Florida, Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina, Colorado, Iowa, Nevada, and New Hampshire.

That's conceding 247 EVs to Obama.

FL is then a must win. No margin for error.

They can lose OH if they win all of the other 7.

When you get down to VA and NC you have a bit more breathing room. They cannot lose both, but if they lose just one, they can afford to lose a couple more of the smaller states.

The 25 EVs total from the smaller states (CO, IA, NV and NH) are also sufficient to carry Obama to victory.

I don't like their odds.

That NV and NH aren't really in play, using Nate Silver's scenario generating algorithm. He has both of them more solidly D than WI.

That leaves even less room for a rMoney win.

That's the ridiculousness of his numbers.. He has no plan. Frankly, the job creation that the President has already presided over, dwarfs those Romney numbers. the Obama Team can easily run ads to blow them out of the water. dumbasses.

ps. WHERE ARE THOSE TAX RETURNS??????
