Bob Beckel: It's Over
— Ace

He doesn't say it's over-over, but he does actually say that if the numbers are right (Gallup's), it's over, and points out the lead is outside the margin of error.

He notes -- again with the caveat "if the numbers are accurate" -- that there is no way an incumbent can push a challenger back below 50%, once he's above it.

Meanwhile -- and this is awesome -- Romney is finally considering advertising in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

CNN is reporting just as IÂ’m writing this that Team Mitt is indeed moving some (but not all) of its assets out of NC.
Update: Reported at the Post, too.


They were already pondering shifting to Pennsylvania, and this was pre-squatch.

More: CAC brought this to my attention, but I didn't post it: ARG has Romney up 1 in Ohio, and up 4 (50-46) in Colorado.

I'm still on Squatch Patrol.

Oh, and Senator Clownfart embarrassed himself again.

1 by "margin of error" does he mean they can't possibly overcome it with the massive voter fraud they've already prepared?

3 Just a reminder.

Obama is unelectable.

Posted by: Dave in Fla at October 18, 2012 01:07 PM (dX4hn)

4 Sounds like the right move to me.  Polls showing him within the MOE in two states that were recently thought to be unlikely when NC looks locked up?  Move some assets.

As hard as it is to imagine, these polls are so imprecise that MOE>>MOF.

 

HOWEVER: if the error actually happens to skew all in one direction (and we know the fraud skews all in one direction) then to be confident of victory, your margin must exceed MOE+MOF.

 

In any event, +7 is likely > MOE+MOF.

T @ 18 - given that Obama lines of attack the last 2 weeks have been Big Bird and binders, I would tend to agree with Beckel hearing about full-blown panic in the Obama campaign.

I think I am going to pull up the 1988 elctoral map, move California to Obama, and make that my prediction for election day.

It's very plain that Beckel views it as his job to push the Democrat line, and he makes a game effort.

 

He would have been formidable if this show ran during Clinton's terms, but Obama gives his spinmeisters  fucking  NOTHING to work with.

 

Every now and then, though, he reminds the audience that he's a paid operative, not a wild-eyed True Believer.  I kind  of admire that, having had  to defend positions I didn't agree with or believe in.

79 I think back to the latter stages of the primaries, and Axelrod and his merry pranksters were drooling over the prospect of running against Mitt. Every surprise and weapon they had to use against him has utterly failed. I think, barring something very unusual, that it really is over. All we have to do is get to the polls with at least 2 or 3 other voters.

Obama should have dumped Biden and put either Hillary or Ed Rendell on the ticket with him.  He's going to lose Pennsylvania. 

 

There's a huge stealth campaign I just found out about with Jews in the Philly suburbs.  Obama support is tanking with them.  GOP sending surrogates like Norm Coleman and Ari Fleischer in for meetings and coffees in a few synagogues and private homes.  Word is getting around.

The word "extreme" has lost some of its political punch, because it is tossed around so frequently.  But Tammy Baldwin really truly is extreme, by any definition.  Her Congressional voting record is to the left of Pelosi. She votes no on bills where 90% of her own party votes yes. And not in a good way.  She is so far left she is out there with Maxine Waters. She is virulently anti-Israel.  She is the best friend Iran has in the Congress.  She's the Code Pink Wing  of Congress.  And she has boatloads of cash. She must not win.

Good men through the ages tryin' to find the sun.

Five year plans and new deals wrapped in golden chains.

Several people have signs out for the lefty-initiatives but not for JEF. That is very telling. I drove to metro airport the other day on surface streets. A 40 minute drive one way, through all types of economic class neighborhoods. Many signs for Romney and only two for JEF. Signs for local races everywhere just no visible support for JEF. No bumper stickers for JEF in the Mall or grocery store parking lots except for one old sticker that's been on the car for awhile. I think MI goes red this year.

No, his lead isn't outside the margin of fraud. I'm thinking it's either a Reagan/Mondale-like blowout or we lose. Maybe it's just me, but I can't imagine the cadre of true believers surrounding the President giving up power as the result of a free and fair election. Better than even chance we'll see the Chicago Way writ large, nationwide.

 

Of course, the President himself could refuse to concede on election day, claiming widespread fraud or voter suppression or general shenanigans and hijinks and demand a state-by-state recount. Democrats typically do well on recounts. We'll see, I guess.

213 guys, we really need to rethink this

do we really want to elect Romney?

I mean, what kind of message does that send to the real conservatives out here?

and with Obama re-elected, we could kill in the midterms

I really think its time we accept this, Romney is not the right candidate for us true conservatives

besides. Obama killed Bin laden

we can't top that

Posted by: concerned conservative at October 18, 2012 01:36 PM (uLTng)

214 The video update reminded me of a line i think Romney would be well served to use in the upcoming debate (and in the last one, too) re: Libya. In response to Obama's promise that we will bring the people that killed four Americans to justice, Mitt should say, "I'm all in favor of bringing those terrorists to justice, but i'd rather we worry more about protecting our men and women overseas before they're killed." Something like that.

163 anyone remeber what the maps looked like for Reagan on election day?

 

The general consensus was that Reagan was going to lose.

That's what the media was pushing.

Polls mostly showed Carter leading.

 

The DNC was running lots of Ads, showing Reagan in those black and white 'Monkey Movies' that he did....the Bonzo movies.

They were ridiculing the fact that he'd been an actor. 

 

The only Reagan Ads that I remember, were positive ones...where he talked about 'less govt regulation, less taxes'.

238 The Winston Wolf doctrine needs to still be in effect. That being said, for the next 20 days it would be good to gleefully mock the Obama campaign and thoroughly demoralize (D) voters. They know (thanks to the first debate) that Barky is a crap candidate and offers nada for the next four years. If we can simply get them to stay home, it will vastly improve (R) chances in the Senate. Obama could have been the (D) Reagan (filibuster proof (D) Congress!), instead he's in line to be the next Carter.

Government Accountability Board in Wisconsin was publicly disseminating information as recently as two days ago that no address verification was required to register to vote here.  We have same day registration at the polls.  You don't have to show a drivers license. People in the Walker recall were registering and voting instantly by showing junk coupon mailers as proof of residency and poll workers were accepting them as okay to register and vote on site.  We are 40 miles from Chicago.  It is not a pretty picture.

Carter was ahead 5 or more points, but after the one debate that "softened" and John Anderson being in the race made it complicated. 


What apparently happened is that many independents switched from Anderson to Reagan after the debate, which was about a week before the election. 

I was in the UK; polls closed 7pm Eastern, 12 GMT in the UK, and by zero30 hours they were calling it for Reagan.   Shocka...

301 Makers frigging Mark is overpriced. I often drink bourbon straight, in fact most of the time I dring Ezra Brooks 90 proof right from the bottle, but I like Crown for it's smoothness, and on special occasions, like the removal of mental sickness from the halls of power. I have a Canadian girlfriend, so it's ok not to hate everything Canadian these days, or at least their whiskey and women.......heh.

Don't get cocky.  The Obama team definitely is getting out the African American vote for early voting in Charlotte, NC.

 

Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill will probably go to Obama -- but I am optimistic that Romney will keep the margin closer than McCain did.  Romney should win virtually every other part of NC.  But its all about turnout.

My husband is a professor and conservative. We are just now allowing ourselves to discus how we should celebrate. I cannot tell you how wonderfully delicious it is when the democrats lose to be on campus. When TJF is gone all these passive aggressive academics will be so sad. Sadder than they have ever been. My husband's best gloating election story happened January 1981. He was still in grad school and brought his tiny black and white TV into the lab to watch Reagan's inauguration.

321 Guys, I wouldn't be getting to cocky about the results from Gallup. We trusted the bastards about as far as we could throw them about a month ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they're trying to keep the Romney people at home on Election Day thinking its in the bag. C'mon, no other poll has Romney out that far and they are being sued by the DOJ right now......perhaps they're doing exactly what Barry wants them to do.

This is what we need to start focusing on. Now.

For you North Carolina Winston Wolf fans:

Early voting reports for NC, 2012 election

Total Votes: 50,674

Dem: 13,887 = 27.4%

Rep: 27,455 = 54.2%

Unaffiliated: 9,255 = 18.3%

Libertarian: 77 = 0.2%

Compare that with 2008:

Dem: 51.4%

Rep: 30.2%

Other: 18.5%

Pucker up.
