Alabaman's are concerned about the economy too. Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: WalterMitty on March 21, 2012, 07:47:47 PM Alabaman's are concerned about the economy too. not true. if alabamans voted their economic self interest, obama would win in a landslide.

Sorry, but with official unemployment at 8+%, and real terms unemployment maybe 17%, and 4$ - $5 per gallon gasoline, does not make for a good economy. Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama?

I mean, it's no thanks to outrageous Defense spending as well as the spending to uphold corrupt bureaucracies like DHS...spending that has been constantly perpetrated by Republicans... Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: Lincoln Republican on March 21, 2012, 08:27:55 PM Obama is the President. Those not happy with the economy will not be looking at GWB, they will be looking at BHO.
Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: Mad Deadly Worldwide Communist Gangster Computer God on March 21, 2012, 10:00:06 PM He'll get pretty damn close to 60%, but he won't break it.

Which Alabamans you talkin' bout? Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: King on March 22, 2012, 03:40:13 PM Not unless he changes as a candidate. Whites won't vote Obama, of course, but if turnout is depressed then black Alabama will give him a low 40s showing.
Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: tpfkaw on March 22, 2012, 03:54:02 PM Of course. Who else are they going to vote for? The Constitution Party candidate?
Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: TomC on March 28, 2012, 04:53:01 PM I don't think so, but it'll be close
Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: RJ on March 28, 2012, 05:23:00 PM I saiy no. McCain just barely hit 60% last time around, and I don't think Romney would outperform him in any southern state, except maybe North Carolina.

If it's this guy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCeC-Rx3SB0), then yes. Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: Indy Texas on March 28, 2012, 08:38:06 PM I think Republicans are going to get 60%+ of the vote in Alabama in every presidential election for at least the next couple of decades. The Yellow Dog Dems are dying off. Their grandchildren have grown up being told the Democratic Party is the party of welfare and abortion and sharia law.
In the long term, I think you're going to see the "central" South (Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee) trending more Republican. The "outer" South (Virginia, the Carolinas) will continue to trend Democratic. Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자) on March 28, 2012, 11:57:03 PM A tossup. While it won't really matter, Alabama is likely to swing more than the national swing. If Romney is close to a victory nationally, it'll energize the base vote to come out and vote against Obama so they can say they were a part of defeating him. If Romney isn't close, the base in Alabama will find other things to do election day.
Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: Tender Branson on April 01, 2012, 02:50:15 AM Probably not. 59% maybe, because many Republicans will stay home.
Title: Re: does romney break 60% in alabama? Post by: jmc247 on April 01, 2012, 02:54:35 AM It depends in my view on if his VP can energize the base which is something Romney badly needs.
