3rd quarter GDP numbers will be released tomorrow.

Experts predict a 3% annual growth rate, but what if it turns out to be higher ?

People don't vote based on GDP numbers.

The recent good news about the economy has not budged americans' views about the economy, the huge majority are still not happy with it, and RCP shows Obama underwater by 20 points in this regard.

This isn't likely to change much. 5 days before the election and key undecided voters throwing out their political beliefs or past assumptions all for a number of economics as their convincing fact to vote R/D sounds rare.

Six-year election > any GDP numbers. Second-term Presidents generally lose ahead of their last two lame-duck years.

Obama made a huge mistake playing his "kill bin Laden" card when he did. Imagine if he went on TV this Sunday and announced that they had killed him. What a crazy next two days that would be.

I doubt President Romney would let his predecessor make such an announcement.

There is nothing the Democrats can do to save this cycle.  Clark County, Nevada is majority Democratic and Republicans have already outvoted Democrats in early voting by over 4,000 votes.

NV is by far the GOP's best state this year in terms of early voting. Extrapolating that NV is representative of the entire county is kinda sketchy.
