Michael Moore says that Mitt Romney BECAUSE of all the cash that will be coming in on ads will be the next POTUSoA. Of course we ALL know that Moore's prognostications are more spot on that nerdy Nate and his sill data...at least that's what some right here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/1014213724 are telling me...

Marsala
(2,090 posts)6. It's been rising recently, though it is too early for the "bump" from the RNC to be visible
If, that is, Romney gets one.
At any rate, I'm pretty sure that Obama's odds are higher in Nate's model now than they were at this time in 2008, though Nate's model is probably far more sophisticated now.
