What states will decide the election?

Right now people want to believe that the election will be decided by 8 or 10 states.  The Romney campaign is doing its best to expand the number of states that Obama will have to play in.  For instance, the states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Iowa and Indiana all went for Obama last time and this time Romney is putting a little time and money in these states to make Obama expand the number of states he must defend.   Can Romney win any of them?  If he does it is game over for the President.  It looks like the President is running a Western strategy but that only works if he carries the states in the East that he carried last time.  The Presidential election is a chess like game with 50 different state elections.  Right now Romney has made an aggressive move.  Obama countered with a move on immigration that only works if he carries the East.  It will be a real interesting election season.  Make sure you have lots of Beer and popcorn!
