Your challenge, should you accept it, is for the 2012 US election to result in a Republican President Mitt Romney, a Republican House and a Republican Senate. At least a PoD after January 20, 2009 for this challenge. What would be needed for Romney to win? Could he win with a PoD in the campaign, or was Obama fundamentally always going to win without changes outside of the campaign? Also keep in mind that the tipping point state Colorado went for Obama by 5.37%, more than his 3.9% nationwide victory, so Romney would need about a 2.75% or 3% swing to him from Obama to win. If changes in the fundamentals, how could this be done? Say the economy is worse-how does this occur? What do you think? How could Republicans win the Senate, requiring a 3% uniform swing to them from the Democrats? What would be the effects? Go ahead!
