It comes down to numbers. And in the final days of this presidential race, from polling data to early voting, they favor Mitt Romney.

{snip}.... [and this is what I found very intersting-TAM]

Democrats explain away those numbers by saying that they are turning out new young Ohio voters. But I asked Kelly Nallen, the America Crossroads data maven, about this. She points out that there are 12,612 GOP "millennials" (voters aged 18-29) who've voted early compared with 9,501 Democratic millennials.

Are Democrats bringing out episodic voters who might not otherwise turn out? Not according to Ms. Nallen. She says that about 90% of each party's early voters so far had also voted in three of the past four Ohio elections. Democrats also suggest they are bringing Obama-leaning independents to polls. But since Mr. Romney has led among independents in nine of the 13 Ohio polls conducted since the first debate, the likelihood is that the GOP is doing as good a job in turning out their independent supporters as Democrats are in turning out theirs.

Desperate Democrats are now hanging their hopes on a new Quinnipiac University/New York Times/CBS News poll showing the president with a five-point Ohio lead. But that survey gives Democrats a +8 advantage in turnout, the same advantage Democrats had in 2008. That assumption is, to put it gently, absurd.

God, that man's an idiot! I wouldn't hire him to pick up dog poo.

This year, there's one at the far end of our street, but that's it. We had quite a few Romney signs until some jerk stole them all last week. Now we have a few back, and one 4'x8' sign with a light on it at night. That one happens to be in my yard. <G>

I'm nowhere near unbiased. I honestly fear for your 1st, 2nd, and 4th amendment rights with a second Obama term.

Still had Biden on the brain from the dog poo comment.

I appologize profusely to Ryan. My gaff was unforgivable.

I guess they don't think that military personnel are working men and women.

In calling for less spending on military pay raises, the report basically endorses a plan proposed, but not yet executed, by the Defense Department.

So this "progressive" (read: LIBERAL) "think" (read: FEEL-GOOD) tank is merely endorsing a plan that DoD is already considering.

Just because the "Plan" comes from the DoD does not make it apolitical.
