I know the economy is the top concern, but most polls show this as a decisive advantage for Romney (by 7% in the last ABC poll). This is what gives me the most heartburn about tonight. People are dissatisfied, there is no getting around that. We can talk until we are blue in the face about improving economic indicators, but if people trust Mittens on this issue more, and that is driving them to the polls, it could make this a longer night than I want. That is the only thing keeping this election close.

Is that Party ID is 37% Democrat, 34% Republican. Compared to a 39-32 Democratic advantage in 2008.
