I think that there is a growing perception in America that things are improving but slowly. It's a bummer because the election has probably come a bit too soon for Obama, the unemployment rate is falling a bit too close to the election to have a big effect. Romney could well reap the benefits of an improving economy in the same way Obama got the bill for the banking bailouts.

Well put, My home state will no doubt go for Mitt. Not sure if Obama will be a lame duck anyway If the Senate & the House end up with the republicans
