Election Predictions
November 5th, 2012 - 3:32 am
You can read the prediction of PJM columnists (including myself) here. One commenter mentioned that many of the columnists were too squishy and didn’t seem to want to commit one way or the other with their prediction. Fair enough. John Hawkins’s poll of conservative bloggers had no doubt: 87.9 percent think Romney will win.
What is your prediction for tomorrow’s election?
My prediction: unless it’s a blowout for Romney, it will be in litigation within 24 hours.
I dislike Romney but I hope he wins because I enjoy watching liberals in agony.
Obama.
Two Democrats I know admit the one good thing (for them) about a Romney victory would be that it would give them a chance to watch Yahoo.com have a meltdown.
Obama by the way. 275-263
Romney, no law suits, no coat tails
Romney with 350+EV total.
NJ, NM, OR, MI, WA, ME all with margin’s of victory of less than 2%.
That’s on either side of the coin, BTW. Sandy is going to play havoc with NJ’s election results.
Undecided – like 2000 all over again only in 2-3 states and lawyers/angry demonstrators all over – including riots by OWS tied groups, with Obama winning in the end. Media declares huge mandate, ignores any calls for investigation while demonizing any Congressmen asking for hearings. 2nd term begins the death of Progressivism by scandal much like 2nd Bush term lead to death of Neo-conservatism.
Dems keep control of the Senate, GOP keeps control of the House.
Maybe I’m just jaded and cynical.
Romney by more than 300 in the electorial college. I haven’t seen a single Obama sign this go around in my little Florida town. The Romney signs are everywhere.
And you were to poll Liberals bloggers I’m guessing you see something like a 90% chance of an Obama win. I’m not sure that this is the best source.
my only prediction.
Scary no matter who gets in.
None of the above is the best choice for president.
FWIW, Romney. This year, in particular, I have zero faith in polling data. It’s not going to be close is my gut call.

I called it for Obama: http://theemeraldlight.wordpress.com/2012/11/06/obama-has-election-all-but-clinched/
Of course I’m not a conservative (except on some social issues), so my prediction is going to differ from that of conservative bloggers.
Well, so much for predictions. Shall we create a betting pool on how long it takes Obama to add another six trillion dollars to the national debt?
Being the opportunist that I am, I was at a Romney party till it was obvious how things were heading, so I took off and went over to an Obama party that I knew about, and picked up a sweet young thing that told me this was her first time voting, so I took her home to celebrate her victory – and mine…
This election just showed me that the US is doomed, so I’ll be closing down a couple of businesses – funneling those funds to several that I’ll be opening in Asia – but as with all things, I will survive and there will be new opportunities. As long as you have no scruples, and take advantage of people, there are always ways to turn things in your favor. So, I’ll be taking advantage of those people who voted for Obama and want things for free, and laughing all the way to the bank as they find out how expensive “free” things can be.
There is a fundamental shift taking place in the US, with dead-beats coming into power and hard work and effort no longer paying off, so I’ll leave for greener pastures once it benefits me to do so. But until then, I will do what I did last night – take advantage of the situation as it develops.
