Thanks to the 2010 census and the fact that so many American have fled shit-hole blue states so they could actually find work, the electoral math has swung more in our favor.

Mitt Romney won't even have to win as many swing states as Bush did to win the election.

If Romney can win the McCain states, and regain the South by taking back states like Virginia, Florida, and North Carolina where Obama BARELY won even in the 2008 national landslide, then in order to win the election Romney only needs to win the following additional swing states that Obama won in 2008:

Ohio
Indiana
New Hampshire

Unlike Bush, Romney doesn't need Colorado. He doesn't need Nevada.

Romney can LOSE Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, and Iowa combined and still win. Bush couldn't.

Important factor to keep in mind. 2012 Electoral math is different than 2000, 2004, and 2008.
