Obama Still Winning Wisconsin in US Presidential Race: Romney-Ryan Close

Sportsbook.com has US President Barack Obama still leading in the odds to win the state of Wisconsin at 5/7 though the Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan GOP ticket is getting much closer at 11/10 Monday.

Ryan, a Wisconsin Congressman, may help to push the pendulum towards the Republican vote in this critical battleground state come Election Day.

"Paul talks about being from Janesville (Wisconsin), but he's an absolute product of Capitol Hill," said Democratic state Sen. Joe Erpenbach.

Not all state Democrats agree with that assessment.

"I've known Paul Ryan for a long time. He's a serious guy," said Wisconsin state Sen. Tim Cullen, a moderate Democrat who shares constituents with Ryan. "I think the American people need more serious people in Washington and fewer bomb-throwers."

Scott Angus, long time Editor of the Janesville Gazette noted: "The whole image of an all-American boy from an all-American city - it's all true," Angus said. "He really is as genuine as you're going to find."
