The polls had him believing they'd beat Marxist Obama even after he took a dive in debates 2 and 3

Same setup here.

So much money will be lost betting on trump

Romney wasn't ahead in any of the polls. After his first debate, he narrowed Obama's lead, but he was consistently behind Obama in all of the major polls. The gap widened as the election got closer.

Polling in this case is completely different. Trump is now ahead in most of the swing states, and he is winning certain demographics that are a good indicator he could win this election, perhaps even convincingly - as long as he doesn't do something to screw it up. That was never the case for Romney.

OP: If it's not obvious to you by now, Romney was on the same team as Obama. Just a snake playing his part.

Should have been more clear. He said his internal polling.

trumps public polling has never been this good in 3 runs. He won and he lost. His share was under sampled both times previously. It is possible they are over sampling now but doubtful.

We are now in the final poll window where polling firms have to drop the truth.. or their best attempt at it

You nominated Romney, I voted for your preferred candidate, never again

Trying to determine what in the world that has to do with my post.

How do you you know Romney was his preferred candidate?

I know you like to play this little schtick that you're no longer a Republican, but it's pretty disingenuous to try to disavow association with the party when you consistently voted Republican in the Republican primaries for years prior to 2024.

Truth is, Romney was YOUR preferred candidate. You love you those milquetoast Republicans.

He's wasn't ahead in the polls. He knew he wasn't likely going to win, but claimed he thought that they would. He was just playing the part.
Sorta like McCain, he knew he he was running for second place.

If you will read the second post on this thread, you'll see I said "Romney wasn't ahead in any of the polls." So I am still trying to figure out your point.

I've seen no evidence whatsoever that Romney "thought he had it in the bag."

Again, you're comparing apples to oranges. Trump is in a MUCH better spot than Romney was, against a MUCH weaker candidate.

Romney and McCain were terrible candidates. They were never ahead in the polls.
