thanks to sandy he probably won't win. just heard on NPR he's loosing ground as romney continues to campaign and obama can't.


I couldn't disagree more.

I mean... what could be better politically for Obama in the middle of an arguement about the correct size of govenrment... then a giant disaster that forces a number of states to rely on government?

Allowing him to look presidential and confident, while Mitt Romney either has to disapear until the end of the storm, or continue to do campaign stuff and look fakey and have people challenging him for campaigning during a national emergency.

 

The only real issue is early voting.  Which may or may not matter because I don't think the polls take that into account so much... and if anything might help.


Since there is a weird cascade effect in American politics, where if you win the east states you have a better chance of taking west states.

you can disagree all you want.  it's not really my opinion, i'm just stating what NPR reported this morning which is that obama's recent poll numbers over the last few days show him dropping.   maybe they were wrong about it being sandy's fault but i'm just saying what i heard.
