Obama re-election chances upbeat on DU - What about the conservative discussion sites?

My right wing pal and I never discuss politics anymore since it is the one area that causes a rift between us. Neither one will ever convince the other of seeing things any other way. I have a positive outlook towards the election results from what I have gleaned from the sites I read. My friend would never read anything from 'Democratic Underground' or 'Bartcop' for instance. He has his own conservative sites, Fox News, and AM (hate) radio shows to gather his information. I did have occasion to listen to him and one of his RW buddies discuss politics recently and they seemed positive that their side would win.

My question is this - since I don't follow the other side, what is the conservative outlook on the chances of their side winning?

I have heard the buzz that Repubs plan on turning would-be voters away if they are not currently registered in their district of residence. This could be devistating to the re election, if thousands are unable to vote due to this technicality!
