Republicans in a Landslide

There are ten days left before the election and I still predict the Republicans will win in a landslide of epic proportions. Here are some of the changes that have been made since my last prediction on October 7th.

While blacks voted overwhelmingly for Obama in 2008 some black churches are now preaching against Obama because of his support of gay marriage, his perceived lack of help for the black community, his support of illegal aliens who take some work away from black workers, and God being left out of the Democrat platform. Some black voters who supported him before will not vote for Obama.

While most Jews are liberal and vote Democrat, Obama's support of Muslim countries around Israel, his intervention in building on conquered land, his affront to Netenyahu, his White House parties honoring  Islam and his refusal of seeing Hammas and Hezbollah as mortal enemies of Israel. These are tearing away some Jewish votes away from the Democrats.

Christians took note that the Democrats did not want God in their platform and placed it there reluctanly. Obama's support of the gay community which, in turn, gave him huge financial support placed some distance between Christians and his party. The Pro-Life people, who are a majority in this country, took note of Obama's stance on abortion.

The size of crowds that Obama once gathered are now down significantly, he is unable to inspire as well as he did in 2008. Those that do come out to see him are no where near as enthusiastic as they once were. When Obama speaks to them they recognize that they have heard it all before in 2008.

The crowds that come out for Romney are larger and more lively. The choice of Ryan as V.P. has removed the Democrats derision of Palin which did peal off some Republican voters from their ticket. The debates showed that Romney is not the personification of evil that the Democrats portray in their ads. He came out as a likable, family man, with a love of his Country and a person with a good history of getting things done.

The Catholic Church is now in fighting mode and has made it clear that a Catholic voter must take his conscience in consideration when picking a candidate. They make it clear that pro-life is the Catholic choice and Catholics must inform themselves which candidate are supportive of pro-life. They must also determine which candidate supports marriage defined as between one man and one woman. Pamphlets are given to each person after Mass reminding the reader that he must discern which candidate  supports the Church's position. They do not say for whom to vote but that they must vote with their conscience.

Once more, Republicans in a landslide.

  • Are you a human being? You sure sound abnormal.

  • I wish you were right but I fear you are letting your hopes drive your predictions. Romney MAY win but landslide? I think not. 2008 Obama voting blocks (blacks, Hispanics, Jews, unmarried women) may be disappointed in Obama but vote for Romney? I think not. At the most, a few may not vote at all which may help Romney win. Also, there are about 10 million more eligible voters since 2008, mostly gullible "heads full of mush". Romney may or may not win but the election will be razor thin.

  • John,
    "letting your hopes drive your predictions." The support for my predictions have been listed and you are still doubtful. What to make of my certainty and your doubt? Can it be that you are more intimately connected to liberals while I am surrounded by, in McDonough, Republicans. This state is mostly Republican and your state is definately liberal. John, you have to get out of lala land and to a place where you are understood. Bring your gun.

  • Does the Catholic Church make a distinction between being pro life and pretending to be pro life? It sounds like a direct endorsement of Romney, "vote for him he’ll believe whatever you want him to."

  • Marty,
    I am surprised at you. As a recovering Catholic you know that nobody can know what is in another persons heart.

  • One more comment before the vote. Many people that will vote for Romney do not talk to pollsters. These people are comfortable in their own skins and do not need to share what they do with other people. The polling science has has not yet learned how to account for these people, or to measure them. These are the people that will vote Romney over the top with a huge margin all over the country.

  • Well Marcel you were half right. There was a landslide. 330+ electoral votes for Obama. God help us.

  • What a beating. I was wrong on the president, wrong on the Senate, wrong on the increase in the House, wrong on the turnout. This is most humbling and I have to take my hat off to those who thought I was wrong in my predictions. Further, more study is required before I believe I have information that others do not have.

  • John, You were correct in not going along with me, and, in not beliveing that the election was in the bag. You were correct in beliveing it was going to be close. You certainly know the leftists better than I do.

  • I too thought Romney would win but I was pretty confident it would not be a landslide. An average of all the leading polls showed Obama ahead in every battleground state within the margin of error. I was shocked Obama won by such a large margin.
