Moody's Projects That Obama Will Romp Over Romney In November

but I guess we can't get greedy.

after putting on a convention there ...

Lets make it happen!

but we are doing better then past years. GOTV is important here, helping folks get to polls etc.

I think that Texas will be competitive in 2016 and that the Democrats should carry Texas in 2020.

be amazing indeed! But there are areas that certainly should be blue.

Just keep up the good work, and maybe we can get some lower level offices turned blue this time around!

Fort Bend has been called a bellwether county so often that it’s easy to become skeptical about the use of the term—even if the description is accurate.

Fort Bend, which sits just southwest of Houston, is among the most diverse and fast- growing counties in Texas, part of the “Big Five” fast-growing suburban counties along with Collin, Montgomery, Denton and Williamson. It has pleasant subdivisions with genteel names like First Colony and Sugar Creek and an abundance of retail outlets along Highway 6, which barrels through Sugar Land, the heart of state House District 26.

After 16 years, Republican incumbent Charlie Howard is leaving the legislative seat once held by Tom DeLay, long before he became U.S. House majority leader. Four Republicans, including two women of color, are running for the open seat.

County GOP Chair Mike Gibson said the candidates have no “overriding” disagreements on policy issues and that the candidates’ backgrounds will partially determine their success.

Republicans have dominated Fort Bend County for years. They still do, despite the departure of many Anglos and the arrival of many people of color and first-generation immigrants that have transformed Fort Bend into a majority-minority county. The county’s population is about 660,000, of which 36 percent is white, 24 percent Hispanic, 21 percent black and 17 percent Asian, according to the most recent U.S. Census.

Fl,NC, and Mo will be in the Democratic bag....according to MY crystal ball.

East Kansas outside of St. Louis, Kansas City and Columbia is a lost cause...too many pockets of completely back-ass hill-jacks with racial issues and gullibility issues to boot. I can't even tell you how depressing it is just in Dick Gephart's old district...further out from the metro area than that and you might as well be in Montana, Idaho or the actual Kansas.

I will cast my vote for McCaskill and Obama and both will lose this state by wide margins...

A lot of people thought FL was lost in '08 too but it eventually swung Obama's way.

Good news ... Romney can't win without a very long night.

But you're right, while I don't see Romney winning this, if he does, it will be very narrow and not over until maybe even early morning.

How bout several weeks and multiple recounts and lawsuits? Followed by a 5-4 SC decision, of course... lol thank God I don`t believe for a second it will be that close this time. Obama will win a second term. I just hope he gets to serve it there are a lot of truly psychopathically ill people in this country right now and the GOP doesn`t mind encouraging them.

And maybe AZ. So it would be 358 EVs. I still think Obama has an outside chance at Indiana also - it was hit hard by the recession but has bounced back some under Obama. Unemployment there is at 7.9% for April.

We have a shot to flip Florida and North Carolina back by November, and I think we will. Also, Missouri and Arizona should be up for grabs for us, too. In this scenario, we could afford to lose all those states and Ohio and Virginia and still win, which is good news.

(assuming they win swing-ish states Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New Hampshire), then the Romney campaign will have to win Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, and Virginia to win. Obama is in great shape in the Electoral College.

And we will be booting out at least 3 of 4 Rethug Reps that gotten in by the way of Teabagging, and there's been a long buyer's remorse..
