Ohio Is Solid Obama

Mitt Romney's entire gameplan of crossing 270 electoral votes goes through Ohio. And Ohio is solid Obama. I suggest Mitt Romney expand his litany of lies instead of "expanding" into deep blue states. Maybe maybe it will work. But then when you cry wolf just one more time ... you can't fool all the people all the time.

That first Obama debate performance? The poor guy was flummoxed by Mitt Romney's blatant lies. When it is night time Mitt Romney says it is day time. How do you react? You get flummoxed. You are in disbelief. There is a live audience of tens of millions.

Fundamental Dishonesty

Karl Rove is lying too. It is contagious.

These Numbers Are Incredibly Deflating For Mitt Romney's Chances In Ohio

Mitt Romney's need to "expand the map" is looking increasingly important this morning, as a new CBS/New York Times/Quinnipiac poll paints a picture that has the Republican nominee's chances there slipping away with less than a week until the election...... Romney trails President Barack Obama overall, 50-45, in the poll, continuing the president's stubborn advantage in the swing state. The set of CBS/NYT/Quinnipiac swing-state polls also finds Obama leading by 2 points in Virginia and by a single point in Florida. Though the numbers in the other two swing states have dropped in the past month, the state of the race in Ohio looks exactly the same........ an overwhelming majority of Ohio voters think the economy is improving....... By a 40-30 split, Ohio's voters believe the nation's economy is getting better. The state numbers show an even bigger gap — 52 percent of voters think the economy is getting better, compared with just 17 percent who say it is getting worse...... Forty-one percent of these Ohio voters who say their economy is improving believe that Obama deserves a lot of credit for it. That contributes to Obama's lead over Romney in trust on handling the economy...... Sixty percent of Ohio voters said Obama identifies with and cares about their problems. Only 44 percent said the same about Romney.

DRUDGE REPORT: 'Sex Scandal To Hit Campaign...'

Mitt Romney Has Been Telling A Huge Whopper About The Auto Industry, And His Campaign Is Finally Paying For It

Chrysler even sought to clarify this in a blog post last week: ... "Jeep has no intention of shifting production of its Jeep models out of North America to China. It’s simply reviewing the opportunities to return Jeep output to China for the world’s largest auto market. U.S. Jeep assembly lines will continue to stay in operation. A careful and unbiased reading of the Bloomberg take would have saved unnecessary fantasies and extravagant comments." ... But despite the fact that Romney's claim was demonstrably wrong, his campaign is doubling down in the new ad, which went on air this weekend in Ohio. .... "Obama took GM and Chrysler into bankruptcy, and sold Chrysler to Italians who are going to build Jeeps in China," the ad says. "Mitt Romney will fight for every American job." ..... The ad appears to be a last-ditch effort to reverse Obama's key advantage in Ohio, a must-win swing state where 1 in 8 voters are employed by the auto sector. Romney, who trails by an average of 2 points in Ohio, has taken a big hit in the state for his criticism of the Obama administration's auto bailout. ...... Ken Lortz, a United Auto Workers leader in Toledo, said that Romney's ad had only upset Ohioans "who know better.” .... "We knew he wasn’t on our side when the economy and the industry was on the brink," Lortz said "But the fact that he would lie to our faces and try to deceive us is just too much."

Mitt Romney approves this message, of course he does.

Barack Obama approves this one. Take that, Mitt.

Christie really just doesn't "give a damn" about politics, as he alluded to on Tuesday.

A New Wisconsin Poll Continues A Brutal Swing State Polling Day For Mitt Romney

President Barack Obama's lead has expanded to 8 points in a new Marquette Law School poll of swing-state Wisconsin, a 7-point swing from just two weeks ago..... He trailed in three new polls of Virginia, Florida and Ohio ..... In the Marquette poll, Obama's advantage has grown to 51-43 as the campaign hits its final week. Obama's standing improved 2 points from the school's last poll, while Romney's fell a significant 5 points. The poll gives Obama a 4-point Real Clear Politics average lead in the state in polls taken over the past two weeks. ...... In another state, Obama holds a big early-voting advantage. He wins the early vote 56-36 thus far — significant, as 10 percent of the 1,243 likely voters surveyed said they had voted....... Along with the Ohio results, the Wisconsin poll presents a dim picture for Romney's path to 270 electoral votes next week. Obama's path revolves around keeping Ohio, Wisconsin and one of Iowa or Nevada in his column. And in all of those states, Obama currently holds leads in the RCP averages of the states.
