Registered voters nationally and in 12 key swing states are evenly divided in their preferences for president in the 2012 election between President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney.
However, the big problem for Obama is not the numbers, but their timing. Every Republican primary contender has a disadvantage in these surveys as Democrats are fairly united on Obama as their nominee, while Republicans are passionately split on theirs. Romney, for instance, has had a consistent cap on support from GOP primary voters of about 25-28%, with plenty of anti-Romney — and yet he manages to muscle into a tie with registered voters. Rick Perry has descended into single digits in some primary polling, and yet he gets within 4 or 5 points of Obama. And while the media tried to paint Cain as a novelty candidate, the Georgia business leader grabs a virtual tie with the leader of the free world.
When Republicans unite around a nominee, Obama will find himself in a deep hole.
they wont unite around romney, only the moderates and disillusioned dems will, as i explained in a prior thread.
nothing about romney is conservative or republican, and hes nobodys first choice outside of the moderates and disillusioned dems who are only a small part of the electorate. the big conservative block wont vote or will go with somebody else.

He's not Obama and that's good enough for me and millions more.
This is the result I anticipate; Romney is a true challenge for BO in swing states. The kool-aid bunch surrounding him on stage at the "Debates" 9and I use that term loosely) is not near as strong in these critical states. Bear in mind, the actual polling dates (as opposed to the published date) were before the Cain scandal was well covered. I'd bet the next polls show BO 5-10 additional points above both HC and R(I)P. with Mr still neck and neck.
This shows Scarborough is right "Crazies can't win". (The Big game of Nov, 2012)

but thats not enough to make a difference in the end.
people will vote for obama.
people will vote for ron paul.
people will vote for herman cain.
small base, but people will vote for santorum.
nobody is going out of there way to vote for mitt romney. his only hope is that these people end up showing up and doing the lesser of 2 evil things. that never works though.
nobody wants romney to win the nomination, nobody. you cant win the presidency with that type of problem.

I tend to agree, at least as far as the primaries are concerned. Other then Virginia, Florida and the Rare South Carolina poll. Romney is in trouble. He comes in 3rd in North Carolina, very distant 3rd in Georgia and Lousiana and he has not broken 10% in Texas in any October poll which puts him in 4th there. If consevatives are not motivated to vote for him in the South that could make Southern States costly battle grounds rather then gimmes and that would certainly hurt him.
