Amazing.

We are already lost as a country if almost 50% of the population is mentally deficient enough to want 4 more years of that jacka$$.

I was thinking the same thing. I am amazed that with all the turmoil in the world, $4 gas, and prices of everything else going through the roof, he’d be in the 30’s for approval.

You have to understand that the media is full bore defending and covering up for his epic fails.

This is really good news, as it demonstrates that the MSM hysteria over the Romney foreign policy statement is being completely repudiated by the American people.

“We are already lost as a country if almost 50% of the population is mentally deficient enough to want 4 more years of that jacka$$.”

Agreed. Fat, lazy, and stupid is no way to go through life. But there you have it.

This includes Friday, Saturday and Sunday polling -- which typically undercounts conservatives, libertarians and Republicans.

It was a beautiful September weekend here at the Jersey shore. I was away from the house with the cell phone "off" for much of it. I couldn't have been polled if anyone wanted to poll me.

The DNC "bounce" is still fading; my guess is that Zero's "real" approval is around minus-20. Let's see where Romney is when his approval gets back to that level.

Problem is.. Too many "Americans" don't care a whit about what happens with the country so long as they get their goverment money, and large percentages still worship the ground Obama sashays on.

It occurs to me that if our country was predominately black and he had a black opponent Barack would probably be a laughing stock at this point.

Ah. The immortal Dean Wormer. Long may he remain a part of our culture.

Folks, we are paying far too much attention to these polls. The response rate is so low these days that the ones who actually answer the questions are not really representative of the general populace and the likely voters. Keep your head up and your powder dry. Talk, contribute, write, and work like your future depends on it.

Because it does.

In this election, like never in any other election,
polls are to polling what individual quail are to a startled flock.

Remember how Secretariat just used to love hanging back, then destroyed the field completely by the end of his run? That’s Romney.
