The toe-sucker's latest 180-degrees-from reality prediction should give the president what he needs for the final push to defeat Willard
Dick Morris appeared on a special Sunday broadcast of FOX News' "On the Record" with host Greta van Susteren to reaffirm his prediction that Mitt Romney will win Tuesday's presidential election in a landslide. Morris discussed the states he believes Romney will win and the number of electoral votes he predicts the Republican candidate will end up with.
Morris says Romney will capture 325 electoral votes while Obama will get 213, a significant difference.
"It will be the biggest surprise in recent American political history," Morris said. "It will rekindle the whole question on why the media played this race as a nailbiter where in fact Romneys going to win by quite a bit."
Morris tells van Susteren pollsters are oversampling Democrats and says a poll that claims Obama is up 3, really means Romney is winning by 4.

Very sad.

They are also predicting a Mittens win at 311 to 227 here: http://www.examiner.com/article/mitt-romney-likely-election-day-victory-indicated-by-latest-polls?cid=db_articles
Dean Chambers was kind of enough to call out his friend Dick Morris in the article.

(4,551 posts)The last Republican to sweep the Electoral College and get over 300 EV was Bush I in 1988.
A lot of people in the media never bother to mention that. You have to go back 24 years to find an election in which the Republicans had numbers like that. W. never got to 300 EV.
By contrast, the Democrats have gotten 300 Electoral Votes 3 times over the past 20 years. (1992, 1996 & 2008.)
The odds of Obama getting to 300 EV are much greater than that for Romney.

(264 posts)OK, Dick Morris is an idiot, we all know that. But George Will is no fool and he's also predicting a Romney landslide. Do they really believe this or is it just a cynical attempt to influence voters?
One thing for sure, many Rethug voters are convinced that Romney IS going to win by a landslide.
Which confirms what I've always felt. Not all Rethugs are stupid and/or ignorant, BUT MOST STUPID/IGNORANT PEOPLE ARE RETHUGS!
