The Seven “Swing States” And Four “Red” States Which Will Decide The Presidential Election Of 2012

Many ill informed people might think that the Presidential Election of 2012 is nearly even, based on some public opinion polls that show the popular vote close or tied, particularly the case with Fox News Polls, which tend to distort reality, but are believed by those who see that so called “news channel”, and the “poison and hate” it disposes, as being absolute Gospel!

But in reality, the election is NOT close at this point, with the decision based on seven “swing” states, all of which Barack Obama won last time, and all seven in which he has a clear lead at this point.

Of course, no one can live on polls at any moment of time, and it will be essential for Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and others who speak for the Administration to get out there and be actively campaigning and spreading the word over the next six months, but the fact that Mitt Romney has major problems with Independents, women, Hispanics and Latinos, Young people, and Evangelical Christians, make it clear that he has a massive set of challenges to overcome Barack Obama, and this is not the time to put betting money on the former Massachusetts Governor.

The seven states that will be most paid attention to, and visited by both campaigns over the next six months are Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Colorado and Nevada.

Additionally, four “red” states have a shot at switching to Obama, with those states in order of likelihood to switch including Missouri, Arizona, Montana and Georgia.

So instead of listening to propaganda, realize that it is these seven “swing” states and four “red” states that are the crux of the election!

    Hello Professor,
    Good information and with the hopes that it all plays out as you have described. I would also like to stress the importance of gaining the majority of the Congress to develop, pass, and then have the President into law, the legislation needed to break this political gridlock we now have.

    For the wellbeing progress for the citizens of this country, the President is at least going to need the congressional branch of government.

    Not only will Barack Obama need a strong Democratic majority in Congress, but also, he will have the ability to select Supreme Court Justices and other federal judges that will affect the interpretation of the Constitution for up to two generations.

    This is, as I have stated elsewhere, the most significant point about the election, moving the judicial system toward a more balanced basis, instead of the strong right wing control now evident in the federal courts, due to so many Republican appointments since 1980!
