Krauthammer: Obama Would Win if Election Were Held Tomorrow

Syndicated columnist and political commentator Charles Krauthammer had some surprising news for Bill O’Reilly Monday night on “The O’Reilly Factor.” After a discussion of the president’s campaign strategies, Krauthammer unequivocally told the Fox News host that if the election were held tomorrow, Obama would win.
But there are some caveats. Krauthammer added:
If he wins either now or November in your hypothetical, it will be a narrow win because he will eke it out with these constituencies…
If you look at all the polls, the average is that he’s got a 2-point edge in the popular vote. It‘s almost inconceivable that you’d have that strong an [excess] in the overall vote and lose in the electoral college.
But hope is not lost for Romney voters. Though Krauthammer was not optimistic about Romney’s chances if the election were held tomorrow, he reminded viewers that a lot can change by November:
I think all this negative stuff against Romney has had an effect of making people hesitant to switch from Obama to Romney. I think if Romney humanizes himself in the debates and does reasonably well, the way Reagan did in his debates, and [becomes] acceptable to meet the threshold for president, he wins, and I think that’s likely to happen.
Watch the entire interview, via Mediaite, below:
Bill O’Reilly, it must be said, began the program by provocatively pointing out a number of polls showing overwhelming support for Barack Obama, saying: “It looks like the president’s going to win in a landslide.”
Krauthammer responded: “Not really,” pointing out that some of the president’s strongest constituencies– the young, African-Americans, and Hispanics– will likely have a depressed turnout.
Some who “swooned in the aisles” in 2008, Krauthammer argues, will stay home in 2012 because they “know the reality of what Obama has wrought.”
O’Reilly proceeded to discuss women as another voting bloc, and Krauthammer said that Obama’s campaign is based on one idea.
“You go out and you try to seduce one ethnic or socioeconomic or gender constituency after another. Because you can’t run as a national candidate who has improved the country.”
He summarized: “He cannot make the appeal, ‘I’m the president of all Americans and America is better off.’ If he does that, he loses.”

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 9:53amRomney’s campaign, I’m of Winston Churchill remarks on the battle and landings of ANZIO…
Winston Churchill wrote the supreme Allied commander over operations in Italy, Sir Harold Alexander, with the critical words “I expected to see a wild cat roaring into the mountains – and what do I find? A whale wallowing on the beaches!” Such was his unhappiness with the progression of the battle.

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 9:48amSadly, it must be Krauthammer’s time to say something absolutely correct.
Of course Obama is going to be re-elected. Mitt Romney is an establishment fraud, an electoral burnt offering. His sole purpose is to keep the myth of 2 parties alive while ensuring Obama gets his second term to finish off the remaining pillars of the constitutional republic.
There are a few good elected Republicans but very few. There is no opposition party, there is 1 party, the progressive party. Their rule is unchallanged.
But keep voting Republican, keep waiving your flags at C-Pac and keep watching everything you know and love about America fade away into a soon to be forgotten past.
Because conservatives and libertarians and independents uniting under a new banner of “restoring the republic” would just be crazy and wildly unpopular. Gotta work within the “2 parties.” Bwahahahahaha…

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 1:30pmSnackrabbit, I believe you are correct. Reps will never see how corrupt their own party is. Funny how they can see the corruption on the Dem side, but not on their own side. I guess it’s normal not to smell your own stink.
I am not a Romney supporter, but at this point, I’m not sure we have any other choice that has a possibility of winning. If we can get Romney in AND remove most of Congress due to their anti-Constition BS, and make that known, we might have a chance at fixing this country. But, conservatives are not very good at organizing and are even worse at taking the time to get involved and make their voices heard, so there’s not a real good chance of that, either.
Perhaps it’s time to find another country to move to that still rewards hard work and actually knows that individuals build businesses instead of governments. Just not sure where that is — perhaps we’ll find out in part 2 of Atlas Shrugged this fall. Where are you, John Gault?

Nah man, I understand Krauthammer’s point about the young being unwise. I guess my position is the older folks aren’t without faults. Namely they’ve been fed so much propaganda throughout the years they actually believe it. Look at how many old timers on here not wanting anyone to touch their socialist ponzi scheme. Or how many want us out of the UN because they’re an evil institution, but buy into their nuclear agency’s propaganda about the boogie men. What I’ve seen from the younger folks this time around is a love for our country, a rejection of their commie indoctrination and thirst for knowlege because they know something isn’t right. While they are full of hope and idealistic, who wants to crush that? As Cavuto said the other day, he doesn’t understand how RP got kids to talk about the federal reserve.

yeah yeah yeah…he talks a good game….small government, State’s Rights over central government, whatever will get his supporters out..(most of whom don’t even live in his Houston district)..free drugs, no taxes, gays are ok, God has no business in government…whatever….he is an opportunist and an exploiter just like all the establishment HACKS in Washington DC

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 9:41amFor any Cain or Paul backer to vote for anyone other than Romney (assuming he’s the alternative) is childish and nonsensical. Those that argue there’s no difference between obama and Romney are poorly informed.
Report Post »It would not surprise me to see obama drop out at the last minute and madam Hillery to step in and win nomination. Hillary would surely win the election and finalize obama’s “transformation”.

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 10:01amLEL2007 I must be one of those poorly informed then because Obama care is essentially Romney care.Yes I know Romney claims he’ll repeal Obama care,it’s an election year and both are big government guys Barry is just a super size government tool.
Romney’s a crony capitalist and will maintain the business government partnership that should never have existed in the first place.

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 10:19amIts ironic that during the republican primary, the Romney campaign demanded Herman Cain come clean and be transparent about his relationship with those ladies.
Now, the public (as well as many within the republican party) are asking Romney to release his tax returns in order to clear the air….Romney refuses. HYPOCRISY

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 8:49amThe Marxist will win regardless, because we nominated another RINO. It’s as simple as that, folks. We’ve seen this movie before in 2008 and in 1996 and 1992, yet many of us fail to follow the basic storyline.
Also, that Obama will be re-elected is mostly a reflection on the poor character of the American people. We have to keep in mind that our brethren are making these disastrous choices, so we get what they deserve. There’s no longer any shame tied to voting for a candidate based solely on perceived – and short term at that – security.
I knew I would live to see these times, but never thought they’d arrive so quickly.

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 9:12amIf the Marxist POS gets re- elected it‘ll be because the leeches of society combined with the uninformed zombies who get their ’news’ from the msm,read only the headlines if that and some idiots with some residual white guilt. If Romney would just announce he would put an end to the welfare warfare state he could win but he won’t do that so…………………….

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 9:31amJust the sad fact that we‘re at this point as a nation just reflects the times we’re living in and the people doing the living.
I dislike ripping people steady, but it has to be done. One continually has to baby-sit the majority in this country because they’re slackers.

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 9:40amSadly, it will “necessarily” need to get worse before (if) it gets better.
You don‘t actually believe that we’re gonna get out of this nightmare that cheaply do you? I mean some high unemployment for a while, nominal loss of home equity, same with 401k/IRA savings – you think that was bad???
I don’t have the answers, but I certainly understand the problem.

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 11:16amWell, that‘s not a bad idea if you’re into long-term solutions.
Or, we can continue to delude ourselves into believing electing a “not Obama” is going to have any significantly positive impact on this nation.
My life is fine and will remain that way until I’m 6 feet under. However, that is not going to be the case for those a generation removed from mine. And, all for what? A few extra bucks in people’s pockets, and free health care and drugs (which wouldn‘t be necessary if people weren’t so fat).

Posted on July 18, 2012 at 10:04amKrauthammer is an establishment media pundit…he only looks at the “acceptable” sources….it isn’t hard to see that Obama is LOSING the popular vote as well…just look at the demographics they all love to quote…
Obama support among blacks… 95-4 in 2008, most liberal polls show 90-10 Obama in 2012.. -5%
Obama support among hispanics…66-31 in 2008, again most liberal polls show 54-39 in 2012 -11%
Obama support among women…56-44 in 2008, polls now showing 49-42 in 2012 -7%
Obama support among youth…66-31 in 2008, polls now showing 48-41 in 2012 -18%
Catholics, Jews, Evangelicals… EVERY demographic group EXCEPT Union workers shows a DROP for Obama…just the switch in Catholics is an 18 Million vote swing…Obama only beat McCain by 9.7 Million votes
http://www.westernjournalism.com/breakdown-demographics-shows-obama-trouble/
This is all based on polling done in April…granted…Romney has been losing in certain groups and areas….but by even a liberal point of view.. Obama is DOWN nearly 8-10 Million votes in the Popular vote…that is why all they care about is “SWING” states…they just want the electoral college because Popular really doesn’t decide the election… which is a GOOD thing because very liberal areas like the West and Northeast coastlines therefore can not control elections with their point of view and high population areas…it forces all States into play…
