Electoral outlook for November

Everyone's entitled to support whatever party and candidate they wish. But with that said, if a president and/or the folks he appointed to staff his administration act in ways that seem to lead the country to destruction, we all have a right to know who to blame for his election.

In the 2008 election the following states went for Obama:
California
Connecticut
Delaware
Hawaii
Illinois
Iowa
Maryland
Maine
Massachusetts
Michigan
Minnesota
New Jersey
New Mexico
New York
Oregon
Pennsylvania
Rhode Island
Vermont
Washington
Wisconsin

These states are generally considered to be President Obama's base states, and in polling this year he's expected to hold all but two (Michigan and Iowa).

Because Obama's support is down in most of these states, conservatives are enthusiastic about this news. I'm not so optimistic, because if a candidate wins a state, the margin hardly matters.

Frankly, unless one of the many scandals Obama has triggered breaks through into the mainstream media, I don't see how Romney is going to win.
