6. This is absolute nonsense.

I said it earlier this week and I’ll say it again — the election isn’t over yet. Romney has really made things difficult for himself over the past few weeks, particularly this week with these 47% comments that have now hijacked his campaign. And there is a snowballing feeling of impending doom surrounding the Romney campaign as the gaffes, letdowns, and internal turmoil and infighting of the campaign all seem to be piling up. It seems like the wheels are coming off the Romney campaign right now. BUT, here are six reasons why the Obama campaign should remain a bit nervous, and why the Romney campaign should still have hope.

Way to trivialize an ongoing shit storm.


His room for error is gone. He has to win the first debate convincingly, stay on message, avoid any more gaffes or controversial statements, and pounce if Obama makes a mistake. Romney can still win, but he is going to have to basically pitch a shutout from here on out and have Obama hurt himself a bit by swinging at bad pitches.

Yeah, like he did with Libya. The whole point is wishful thinking.

The other points are possible because up to now Mitt has been given a pass by the media.
