Yep, both....

Agree.....if i recall Mark Belling said the day before the election Walker was approx. +2 give or take.
Rasmussen is good but conservative. When the R’s are up, it is generally a definite win. When the R’s are down a few, it could go either way. When the R’s are down quite a few, its time for another poll:-).
There is no way this makes any sense as many have pointed out.
Fewer than one in ten (9 out of 100) will even talk to these pollsters.
If anyone can make a rational argument showing that these non-respondents are more liberal than conservative I would like to hear it. I am pretty sure that they are more likely to be conservatives who hate the media and pollsters.
This means the polls are automatically reflective of the Left more than the Right.
LOLOLOL!
Class vs crass...and the Mooch loses.
The substance of your post is fine, but to be clear, the Olympian said she had eaten a McDonald’s Egg McMuffin...not even a hamburger. She had eaten a breakfast EMc and for THAT, Michelle Obama criticized her and tried to intimidate her.
You are correct, and thanks for your input. I knew it was a McDonald’s something...my taste for one blinded my memory bank as I typed in the information!
Can you believe it?...an Egg McMuffin for her celebratory victory breakfast - oh the HORROR! To criticize that is even worse than if Michelle had complained about a hamburger. And it was NONE of Mrs. Busybody’s business, period.
A lot of liberal states (WI, NJ, MA, MI, hell even CA) have histories of electing GOP governors, to fix their own in-state mess, but then turning around and voting to inflict a leftist Prez on the rest of the country....’Cuz they feel it wont affect them locally.
After Madison garnering a 119 percent voter turnout for the Walker recall election, I believe it really comes down to stopping the fraud in Wisconsin. The liberal Dane county judge put a hold on Voter ID until AFTER this election and we all know why that stipulation was put on it. Bottom line, if fraud can be kept to a minimum, Romney may take it; otherwise, Obama wins.
The polls on the Walker recall election had them neck and neck and Walker went on to win by something like 8 percent. I don’t have the numbers exactly but the win was beyond the level where fraud on the part of Madison, Milwaukee and Racine could offset the win.
Yep, both....
That was my recollection as well, that the polls had it neck and neck, and then Walker won big. I would expect that if the polls are saying something similar for Romney, it means he will really do very well.
My feeling as well - hard to believe that a state that turned out LARGE for Walker has suddenly softened on the libs. I drove through Wisconsin shortly before the recall election and can tell you that never have I seen an electorate that was so involved. It seemed like one out of every two cars, lawns, etc., had signs and bumper stickers! I simply cannot believe that those same voters have either lost interest or decided that the extremely pro-union Obama is their candidate of choice. I believe the polls are as wrong this time around as they were at the time of the recall election. On the other hand, the libs are more prepared this time for the avalanche of Conservative voter turn-out and will up the ante in terms of fraud (expect a lot of busses to arrive from Chicago and to make two or three stops to vote) - there is too much at stake for them to come in unprepared this time around.
There were many Democrats who voted for Walker *only* because they did not like the way the recall process was being abused. These same Democrats will not be voting for Romney.
You say, “There were many Democrats who voted for Walker *only* because they did not like the way the recall process was being abused. These same Democrats will not be voting for Romney.”
This is a favorite Dem talking point and I don’t believe it for one minute. This is simply the MSM way of trying to convince voters that the tide isn’t turning against “the one” in the “must win” state of Wisconsin. You don’t turn out and vote for a candidate as “polarizing” as the libs claim Walker was simply because you feel that the “process is being abused.” People have dug their feet in and are taking sides - no one is voting against their own interest because they feel the “process” is being abused - there is too much at stake. . .
I’m no stranger to WI, FRiend. Romney will not get as many votes as Walker did. Sorry.
Yes they are. And you can find dreadful pics of romney just as you can with anyone. In fact, between the two, Michelle is gorgeous. Ann is pretty. But then she is married to Mitt so she loses just in taste in men.
When you are working to get out the vote, it does Not matter. The whole point is to get people to vote. It is none of our business for whom they are voting. Nor do we care.
