For the record, I will vote for President Obama, however, I believe he will lose this election. If I'm wrong, then I deserved to be smacked by you all. This Benghazi incident In Libya is hurting the President among members of the military here. I believe it will bleed over into the general public who are beginning to feel that the President lied to them. I still think it will be the economy that will make the difference. Unfortunately, the President will not get the credit he deserves for saving the economy from a depression when he came into office. He had a mess dropped in his lap. If he lose, I feel someday he will be vindicated by history.
Yea, that's what the public cares about Benghazi! I always like the saying while military is at war the public is at the mall. The economy will be his problem. He will not be vindicated by history if loses! Romney will do all the same crap he did and will look like a moderate. This is why he needs to win!
The people screaming about the Benghazi incident are hypocrites. If the American public is so stupid as to not see this, then they deserve the hell unleaded upon them by mitt the twit and his backassward side kick. Unfortunately they won't be the only ones who suffer through the massive disaster that would be Romney as cic. If he is elected the whole entire country will need relief funds. To bad the asshat wants to cut FEMA and make it for profit.
It isn't until you have a disastrous event, do you understand how much FEMA is needed. [sarcasm] Of course that is not the time to point out who said it shouldn't be [/sarcasm]
If the American public are stupid, they are stupid. Try talking to the average dupe on the street who do not know what the fuck is going on around them. These are the dupes who can be easily controlled to your way of thinking and manipulated with ease.
I'm actually voting for Romney, but I believe Obama will win based on current electoral vote standing. Voter turnout will be a huge factor though, especially with weather concerns on the east coast.
I am not sure which poll to believe or what outlet but it appears it might be a close game at this point and can go either way. But I agree with Arch if BO lose will not be vindicated by history! In fact will be labeled the worst president since the formation of the union.
I'm tired of explaining why Obama will win next Tuesday. If you doubt the prediction I made several months ago, you're just not smart enough and never will be.
We had a foreign CONSULATE in Benghazi, not the embassy in Tripoli, that was targeted by militants/terrorists. As more info is revealed, it's been discovered that the CIA sent assets to defend the consulate which arrived minutes after the attack. Did people expect a regiment to protect the U.S. consulate in Benghazi?? Usually the host nation is responsible for embassy security, so if there was a mistake made by the State department, it was in assuming a newly democratic Libyan government could effectively protect a U.S. diplomatic installation. The enlisted military doesn't have enough votes to sway an election. All indicators are that a Romney victory would be a significant upset based on poll numbers. Obama and the State Department may have been partially negligent in the Benghazi attack, but so far they haven't outright lied about anything. Don't expect that from a Romney administration. Let's come back down to reality people. If Obama loses, his administration won't be labeled THE worst in American history. Andrew Johnson, Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton were all impeached while in office. Consider the handful of U.S. presidents we had before the election of Lincoln who defended the institution of slavery and promoted its expansion into new states. Pro slavery >>>>> slow economic recovery under Obama.:smt026 Dubya was so ostracized by his own party that his name has not been mentioned in two RNC conventions. If Obama wins, he could potentially top 300 electoral votes.:smt002 Polls may not always be right, but it's rare that they are wrong in every swing state.
Obama has an 80% chance of winning, according to 538.com. However, the hurricane could affect voting in some counties in Ohio, and most of Pennsylvania, which are swing states. We also have to be aware of voter fraud coming from Mitt Romney. The Republican Party could steal the election, and it's not possible for the website to account for that. http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/
According to RealClearPolitics it is dead even in VA. Romney leads by 0.5% on average. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/va/virginia_romney_vs_obama-1774.html In OH Obama has an edge, he leads by 2.3% http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/oh/ohio_romney_vs_obama-1860.html In NV Obama has the edge on average by 2.7% http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/nv/nevada_romney_vs_obama-1908.html In Iowa Obama has a 2.0% edge. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/ia/iowa_romney_vs_obama-1922.html In CO Obama has a 0.9% edge http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/co/colorado_romney_vs_obama-2023.html In FL Romney has a 1.2% edge http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/fl/florida_romney_vs_obama-1883.html In NH Obama has a 2.0% edge http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/nh/new_hampshire_romney_vs_obama-2030.html In WI Obama has a 5.0% edge http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/wi/wisconsin_romney_vs_obama-1871.html Taking all this battle states into account, I still think it will be a close election, but Obama will pull through as he leads in most of the battleground states. I will also add Nate Silver's aggregate poll forecast and Intrade's prediction market where Obama is getting almost a 70% chance of reelection.

Only Fox News is obsessed with Bengazi and Romney mentioned it on the debate but,it did not stick. So,I doubt Romney will win because of what happened in Libya.
Benghazi will not be a significant determining factor in the election because the story has not gotten enough broad scale traction.....Your concerns haunt you only because you have probably been watching some Fox News coverage........The rest of the major news networks, which so many Independents and Democrats tune into, are willing allies of the the President and the democratic party and have coordinated themselves so as to stifle the story and not sully the presidents chances.......What will drive people as they go into the polls is what a leadership can do to improve their financial condition.......
