Romney defeats Obama in 2012, Clinton runs and wins the nomination in 2016 and goes up against Romney. The economy is better and unemployment stands at: 6.4%.

If Romney was able to bring unemployment that low, he would basically be guaranteed a Reaganesque landslide. Even an experienced stateswoman like Clinton wouldn't be able to take him down.

I'd say more of a Clinton-scale win.

That's quite extreme.  Still, if unemployment comes down below 7%, Romney is virtually guaranteed a win unless he is filmed committing a felony.

He would be bringing unemployment below what it was when Reagan was reelected.

There's so much more polarization now than in 1984.  Look at Obama's strongly disapprove numbers.  Those people aren't voting for him even if there is 6.4% unemployment in Nov 2012.  Same thing with Romney.  Clinton still gets her ~43% even if there was universal employment.

Where are you guys getting this from?!?!

If Romney brings unemployment down to 6.4%, his unemployment will easily be in the high 50's, if not low 60's. Romney would easily defeat any Democrat running. The map would look something like this:

I'm guessing he meant to say "approvals".
