Yes. Popular vote is of no consequence nationally. That seems to be deadlocked though Obama seemingly has more avenues to electoral victory than Romney if the polls are accurate.

If the EVs are split 269-269, the House decides and Romney would win. But in that event the Vice-President is selected by the Senate, and the Democrats could elect Biden, and then we'd have President Romney an Vice-president Biden. If the Senate is tied 50-50, then Biden casts the deciding vote.
