The blue states are states that Romney will easily win in 2012, given that Obama's approval ratings are less than 55, maybe even 60%. The only way the South would be when Obama is leading by double-digits. You could also reverse that and say the Northeast could come into play... if Obama's approval ratings are below 40%.

KY and WV safe for Romney?

In his defense, much of it was due to Republicans being unpopular nationwide. In May `06, his approval rating was 46%. The way his numbers changed were similar to George H. W. Bush: They were high at the beginning, became average, plummeted at the end, but recovered when he was out of office.
Yes, Bay Staters may not have liked Republicans overall, but the results were fueled primarily by disapproval of Romney and his management of the state. He pretty much destroyed the local Republican party, which is outnumbered 7 to 1 in the state senate, and 9 to 1 in the state House.
Once again, you're just making assumptions based on no factual evidence. Romney must have been somewhat popular in Massachusetts. He easily won the primary there.

Mitt Romney only won the Massachusetts primary over John McCain by 10 points. That's far from a landslide win in one's home state primary. He would also have absolutely zero percent chance of swinging Massachusetts to the Republicans in the general.

Romney is not a popular figure in New England or anywhere in the Northeast. That is a myth.

That will not happen, he is like a use car sales man. Smiley Right now I support Gary Johnson Smiley...
Gary Johnson = The most overrated politician in America. (I like him, but his support is being overestimated)
Well, back in January `08, I was convinced Hillary was the anti-christ, and would do anything to stop her. I was strongly rooting for Obama in the leadoff states. But just a month or so later, I started rooting for Hillary, and now I consider myself a supporter of her. Wink
How is Gary Johnson overrated? The mainstream establishment likes to pretend he doesn't even exist.

Gary Johnson is a good guy, but he has no chance of winning.
Says who?

Really, logic predicts the outcome of the 2012 election?

Anyone with half a brain can realize that Gary Johnson won't win the GOP nomination. Anyone who thinks other wise is deluding themselves.

But those with a whole brain think otherwise. Wink

Johnson might be pro choice, but not enough where it changes the status quo. The only thing that effects the issue of abortion is the Supreme Court. I'm unfamiliar with his stance on gay marriage, but again, it's something that the Federal Government isn't going to impact. Granted, he endorsed Ron Paul (A man whom I have much respect for) but regardless, if a liberal Republican like Giuliani was leading the polls at one point, and a moderate such as McCain clinched the nomination (though part was due to a divided conservative base) there's no reason Gary Johnson cannot do so.

Yeah, its probably the drug legalization issue that's going to cause Johnson the biggest problems.

I know the GOP has a robust conservative base, but i've looked up videos of him on drug policy and all I remember is that he advocated a more reasonable approach. (I myself support decriminalization, but oppose REGULATION of marijuana, for the record.) He probably won't win the South Carolina primary, but if you have several southern conservative candidates, he'll clinch the nomination.

New Hampshire would probably be the best place for Johnson to start. Since South Carolina is an open primary, it could also be winnable, just as it was for McCain.

South Carolina could be winnable, indeed. McCain primarily won South Carolina because Fred Thompson ran interference and drew support from Huckabee. If he were to win big in New Hampshire, win in Nevada, eek out a win or come second in South Carolina, and then come 2nd or 1st in Florida, then there's no reason he couldn't enter Super Tuesday with "Big Mo" and win NJ, CA, DE, and possibly UT (though that would be pretty dicey.) Then, two weeks later or so, is the Hawaii caucus and Wisconsin, which'd certainly favor Johnson. I could go on, but I don't want this to turn into a long-winded hack rant.

If Romney's in the race, no shot at Utah. But otherwise he has a good shot at winning the primaries in many of the states that McCain-Palin lost to Obama-Biden.
