can you look at the Missouri polls (presidential and Senate) and see if they have the same lopsided sampling?

Romney stickers? I'd rather not spend the money to replace slashed tires.

I couldn't agree more. I have run into more vicious, antisocial, conniving "progressives," who would not bat an eyelash to damage the vehicle of an opponent, than Republicans who get their blood pressure up in light of idiocy. More specifically, I have NEVER known a Conservative who would vandalize an opponent's property, but I have known liberal, progressive Democratics that would.

Romney will win MO handily. Akin will lose - as of now.

NC, along with many other Southern states, has a high D registration with high D crossovers to voting R.

The exit polls for NC showed 42D-31R-27I.

It still means that, yes, PPP is overestimating Obama’s changes by at least about 4 points in NC holding him to 2008 standards, and there’s no way Obama is going to beat his 2008 turnout...

I have actually seen plenty of anti obama stickers here in Florida and plenty of Pro Romney stickers

automatically add 4 points to the Republican side in any PPP poll, and you have a pretty accurate estimate .

It's never been shown that where a convention is held helps a particularly candidate win a state. It's silly they lead with that.

PPP went with 41 D, 37 R, 31 I which is essentially the party registration in FL; I wasn't able to quickly find out how each has voted in recent elections. Registration is far less important than turn out.

More troubling is they claim Obama's advantage may rest on his speechifying. There's a massive 26 point gap between Romney & Obama on "Who gives better speeches?" Are we that shallow that words in the absence of success across 4 yrs is enough? I hope not!

The important point, really, is Romney can win FL even based on Democrat polling firm PPP's numbers.

It has been published here before showing the latest Gallup party ID and it was pretty even in FL.

Let's say that the left leaning PPP is accurate. One thing they didn't poll was the bounce the empty chair had.

You gotta be concerned if you are the 0bama campaign when an empty chair gets more press exposure than 0bama.
