Unemployment is at 8.1% in the Fall, Democrats have a 230-205 majority in the House and a 50-47 majority in the Senate, and Obama's approval rating is at 44%.

Georgia had an accident and sunk
because high unemployment is going to swing Oregon republican before Ohio, Pennsylvania or michigan?
And Nebraska is not sending one vote to Obama before ORegon or Wisconsin

Kirk is an interesting pick for Romney's running mate.

It would look like that if the election were held today.

New Hampshire, PA, Michigan go for the REP before Colorado? I don't think so...

My map was based on math. Michigan has a substantial unemployment rate. PA is feeling this economic crisis worse than Colorado. And New Hampshire is traditionally a toss-up state. Nothing I said was terribly incorrect, but it is a slight stretch.

Pretty impossible scenario (the economy would need to crumble), but...



I know Libertas (lol) disagrees, but I don't see Obama losing in a landslide.  It will either be a close election for either candidate or a blowout for Obama.

Impossible for unemployment to be at 8.1% in 2010?  I actually see that as an optimistic scenario and is what the Congressional budget office is projecting(8.2% in December 2012 to be exact).
