Weird Liberal Head predicts Obama is practically guaranteed re-election in 2012, predicts Obama will keep all of the states he won in 2008, and lists some red/purple states that he predicts the president will pick up.
Thank you for watching. Let me know what you think.
2010 will be a good year. 2012 will be a GREAT year.

2. Maybe I Am...
Thank you! Maybe I am the voice in your head...
I think I am actually being generous to Romney in my predictions. If anything, this is a conservative estimate. I also think that places such as Kentucky, West Virginia, and Arkansas could go blue.

3. It'll only be a good year if people go out and VOTE.
Kind of important, wouldn't you say?

4. I Couldn't Agree More
We could have this election in the bag if we can get the young people who voted for Obama in 2008 out to the polls again this fall.

5. That is definitely a great point about getting young people to the polls
Personally, I don't think that Romney will be that strong of a contenter in 2012. Then again, you have your own internet show about politics and I don't, so who am I to say.

Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming, Weird Liberal Head!

6. Thank You!
As I said in another comment, I thought my map was generous to Romney. I think that Obama would have a good shot of taking Arkansas, West Virginia, Kentucky, and maybe even Tennessee if he faced off against Romney.
You are right, Romney won't be a strong contender, but he's probably the GOP's best bet, and the person most likely to win the primaries.
I have a map in which Obama faces off against Palin. According to my calculations, she could even lose Kansas, not exactly a blue state.
As we get closer to election day, I'll have more maps, and I will be updating them. Democrats should easily win in 2012, especially if Obama survives a primary challenge from someone like Hillary Clinton or Howard Dean.
Once again, thank you.

8. Well...
...polls show we have a good chance of picking up senate seats in places such as Kentucky, Alaska, and North Carolina, and gubernatorial seats in Texas, Georgia, and Idaho.
Those are just a few examples.

12. On Wikipedia
Check out the races. Alaska, for example, Governor Parnell leads his Democratic opponent only 53-43%.

9. Unwatchable.... Trite .... Basicaly a Vanity Video....
If watching a distorted ("special effect") young teenager read off a list pf states ....very slowly ... for 30 seconds .... is your idea of entertainment then this is for you. Aside from that this is just another vanity YouTube alledgedly with a political bent.

Pretty much a waste of time.
