The left-leaning Public Policy Polling does regular weekly polling for the extreme left-leaning Daily Kos and SEIU, and the numbers this morning have probably stopped the hearts of leftists everywhere. Nationally, the poll shows Romney up four, 50-46%. In the swing states, the news is just as bad with Romney up three, 50-47%.
In this particular poll, the movement towards Romney nationally is a net gain of two points. In the swing states, Romney overcame a four-point deficit. Two weeks ago he was losing to Obama, 50-46%. That's a seven-point shift.
Daily Kos released the daily numbers in this three-day rolling poll. Friday and Saturday averaged out to a tie, but on Sunday, Romney walloped Obama by twelve points -- 55-43%. Obviously, that's a fluke, but the question is, how much of one? Was there a real momentum shift of some kind? Daily Kos claims that nothing in the news can account for this, but that's debatable.

STUNNING.
Romney is up in a Daily Kos poll? Really?
Are they still doctoring the polls, to create the impression that Obama is more popular than he really is? Or are they now reporting more honest data, so that they won’t be so far off of the results on election day?
Can I relax yet?
I wonder how the Daily Kos people feel about this.
They’re slashing their wrists over this.
Heehee.
The Sunday poll would be most valid because everyone’s home watching their local NFL team. Friday and Saturday not so much and so they have to fudge the numbers to try to create a valid sample. That’s when the unbalanced D versus R sampling takes place.
So of the three days polled, Sunday would be the most accurate.
No! Not until Nov. 7th and everyone has voted!!
If you want to ask them, approach with caution...they are all holding sharp objects.
I look forward to the day the Obama family leaves our White House for the last time, and I want to see their tears.

This one’s easy.
They placed Romney up in the polls so they can take him down after the town hall tonight.
There's a counter-argument that Sunday would be biased in favor of Democrats because Republican-leaning voters are in church all morning.
No.
I have a fairly safe prediction. No matter what happens at the debate tonight, the MSM will immediately hail Obama’s tremendous comeback performance and attempt to demonize Romney for being untruthful, vague and/or rude.
After the last debate, the MSM and the rest of the left wing could not stifle their shock, horror and deep disappointment at Obama. It was like a gag reflex. They simply could not hold back their overpowering urge to vomit.
Now they have had time to reflect and have become even more shocked and horrified to see Romney shoot ahead of Obama in all of the polls. The MSM and the rest of the far left wing fringe have way too much emotionally and financially invested in Obama to simply cut him loose now. They will do whatever it takes from now until the election to prop Obama back up.
If they do manage to prop Obama up long enough to get him re-elected, then they will start tearing into him like a pack of wild dogs. The honeymoon is definitely over.
Maybe they’re lying to lower expectations for the ‘debate’ tonight. Why would we trust them or care what they have to say?
No. None of us can relax until after 8 PM on election night. These next few weeks will be an emotional roller coaster as we try to oust the Marxist. Barry isn't going to go quietly.
These debates are all about preparation. I have the feeling you’re going to see O prepared for the “up the middle” and Romney is going to run sweep after sweep. While it’s probably impossible to exceed the disaster that Zero had in Debate 1, this will come close and the media won’t be able to cover.
“And in other news this morning...hardware stores across the nation are reporting a run on Duct Tape, which is being used to stop heads from exploding...”

They are also scaring their base in an attempt to motivate them. It is indicative of a ratcheting up of the panic factor of the Wrong.
