Karl Rove, Dick Morris, Predict Romney Win

By Susan Duclos

Both Karl Rove and Dick Morris are predicting a Mitt Romney win when the votes are tallied and the electoral votes decided after the November 6, 2012 presidential election.

Karl Rove, a former deputy chief of staff to President George W. Bush, who also helped organize the political action committee American Crossroad, predicts a narrow win of 51 percent for Mitt Romney and 48 percent for Barack Obama with Romney taking 279 electoral votes, (270 is needed to win) or more.

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.

In addition to the data, the anecdotal
and intangible evidence—from crowd sizes to each side’s closing
arguments—give the sense that the odds favor Mr. Romney. They do. My
prediction: Sometime after the cock crows on the morning of Nov. 7, Mitt
Romney will be declared America’s 45th president. Let’s call it
51%-48%, with Mr. Romney carrying at least 279 Electoral College votes,
probably more.

 Dick Morris, a former adviser to Sen. Trent Lott (R-Miss.) and President Clinton, is the author of Outrage, Fleeced, Catastrophe and 2010: Take Back America — A Battle Plan, is predicting a Romney win by a landslide, using the term “historic proportions.”

The result was that the presidential race reached a tipping point.
Reasonable voters saw that the voice of hope and optimism and positivism
was Romney while the president was only a nitpicking, quarrelsome,
negative figure. The contrast does not work in Obama’s favor.

His
erosion began shortly after the conventions when Indiana (10 votes) and
North Carolina (15) moved to Romney (in addition to the 179 votes that
states that McCain carried cast this year).

Then, in October, Obama lost the Southern swing states of Florida
(29) and Virginia (13). He also lost Colorado (10), bringing his total
to 255 votes.

And now, he faces the erosion of the northern swing
states: Ohio (18), New Hampshire (4) and Iowa (6). Only in the
union-anchored state of Nevada (9) does Obama still cling to a lead.

In
the next few days, the battle will move to Pennsylvania (20), Michigan
(15), Wisconsin (10) and Minnesota (16). Ahead in Pennsylvania, tied in
Michigan and Wisconsin, and slightly behind in Minnesota, these new
swing states look to be the battleground.

Or will the Romney momentum grow and wash into formerly safe Democratic territory in New Jersey and Oregon?

Once
everyone discovers that the emperor has no clothes (or that Obama has
no argument after the negative ads stopped working), the vote shift
could be of historic proportions.

 Morris also thinks that Obama’s parting gift to the Democratic Party will be the GOP taking control of the Senate, 53 (R) to 47 (D), the opposite make-up of what it is now.
