Default Will Romney be the Next President?

I'm betting that Romney will be the next president. Romney is projected to out spend Obama by at least 2 to 1. In American politics, the odds that an outspent candidate, such as Obama, will win are 6 in favor to 94 against (or roughly 1 chance in 15). Hence, I'm betting Romney will win the presidency.

Who do you think will win? And why?

Probably Romney, because of the general ignorance of the American public.

Probably, because people are fed up with Obama (including me), but I don't see electing Romney as a good solution.

Obama. People are fed up with how the right wing does things. Besides, Obama pretty much has the gay vote, the Hispanic vote, and unless something's changed- the African American vote.

Majority of white people over the age of 40 will vote Romney. Also hispanic conservative christians will vote Romney. The US is getting older, older people vote Republican. And everyone making 200k+ will vote Romney regardless of race.

It's a toss up, the Republican campaign machine is far richer and thus more powerful than the Democrats.

Who do you think will win? And why?
I thought the Dems had the most money these days. What's your source for Romney outspending Obama 2 to 1?

I think it will be very close.

I'm pretty sure Obama is going to win. For some reason, these things always seem intuitive to me, and I'm usually right guessing elections.

Obama has some died hard fans, and this bleeds into every tax bracket, every culture, every age group.

It doesn't matter... Obama vs Romney is like voting between Hitler and Stalin.

From the get go, I have seen Obama winning. The Republican party screwed itself over by having too long of a race for the GOP candidate. That in itself hurt their work. And then he's Mormon, which does make it harder for him to win. And let's face it, he's not a very charming guy, so it's not like when JFK became the first Catholic to be president. I think the Republicans knew they were fighting a loosing battle from the beginning, and that's partially why they allowed such a messed up GOP race in the first place.
