[QUOTE=Whirlaway;3100375]Here is what the electoral map blow out looks like according to the U of Colorado prediction....
Sweet, isn't it ?
So are you or Joe Bloe ready to take me up on that offer?

Your source actually makes a better case that Romney donates more money percentage wise than Obama. Your source shows that Romney donates 15 times more than Obama to charity. Using the figures Kayla cited, it only amounts to 6.66 times and 10 times more that Romney donates over Obama (using her 2 numbers for Romney). And the 3% she uses for Obama also include what Biden donated.
Ok, just to throw a little more fuel on the fire, here is another view of what will happen in November, which includes references to the UC study mentioned by the OP. Depending on what one looks at, a person can most likely find something for every side and opinion.The model you note is interesting and does show a clear contrast with the Colorado study. And your conclusion that you can find whatever it is you are looking for, if you look hard enough is dead on. But let me take this opportunity to challenge this model with polls that still shows states like Wisconsin, Ohio, Virginia and Colorado all still leaning to Obama. This author does not cite which polls he is relying on to reach his conclusions here. Is he relying on the Real Clear Politics average, which is not very useful in showing very recent trends? We don't know because he does not tell us. And don't get me wrong here, I am not defending the Colorado study. My point is we need to take all of these "models" or "studies" with a grain of salt. And I think this was what you were saying also. It is still way too early to predict which way this election will turn out. We still have both party conventions, the debates and who knows what else may happen between now and the election that will influence the final outcome. But this model as well as others like the Colorado study does make for interesting reading.

Obies #'s just happened to be part on the article that offered Romneys #'s ... that article being from fox seems to be less argueable than other sources. I simply offered Kayla a different source for her own knowledge, not to argue with you about something you insist on arguing about that had nothing to do with the point
I am trying to work with you here. Earlier, I threw you a life line but you simply refused to grab on it. Originally Posted by NiceGuy53
