Obama campaign manager Jim Messina told reporters on Saturday that despite national tracking polls showing the president and Romney tied, Obama is still winning.
"In all the battleground states, we continue to see all our pathways there," he told the White House pool at an Obama fundraiser in Milwaukee. "We're either tied or in the lead in every battleground state 45 days out."
Messina, who drove from Chicago to Wisconsin to be with Obama on his first trip to a state that appears to have come into play when Paul Ryan was selected to be Romney's running mate, predicted that the national polling will get even closer, but that the president's lead will hold in key swing states.
Forget the tied polls that are heavily skewed to Obama, he’s winning.
We have a new Baghdad Bob.
Jim Messina looks like the kind of guy that you would want to keep your kids away from if you saw him at your local park
Yeah, Wisconsin , Colorado and Iowa have all come into play. But don’t worry we are winning.
“””We’re either tied or in the lead in every battleground state 45 days out.”””
As defined by the DemoMarxists here are some of those battleground states: California, Illinois, and New York,
Yep. This was basically called off last week. With the skewed polls showing Obama up, and Romney’s so called big gaffes. It was Obama in a romp. Except they forgot to tell the voters in the only two legit polls.
I bet they are seeing their base is not excited and it is going to be hard to get them out.. MSM knows this and pumpin gthese outrageous polls trying to depress republican vote. I keep hearing people who voted for Obama are not voting for him now. I was getting my oil changed today and talked to a guy whose mother in law is a big lib (Jimmy Carter Lib is what he called her) and she won’t be voting for Obama this time.
? Does this guy believe his own press?
Here the problem for Camp 0. YOU ARE THE INCUMBENT, you should be in the lead. That you are barely ahead in polls assuming a massively favorable turn out model for you is a really bad sign for your campaign.
If you are "winning" Jim why are you campaigning in a reliably Blue state instead of a swing state?
Denzel Washington a 2008 obama voter now says he is not sure who he will vote for
How many Denzels are out there?
These polling companies that have had these outrageous polls will be probably be changing them soon to be more in line with rassmussen and gallup (+2 or 3 D over R) in order to keep their credibility.. They know it and are trying to spin so it looks like they have some momentum b4 it happens
Last week it was Obama in a romp
Now its tide is turning to Obama
They are not consistent
Right. I know two neighbors who voted Obama but now will vote for Romney. Each of them never voted for a Dem for president until Obama. Keep in mind that many conservatives and GOP sat out in 08, especially in the Northeast (like NH). This time, many of those folks can’t wait to cast a ballot. Their base may be eager but their fringe is not motivated.
“we continue to see all our pathways there”
How unsubstantive can one speak.
I never knew how physically repulsive Jim Messina was until I saw the recent photo of him smiling like a pedophile for the creepy new “For All” campaign.
Don’t forget New Hampshire.
