America will know who the next President is very early on election day. Florida, Ohio and Virginia will tell the tale. Who cares how Calif, Wash or Ore vote---by the time their results come in --the election will be over.
Well, they only tell the tale if Obama wins them because Romney can't win without them. Obama could lose all 3 of those states and still win if he carries WI, IA, CO, and NV.

I disagree, those intrade numbers haven't moved since the first debate which tells me they are being manipulated. Which I don't doubt they are. I will take your intrade prediction and raise you one Presidential election prediction model that has been right with every Presidential election since its inception in 1980

Obama’s smug, arrogant, condescending nature is coming through just in time for him to lose the election.
BOCA RATON, Fla. — Mitt Romney crossed a major threshold early this week, moving above 50 percent in his favorability rating with voters, according to the Real Clear Politics average of polls — and for the first time in the campaign he now leads President Obama on that measure.

The Republican presidential nominee has clearly benefited from the debates. He had a 44.5 percent favorability rating at the end of September, before the debates. But by Monday, when he and Mr. Obama faced off for the final debate of the campaign, Mr. Romney’s favorability average was up to 50.5 percent.
Tom Jensen, director of Public Policy Polling, a Democratic firm, said Mr. Romney’s favorability surge “really has been remarkable.”

“It was inevitable that Republicans were going to warm up to him once he became their nominee, but ever since his big victory in the first debate, his numbers with independents have improved a good deal as well,” he said. “We’re actually finding in our national tracking now that Romney’s favorability numbers are better than Obama‘s, which no one could have imagined six months ago.”

Obama holds narrow edge two weeks ahead of election: Reuters/Ipsos poll


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama pulled slightly ahead of Republican Mitt Romney in a Reuters/Ipsos daily tracking poll on Tuesday, but the race remained essentially tied with two weeks to go until the November 6 election.
Obama led Romney among likely voters by a statistically insignificant margin of 1 percentage point, 47 percent to 46 percent. The four-day online tracking poll includes some responses taken after the two candidates' final televised debate, but the full impact will not register for several days.

Obama maintains a larger advantage in the state-by-state battle that will determine the outcome of the election. Ipsos projects that Obama holds an edge in the most hotly contested states, including Florida, Virginia and Ohio, and is likely to win by a relatively comfortable margin of 332 electoral votes to 206 electoral votes.

brett, did you even read the article? How old is it? It speaks of data 5 months old that will be updated in September.

Actually on the night of the first debate obama was 78% chance of winning re-election. When it was over obama dropped to mid 60s. He currently is around 59%. They "numbers moved"!! But in my opinion, in the wrong direction.

Who cares? They can't vote!

You're right - but usually they'll vote for Anti-American parties (governments) afterwards, hurting your exports and job creation even more.
And don't forget Romney's planned trade-war with China and maybe India.

Good luck !
