You make quite the assumption about voter turnout assuming the the vote will reflect the polls exactly . That being said, most of Romney's support comes from loss of White males that had voted Obama previously in states that never vote Republican anyways. If you look at the purple/swing states in all the polls today there is nothing, but positive news for Obama. Even the most consertvative stat collector sites like real clear politics actually reflect a shift in favor of Obama in most swing states. Get all huffy about history all you want it means nothing to me.
I also love how you show only polls done before the 25th.

I posted straight from the site, dude. The polls are from the 24th. Stop being such a pedant, that's the information they have. I didn't DISCLUDE information, I included what they had.
Real Clear Politics isn't remotely conservative either. It assembles almost all the polls, which would sway it liberal if anything.
Swing state polls clearly show the same race since the first debate, which is momemtum for Romney. Any other notion is, quite frankly, ridiculous.
Your bias and obtuseness to facts is astouding. Keep dreaming.

I don't know where to go with this. You don't win the election because you win the popular vote. The fact that winning the popular vote and electoral victory usually coincide does not mean that winning the popular vote results/causes electoral victory. That's not how the system is structured, but I think you understand that.
You seem to be arguing for the sake of arguing. I said its perfectly feasible to lose the popular vote and win the election. You say "no" and then precede to give three examples that prove my point, one happening just 12 years ago. I don't know what else to say besides your previous post essentially proves my point.

It isn't feasible to lose the popular vote and win the election. There are only 3 such situations in history where this occurred. Those are statistical outliers. Citing 3 such situations out of probably 30 modern era elections is not supporting your claim at all.
Winning the popular vote nearly guarantees you win the election. That is the counter to your point. This is the case in the other cases of modern era elections.
Put it simply, you: 3/30 me 27/30. Which is more likely to occur? =/
