Here’s where I think we’ll be when it all shakes out:
I know it may look to optimistic to some, but I think that Romney will take it with an overwhelming amount of electoral votes. I’d love to see Nevada turn red this year, but despite the horrendous economic conditions there, I think the muscle of the service workers unions puts Obama over the edge.
As far as the “swing states” go, Florida will handily go to Romney, and it will be close in Ohio, but no cigar for the Republicans. Colorado will comfortably go to Romney, and Paul Ryan’s good looks and ability to do math will bring Wisconsin to the dark side (where Walker will squeak it our for the win in the Senate race). I think Virgina will be close, with Romney ultimately getting the win after being the closest state race in the country.
And, a final local prediction – Arizona will go to Romney by at least 10 percent.

I think you are WAY too pessimistic. I see a much wider margin of victory.

I would flip PA & OH, personally.

Thanks Sean and Bitter, I value your input and you’ve both got me rethinking my predictions.

I said that, but after what we saw at the polls today, I could easily be wrong!

Oh, really? I’m glad to hear it, Bitter (not the part about you being wrong, of course).
