I did not expect things to be this close, this quickly. I bought into the notion, as recently as this week, that Romney was so blah, even to his own folks, that he would always trail in this election, never getting past the mid-40s mark. And then because he could count only the Obama haters as his constituency.
Fact is, this is too close to call. In fact, things are trending Romney's way and he might even be a slight favorite right now. As usual, it is going to come down to about 4 or 5 key states. Living in Florida I expect to be inundated with ads here in about a month or two.
On a lighter note, it is clear that the country is about 48-48 right now, almost intractable on both sides, meaning that billions are going to be spent winning over tiny parts of particular counties in those 4 or 5 states.
Basically, no matter who wins, the other side will immediately start campaigning against him, through their respective mouthpieces. We may well be getting to a place where one term presidents are the norm.
