Go ahead and put North Carolina & Florida in the Romney column.
I disagree.
I don't know about North Carolina, but Florida was a big Tea Party state, and those Tea Partiers are not living up to the hype. Governor Scott won a close election, and he hasn't been real popular, and Scott nor Romney are too popular in this state. With the Hispanic population and retirees, and young folks that like Ron Paul, I think Obama will take Florida with ease.
The only potential monkey wrench that could hit the gears would be Romney choosing Marco Rubio as VP. Rubio is technically not eligible to be president, but that hasn't stopped Obama, and Obama surely won't bring that up in the campaign! Rubio is still hugely popular and he might swing the state in Romney's favor, but as of this moment, I'd say Obama has a HUGE lead in Florida.

I prefer Jeb Bush.
------
When Scott Walker wins in a landslide victory on June 5, 2012 there will
be drastic changes made over at the DNC.
One sure thing is VP Joe Biden is gone.
-------
The ripple effects of the Scott Walker victory will be seen all across America.

Truth is that cuts needed to be made, things couldn't stay the same without disaster happening fiscally. Walker at least had the balls to tell people that. I honestly don't know how union supporters can say with straight faces that things didn't need to change. I'm sure they liked the status quo, but when government employees end up with far better employment packages that can no longer be sustainable then the private sector has, something has to give. There was no way to keep things the same.
That all of the money and effort that nationwide Union supporters put into the whole Wisconsin fight, only to have it fail on them will be a pretty telling lesson to them hopefully. They made Wisconsin their "line in the sand" and now it looks as though they will lose for the third time in Wisconsin.
Just take a look at Wisconsin school districts before and after Walker.......you tell me if they are in better financial shape. The Wisconsin voters will determine if he should be recalled, regardless of how much money has been spent by both sides on this. Truly a waste of a lot of money by both sides.

I mean, just the biggest thing that bothers me about Walker is how he was sneaky when he signed that bill to take away women's rights
