Obama advisors may think the stae is winnable, but PPP is showing a likely GOP scenario, with a 40/57 approval for the President and Romney favorability above 50%.

Romney 53%
Obama  44%

It's not unexpected, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was by 10+ points.

I expect Romney to win around 52% of the vote, and Obama about 41%

You expect that much to go to third parties (7%)!?! Shocked

Why may I ask?

There are 3 candidates that I know of are running as third party.  They could split the vote by 2-2.5% at least.

I know math isn't your strong suit (or thinking in general, for that matter), but 2% is NOT equal to 7%
You should really watch what you say, cause you're going to piss some people off by saying negative attacks.  Don't be a jackass.  

My numbers are off, no need to point out the obvious stuff.  When you have 3 third party candidates that take 2.5%, 2.5% and 2%, it adds up to 7%.

The math is good, but I don't see why you would get 3 parties with at least 2%, when in 2008 none managed even close to 1%.

Maybe they are just good pollsters.  The house bias might come into play as well.

Jill Stein, Gary Johnson, and Goode.  I'm only factoring in the big name third party candidates.  Averaging the numbers in 3 ways is the easiest outcome.

like Ras but for democrats...

Party id: R +16 (R +7 in 2008)

So optimist for republicans but the Obama +8 amongst independents (+5 in 2008) is probably overestimated so all in all, global result is fine.
