i am optimistic that mitt romney will win the u.s. presidential race.
the major polls show romney in the lead, ever the rasmussen and gallup polls, which have to this point been skewed slightly to obama's favor. this has to be very disquieting to the obama camp.
the stars seem ascendant in romney's camp. the polls have come his way. his political rallies have played to packed houses, with very enthusiastic crowds. and, romney is picking up newspaper endorsement after newspaper endorsement, some from papers that endorsed obama in 2008 and refuse to do so now, some from a liberal bent.
obama's campaign, by contrast, seems to have lost its momentum, his crowds are sparse and not very jacked up, and his backers from 2008 abandon him just as the rats abandon a sinking ship. he seems to have shot his wad, to use the vernacular.
his stars seem to be setting.
we'll know tomorrow evening. if the various networks and pbs start calling states for romney pretty quickly, i'll know that i am correct.
we'll see. but, i am allowing myself a smile now and again, just a little smile, and it feels nice.

p.s. others, less cautious then me, are buoyant. this is reassuring in its own way, as i am, by nature, inclined to have the wisdom of hindsight before i make "predictions." but, i think, given my druthers, that i would rather be mitt romney this evening when i drift off to sleep, than barack obama. his sleep, i think, will be fitful, and not very sustaining.
we'll see, very soon.
knock on wood.
I share your caution john jay. What troubles me to the core, and still will after Hussein is removed, is what put him there and protects him. All of that remains, protected by a global propaganda "media" and a government education system that churns out conditioned minds, not thinkers.
If ever exposed for all that it is, party division would be no more as we the people remove them, wholesale.
Thank you for what you do john jay. Sincerely.

sDee:
i am informed by email that dan rather says he thinks it "looks like a good day for romney."
that is hardly the net work "calling" the matter, but, we'll see.
it wouldn't hurt to say a little prayer.
as to the points raised in your comment, i agree that getting obama out of our house is only a start in bringing the republic back to good health, and vitality.
all of the network that put obama in office remains, and george soros in particular, and al gore and bill gates remain exceedingly powerful foes.
we have to remain vigilant, and involved, and keep the electorate's loyalty by keeping our promises, and delivering upon our goals.
but, as to this day, it seems that so far, so good.
prayer wouldn't hurt, either.
