Romney or Obama?

If this election were to be based on merit, Obama would win hands down. The Romney camp has employed every last dirty trick in the book and may very well steal the election. Unfortunately some people don't know how a recovery works, nor do they know the first thing about foreign policy. Mitt Romney works very well at lying about both.

Romney overwhelmingly won the first debate according to the polls which had him winning 70% to 30%. Obama edged Romney in the second debate something like 55% to 45%. In both of those the moderators favored Obama and gave him more time. In the third debate it was sort of a draw since Obama has access to information that Romney can't have. But in a way Romney was successful because he managed to draw Obama into debating the economy rather than foreign policy topics. Unfortunately there many voters who do not understand what Obama's policies and actions have done to the economy short term and long term and the same can be said for foreign policy. Some people actually think Obama has helped the economy when actually he has delayed a recovery and already set in place policies that will keep the economy down or make it worse. Obamacare has already raised taxes on everyone with more tax increases scheduled to start in 2013 which any one who deducts medical expenses will soon realize.

I think the Republicans got lost in Rhetoric while the Democrats kept an eye on the electoral vote and that should give this one to the Dems. I noticed Romney made a play for Pennsylvania in the last days of the campaign but that was a real Hail Mary play.

Honestly I've heard the opposite on FaceBook as to whom people seem to be rooting for. I'm not a fan of either... sadly one has to choose the "lesser of two evils" and pray hard they take us in the right direction!

In the most recent national polling average, as in, all of the polls put together across the nation combined, Obama is in the lead, but only by 0.2%! That's a really slim gap. However, Obama is also leading in 6 of the 8 key states (the two he's not leading in being Florida and Virginia) showing that he has quite a good chance of winning. Some groups say that he has about a 65-70% chance of winning the election. So, yes, Obama has a better chance of winning the election, although that doesn't mean it's actually going to go that way. One thing I know, is that I'm going to be watching the election come tuesday!
