Note -- should Herman Cain drop out of the race, I will be dropping the map showing him against President Obama.

Above 10% the distinctions are effectively moot in a winner-take-all statewide election.

Not surprisingly this poll (CA, Field) changes nothing. Obama has a 10% edge upon Romney and a 20% edge upon Gingrich. Cain goes unmentioned. It's only a matter of time before I drop the map for Herman Cain; he has to formally drop out or his campaign has to disband for me to do that.

I may soon freeze this thread and start over with a new one. At this point I see Romney vs. Obama as a close race (although the President has yet to begin a partisan campaign and the economy may improve) with a slight edge to the President who would win 280 or so electoral votes. I see 2012 as much like Gore vs. Dubya except  that the President would add Colorado and Ohio and perhaps trade Pennsylvania for Florida.

Herman Cain would have had his chance had his marital relations been more like those of the President. You can be sure that the President would have never gotten away with even one sordid affair, especially with a white woman, as the right-wing media would expose such with relish... or ketchup, mustard, and pickles if such is your taste. Maybe Worcestershire sauce.

I see Gingrich vs. Obama starting off much like the 2008 election results as the minimum for the President (I find the pink shade for Kentucky and the medium-red shade for Kansas incredible, but I can easily see the President winning two of Arizona, Indiana, and Missouri while winning North Carolina and Virginia solidly with other gains imaginable. Ohio seems out of reach for Newt Gingrich to an extent that it isn't for Mitt Romney.

At this stage I can say that the auto bailout has saved the President because Ohio, which depends heavily upon the auto industry for well-paying jobs, seems to be fairly stable for the President. A strengthening economy, should such continue, puts the 2012 Presidential election out of reach.

This is surprising... until you realize that Newt Gingrich isn't doing well in neighboring Georgia for a Favorite Son.  This is the first poll that shows the President with a positive approval rating in Florida, and the first in which I have seen him within striking range of victory in South Carolina in a long time.

I am reasonably satisfied that President Obama would now defeat Bachmann or Perry in either state. If you don't like this result, then just wait a while for Florida, which gets polled often. Outliers don't  thrive on this map.

In view of the recent surge by Ron Paul in the Republican primary polls, I am now going with him as the "neither Gingrich nor Romney" alternative for now.  

Backtracking a little (to early November),

NC, PPP Obama 47-42
CO, PPP Obama 48-39
MT, PPP  Paul 48-40
AZ, PPP  Paul 43-42
PA,  PPP Obama 46-42

PPP, New Mexico. Binary choices are disasters for Romney, Paul, and Gingrich. Add Gary Johnson as the Libertarian nominee, and the Republicans do even worse. Johnson picks up more votes from people who would vote for a Republican nominee than from President Obama and about half the respondents for "undecided" in binary choices.

Gary Johnson could be the 2008 equivalent of Ross Perot if this poll he is the Libertarian nominee. Sure, he would be a sort of Favorite Son, and I would be interested in how he would do in other states.

"Purple State Poll"

IOWA:

46-39 Obama/Romney
48-36 Obama/Gingrich
48-37 Obama/Jeb Bush

NEW HAMPSHIRE:

45-48 Obama/Romney
49-41 Obama/Gingrich
48-43 Obama/Jeb Bush

http://www.purplestrategies.com/wp-content/uploads/Purple-Poll-Results-12.2011.pdf

VIRGINIA (Quinnipiac)

Obama                46%    Gingrich             41%
Obama                42%    Romney             44%  

Both Gingrich and Romney do very badly among college-educated people, which might suggest that the well-educated can see right through Gingrich and Romney.

http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x5822.xml?ReleaseID=1684

New York (Quinnipiac)

In an early look at the 2012 presidential race, President Obama tops two leading Republican challengers:

* 53 - 35 percent over former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney;

* 55 - 32 percent over former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

https://uselectionatlas.org/POLLS/PRESIDENT/2012/polls.php?action=indpoll&id=3620111218015

Yawn!

NEW JERSEY (Eagleton/Rutgers)

The poll also finds that Obama holds a strong lead in head-to-head matchups with all three GOP front-runners. While Romney does best, Obama leads him by 51 percent to 32 percent. The president doubles Gingrich, 54 percent to 27 percent, while Paul loses, 50 percent to 29 percent.

Some of these polls seem really weird. Obama winning South Carolina in all 3 polls? Obama leading Gingrich in Kentucky and Kansas, despite trailing in Ohio?

1. Only one entity polls Kansas, and that one has a result that looks like a transposition error.  But even as a transposition error it is amazingly close, at least with Newt Gingrich. Kansas should be one of the very strongest states for any Republican against Barack Obama, who lost it by nearly 15%. Only three counties went for the President, and even Sedgwick County (Wichita) went decisively for John McCain.

Kansas may have been a haven for Republican moderates when Dole and Kassebaum were Senators, but that is past. The state may not be the most polarized in America on 'race', but it also has few minorities. The economic base heavily relies upon ranching, an activity that seems not to require a highly-educated workforce, let alone big government. Except for metro Kansas City, Wichita, Topeka, and Lawrence, it is not at all urban. 

Any Republican nominee who loses Kansas does so in a debacle resembling the Presidential  election of 1932, 1936, or 1964.

2. South Carolina may be undergoing political change. Take a good look at its neighbor North Carolina. Like North Carolina it is attracting many Yankee migrants, and those bring relatively liberal values with them. South Carolina is urbanizing, and if it lacks a giant metro area like Atlanta or Charlotte it has several mid-sized cities big enough to need Big Government. It's easy to imagine that the public sector is overstretched as the Hard Right dominates.

The last Democratic nominee to win South Carolina was Good Ol' Boy Jimmy Carter in 1976 in a one-time election in which poor Southern whites voted their economic interests just as poor Southern blacks did. Should that happen again, then President Obama wins South Carolina. Does anyone see that happening? President Obama has an outside chance of winning the state in something like a 55-45 split of the Presidential vote nationwide.

3. Kentucky used to be a legitimate swing state. That is over. In 2008 the current President was a very poor cultural match for a very rural state with few minorities. This was the ninth-worst state for President Obama in 2008, and he lost the state by 16%.  It's safe to say that if President Obama wins the state then he has won a landslide in the electoral college... and he has won over the sorts who voted for Bill Clinton but not for him.

4. Ohio has consistently been close. Such is exactly what one expects in a 50-50 election. Several states seem to bounce around the 50-50 area, and except for Colorado (becoming a disaster for the GOP) and Arizona (would have been close if someone other than John McCain were the nominee)  those are the states that went from Dubya to Obama. The medium-to-large states most  in question next year for the President will be Arizona, Florida, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, and Virginia. The Republican nominee will have to win every one of these states to have a real chance. Michigan and Pennsylvania are Republican pipe dreams in 2012, and I don't see Mitt Romney winning New Hampshire unless he throws resources into the state more critical elsewhere. 

So far I see a pattern. The 2012 Presidential election looks like a GOP disaster with any GOP nominee other than Mitt Romney. Mitt Romney is in the position in which he has six or so critical states to win, all of them easily characterized as 50-50 propositions. He must seal the deal on them all or lose. One chance in 128 is a very poor position (the chance of getting six coin tosses going one's way) and a horrible proposition. The six states in question are diverse enough that no single appeal works in them all, and that they are scattered enough that spirited campaigns in them all will be difficult.  If Romney strengthens in Arizona or Missouri but loses ground in Ohio or Virginia then he is defeated.

The position of Mitt Romney ten and a half months before the Presidential election looks much like that of John McCain around late August or early September of 2008 -- having a chance to win if everything went right by winning Colorado, Florida, Missouri, Nevada, Ohio, and Virginia. The position in which anyone else is looks much like the electoral result of 2008, perhaps with President Obama exchanging Indiana for Arizona or Missouri.  Such is a difference between the President having about 265 electoral votes as near-sure things and having about 360 electoral votes as near-sure things.

Nevada (University of Nevada/Las Vegas Review-Journal/CBS 8:

Obama had 45.7 percent support compared with 39.8 percent for Romney in the survey, a six-point advantage. The remaining 14.5 percent said they didn't like either choice or didn't know whom to pick.

The president crushed U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, 45.4 percent to 35.7 percent, in the poll for a 10-point advantage. And Obama stomped Newt Gingrich by 12 points, 47.3 percent to 35.4 percent.

Nevada has an even worse economy than Michigan or Ohio, and President Obama is ahead.
  


under 1% white
1-2% shade 20%
3-4% shade 30%
5-7% shade 40%
8-9% shade 60%
10% or greater shade 80%


Above 10% the distinctions are effectively moot in a winner-take-all statewide election.


Obama vs. Gingrich:



Obama vs. Ron Paul.

Really a dreadful showing for Republicans in a state that they have lost only twice since 1964, and a state that they absolutely must win if they are to unseat President Obama. If this state is decided by a razor-thin margin in 2012, President Obama wins.

Almost any strong third-party or independent candidate wins the race for President Obama.
