Romney and his team completely fucking botched this presidential campaign in every conceivable way. It's so bad it almost seems like they're doing it on purpose. His only chance of winning would've come from convincing moderately educated, fiscally conservative, socially centrist, white middle-class voters in the swing states that Obama was gonna tank the economy with his social programs. Yet, for some reason, he has this idea that he has to connect with these rural right-wing nutcases. Like the other day he was talking about how he won't let "them" take God off of American coins... who the fuck said anything about taking the word God off of the coins? Shit like that is gonna completely alienate him from the aforementioned population that was his only route to a win. And anyone with half a brain knows he doesn't believe in any of that shit, or anything for that matter; it's all pandering - as fake as his weird Ted Bundy laugh.


New York Times 538 blog is really the only required reading for this election.

They got Obama with an 80% chance of winning, which is a little generous, but I'd still say it's gonna be a landslide.
