Romney is running as if he'd taken lessons from Bill Simon's failed campaign in California. Simon had a very successful run against the RINO Dick Riordan and then booted the whole thing once he had the nomination.

“Is that too late?

LUNTZ: Yes – in a simple answer, yes. That should have been done three or four months ago. “

What a pathetic joke. In Canada, federal election campaigns last a total of six weeks, from the time the writ is issued, until ballots are cast. IMHO, U.S. Presidential election campaigns last an insanely long time. Other than political junkies (such as FReepers, and their opposite numbers in the DUmp), who can pay attention for that long?

That's true Kaslin, where in 2008 ? saw lots and lots of Obama 2008 campaign signs,,, this year ? not so much, even in a very liberal pro-Obama area.
I see more Romney signs than Obama signs and in this area it says a lot.

“Republicans are more enthusiastic than Democrats about voting this year in general, and that enthusiasm has actually...grown since early August.”

Voter intensity for Republicans is much higher than for Democrats and this is being seen in absentee voter request numbers and early vote returns.Just the absentee requests In Ohio being tracked here by LS and LdSentinal at FR gives definite hope.

Even new voter registration in Florida is sharply DOWN among Democrats and sharply up among Republicans. Look at these numbers, according to a Chicago Tribune article.

2004/2008/2012
Reps 111586/95525/128039
Dems 158957/259894/11365 (11,365 is not a typo)

Even in CHICAGO, Obama’s hometown, there are 225,000 less people on the voting rolls than 2008 with only 4 more weeks to register. This is again according to a Chicago Tribune article. You know most of these voters will be Dems.

If voter intensity is on the Republicans’ side, than how can ANY of these MSM polls predicting a Dems turnout exceeding that of the “perfect storm” 2008 election be valid??

in FL the voter rolls are cleaned up and Ids are required !
Crist is not around to leave the polls open well after the legal dates !
I was wondering back then if Crist was a Dem
Plant after he let early voting go on illegally !
Fl is not going Obama in 2012 without the phony Acorn voters !

Me too. I am always the cheerleader for my non FR addicted friends who put too much stock into MSM reports. But I am a bit worried about today. It was just number after number flying at us. Hubby says that numbers change depending on who is writing the equation. But still....

cross-posting:

Yes, and the CBS news was pimping their biased poll tonight, and decided to try to highlight an undecided voter in Ohio.

Do you know who it was? You’ve guessed it before I even tell you, right?

A supposedly “moderate Republican” female karate instructor, who is leaning toward Obama because Romney hasn’t “moved toward the middle,” and doesn’t understand “regular people.”

WTF?? WTF?? WTF?? WTF??

Are you freaking kidding me? No wonder the country is doomed, if these people are the “undecided”.

And you know CBS went out of their way to find a (phony) Republican dissatisfied with Romney who reinforces the stereotypes about Romney that only the media agree with. The only people who think Mitt is “too extreme” are left-wing media-types.

There’s no way any REAL “Moderate Republican” could possibly think Romney’s too right-wing. Mitt is tailor-made for moderate Repubs and swing-voters.

Yet these scumbags highlight this woman to help Zero, of course.

The Fourth Estate are truly a bunch of bastards - I despise them. The Romney campaign might not want to complain about the media, but I WILL.

If Obama is re-elected its proof that America as we know it is finished. Our founding fathers will be rolling over in their graves. If people want to reject Capitalism and instead embrace Socialism its truly a sad day for our nation..but this is what the media wants, and this is what the Dems want, total power by controlling every aspect of our lives..This is what Obama said in 1998 in that Loyota University tape, and it turns out he was right, give enough people free goodies and they will vote for you.
Do I think Romney is a flawed candidate, absolutely..but if Obama is re-elected it won’t have anything to do with Romney sucking, it will have to do with people wanting to live under Socialist control. It wouldn’t matter who the GOP chose as their nominee, if this is what people want, America as we know it will never be the same again

I agree with you about Florida. The Chicago Tribune was griping about the voter ID restrictions causing the very sharp drop in Dem registrations. I truly believe another major factor is Republican enthusiasm and Democrats unenthused.

I truly don’t believe FL is going to be in the Obama column this year. I notice that Romney-Ryan don’t seem very panicked about it. I think they’ve seen the voter registration figures as well.

Its either going to be that Obama wins re-election or the media is doing this because they know that Obama will lose and they want a reason to scream Racism and call for violence in the streets because of the Voter ID law..I dont believe the Ohio poll about Obama being up 10 points its pure BS..as my 8 year old cousin asked me today “If Obama is winning how come he keeps campaigning in Ohio?” gee even an 8 year old can see that something doesn’t smell right

Yes, and also why was Obama campaigning in Wisconsin the other day? Clues, so many clues, that the underlying facts don’t match the wicked web of deception that the media is spinning about the state of the election.

Anyone who thinks these polls are BS should read this article (Romney himself discussing polls). Now you tell me if that sounds like guy that knows something you don't. It sounds like someone behind and hoping the debates save him. Not only that, but his pussy foot response to being lied about is as weak as any I've ever heard from a candidate.

In 2010 , the Obama media kept harping that if Dem Gov were elected in Fl and Ohio and Va then Obama would win. !
Now all these states have Repub Govs so that Dem
Talking point is shelved by the 2012 Obama media lie and spin .
The media dropped the voter purge impact spin too because it conflicts with these push poll lies and spin saying the Messiah is way ahead !

Now we know why most of Europe BANNED polling before any election .
