try and stay current...the election has been over for almost four full days now, and you're just NOW getting to rubbing Tom's face in it?
