    270 would be a long way down from where he is currently, for sure.

    I know you are trying to be clever, but why not share with all of us your prediction of the states that Romney will win, so that if you are correct we can all bask in your glory.

    there are multiple paths, but R/R will come in @ 285, or greater. my guess is north of 300.

    Is this like the Romney tax plan? You promise it works but actually have no details. There are only so many swing states - it wouldn't take more than a minute to list the ones you are sure Romney will win.

    probably easier for you to list the ones Obama will lose.

    I'll give you a head start, aside form the obvious ones:

    R/R wins Florida, Colorado (duh), and Ohio. they also win one of WI, PA.

    the rest is pretty easy to figure.

    If Romney wins, which Romney will step up to take the oath of office?

    From the swing states, I think Obama wins OH, WI, CO, IA, NV, NM, VA. I think Romney wins NC, IN, MO (I think these 3 are a virtual lock for Romney, even in the most optimistic Obama scenarios). And FL and NH would be tossups. I don't think PA is remotely close. If Obama loses there, he'll have lost all the other swing states.

    That would put Obama between 299 and 332.

    Appointing multiple Supreme Court Justices (likely candidates = Ginsburg, Kennedy, Scalia) from a court that upheld Roe 5-4 will be on the agenda of the next president.

    For those a little slow, Romney just threw the religious right under the bus.

    But no worries; the campaign just walked back the comments...in a tweet
