More and more pundits on both political sides are taking the electoral leap and predicting a landslide for Mitt Romney. Here are some notable ones:
1. CNBC Anchor Larry Kudlow
Kudlow said on his CNBC show “The Kudlow Report” on Oct. 25: ”I am now predicting a 330 vote electoral landslide.”
2. MSNBC Host Joe Scarborough
Based on Scarborough’s insights on Politico:
“But my gut tells me there are two likely scenarios: (1) President Obama will squeak out a narrow Electoral College victory or (2) Mitt Romney will carry Ohio and be swept into office by a comfortable margin.
After practicing politics for 20 years, I suppose I would rather be in Mitt Romney’s shoes than Barack Obama’s. Incumbents who are under 50 percent two weeks out usually go down to defeat.”
3. Strategist Karl Rove
Rove said Wednesday in the Wall Street Journal:
“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.”
4. Columnist George Will
George Will outlined a huge Romney Election Day in an interview on ABC’s “This Week,” predicting a 321-217 landslide that included nearly every swing state including Minnesota.
5. Pundit Dick Morris
In a recent editorial for The Hill, Morris explained in detail his landslide prediction:
“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.”
Morris also predicted a huge day for the GOP in the Senate:
“The most likely outcome? Eight GOP takeaways and two giveaways for a net gain of six. A 53-47 Senate, just like we have now, only opposite. Barack Obama’s parting gift to the Democratic Party.”
6. Columnist Micheal Barone
The Washington Examiner columnist says Romney will walk away with 315 electoral votes:
”Bottom line: Romney 315, Obama 223. That sounds high for Romney. But he could drop Pennsylvania and Wisconsin and still win the election. Fundamentals.”
7. Las Vegas oddsmaker Wayne Allen Root
Root said in a column posted on FoxNews.com:
“I’m predicting a 5 to 7 point popular vote victory. Electorally it won’t even be that close. Romney will win many states that went to Obama in 2008. I’m predicting Romney victories in Ohio, Florida, Colorado, Virginia, Iowa, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, North Carolina, and Indiana. I predict a Romney victory by 100 to 120 electoral votes.”
7. Israel
Abe Katsman of the Times of Israel writes of the Romney landslide among American voting in Israel:
“The Presidential election results are in. Well, at least the votes from Americans in Israel. Not one to keep readers in suspense, I’ll reveal the most important numbers up front: Gov. Mitt Romney received 85%–85%!–of the vote; President Obama managed only 14.3%. This, according to exit polling just released by iVoteIsrael, the non-partisan group promoting and facilitating voting by U.S. citizens currently in Israel. Their statistics reveal some fascinating results. More importantly, these results have implications for the outcome of next week’s election. (Again, not to keep you in suspense: those implications favor the Republicans.)”
BONUS: Glenn Beck
“321-217 victory for Romney in the electoral college.”

Nov. 4, 2012 at 5:14pmBonus? OK, that was funny to see Beck in the Bonus section. Evangelical vote is going to be key. And it will be. Don’t be surprised to see exit polling in O’s favor, and then lose. Evangelicals don’t talk to exit pollsters, and they sure don’t talk to pollsters from their home phone. They will come out in droves for Romney.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 5:48pmAre there any rational people that will talk to a stranger about their personal views? I have hung up on every pollster that has ever called. Of course, that probably counts as a democrat vote…

Nov. 4, 2012 at 5:13pmIt is great that there is so much support for Romney and many think he is going to win. However; it is best to not count the chicks before they hatch. There will be people who vote for Obama because of the cult of personality, Hollywood endorsements, and because they have been misinformed and scared into not voting for Romney. It will have little to do with Obama’s “accomplishments”; which have been very few. Every vote is going to matter; especially since there have already been numerous accounts of voter fraud. It’ll be interesting to see how things go in NY and NJ because they will have email and fax voting because of Sandy. There have also been issues with military ballots and the situation is ripe for attempting to steal the election.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:57pmI can’t begin to predict what will happen on Tuesday. Part of me is excited and part is scared. But if there is a huge win for Romney, it’s going to be an ugly scene because our Boy King might not go quietly and his groveling minions will not either. Gird your loins, American.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:55pmNot my own thoughts, but I read them somewhere else. I believe they have some validity. Obama is only 50 years old. If Romney can’t turn things around, the economy declines, unemployment rises, etc. the Obama years could look like prosperity. Then people will WANT him back in 2016 and even 2020. I’m looking forward to him leaving the White House, but I’m afraid he could be back. Stay prayerful.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:52pmI predict California will go to Romney. Why, because I live here and we ALL think Obama is an abject failure. All of us except for the public sector unions, the political ruling elites, and the bleeding heart liberal Hollywood elites. Basically 75% or more of the voting public want Obama out. Romney wins by a huge margin, the republic is saved, and I get drunker than * to celebrate.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 5:03pmI sure hope you are right. I live in California, and the people I know (with only a couple of exceptions) are all pro-Romney. It’s time for California’s reputation to be cleansed. Remember, Regan came from California. Conservative Californians can step up to the plate when the chips are down. And the chips have never been more down then right now.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:44pmI think Rove has the best analysis of this listed. The scary part is that Rove has Romney winning by only 9 electoral votes. So any error, surprise, or cheating could easily give Obama the victory. It still blows me away that almost half of Americans have no idea how bad Obama is.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:22pmI guess I am a pessimist, but I lived in Chicago and I have seen what a south side democrat machine can do. I also [pray that obama be beaten AND somehow the senate goes to the repubs (although I am not all that happy with them). Without the senate, I see a really hard time getting rid of obama care.
One side note that is triggered by a posting by AmericanWomanFirst:
GOD can also be an acronym:
G – Good
O – Orderly
D – Direction
We have been far from good or orderly, but hopefully the direction will turn back to God.
I deserve what I get, but I thank God I don’t get what I deserve!

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:30pmMan I hope these guys are right! America needs to be freed from the bonds of Bolshevism that has taken over.
The “chosen people” controlled Marxist Media are predicting a landslide for Obama. The Jew York Times says it won’t even be close as Obama will destroy Romney. I sure hope they are wrong.
I guess it’s best to ignore the propaganda of the “chosen people” oligarchy Marxist Media. They are trying to throw the election for Obama-as CBS in Phoenix declared Obama the election winner 2 weeks ago. The only way Obama could win would be through a conspiracy between the “chosen people” Marxist Media and the Democratic Party to outright lie and say Obama won. They tried to do it with Gore/Bush declaring Gore the winner until FoxNews stepped in and said Bush won Florida. It wouldn’t be the first time the “chosen people” Marxist Media would like about the election results.

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:32pmRomney will win in a landslide, then the real fight begins, it is imperative that the new administration does not turn a blind eye to all the crimes committed by the current admin. It is also a must that the power that was stolen be returned to the people. Nearly 1000 executive orders must be rescinded on day one of Romney’s first term.
Did the Sun Times get played by Patrick Fitzgerald?

Nov. 4, 2012 at 4:13pmThe Democrats are cheating at the voting sites, and the same Republican leadership that allowed all four debates to be presided over by committed liberals, will sit back and take it.
There are 20 million illegals here, many of them will illegally vote for Obama, and none will vote for Romney.
Don’t count on a landslide.
