Real Clear Politics, now, has moved Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and Wisconsin to toss-up status from leans Obama. Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, to toss-up status. I know people living in Pennsylvania, they can’t believe this. Well, I know one guy who lives in Pennsylvania who does believe it. I know one guy who lives in Pennsylvania who thinks Romney’s gonna win. I know another guy who’s from Pennsylvania that thinks it’s not possible. It doesn’t matter. Obama doesn’t have it locked up. He doesn’t have Michigan locked up. He doesn’t have New Hampshire or Wisconsin locked up. They’ve move to toss-up from leaning Obama.
But Suffolk University pulled out: we’re not gonna waste any money polling in Virginia, Florida, or North Carolina. Those states are leaning Romney, are now, they say, gone for Obama. Here we are three weeks out, we’re looking at Romney 51 points, the magic 50% number has been hit by the challenger. This is when the pollsters start telling you their stuff really is accurate and it really matters. There’s other polling data to cite as well.

I know they have. I know they’ve been saying Romney is losing. The bottom line is Obama is sitting there right now with a lock on seven to nine states. That’s it. The toss-ups are Florida, that’s Romney, North Carolina, that’s Romney, Virginia, that’s Romney, Wisconsin, that’s trending Romney.
Pennsylvania, there are people who actually live in Pennsylvania that think Romney’s gonna win this thing. Some don’t; some do. Missouri probably gonna be Romney. Still a toss-up. I don’t want to say too much right now ’cause it’s still a long way to go, but… (whispering) it’s gonna be a blowout. I didn’t say that. You didn’t hear me say it. No, I said, (whispering) “It could be a blowout.”
I didn’t say it.
