Sandy completely stopped Mitt’s momentum
Lemmee get this straight, Obama is slipping in the national polls, until a storm hits the East coast. The president flies to the East coast, shakes a few hands and gives away water, food and gas to people who were gonna vote for him anyway and all of a sudden, we can forget about 4 years of declining employment, 4 years of socialist government by fiat, an Ambassador slain on foreign soil while the administration preens before potential voters, etc., etc.
NO. I watched all of the Meet The Press, Face the Nation Democratic Spin Doctors. And YES. This is what they say too.
But I don’t formulate my opinions based upon what the media decides I need to formulate my opinions on.
A storm on the East coast has changed NOTHING...
You realize that people on both sides think Sandy probably helped Obama. The only question is how much. What was a disaster for people in the northeast was a boon for Hussein. You can dispute that all you'd like, but the national polls were moving to Romney (he was even up 2-4 in Rasmussen) and now they are back to tied. It's not that the hurricane was decisive, but in a super close election is just gave Obama a chance to be presidential and sway some last minute undecideds. Ofcourse people like us here on FR weren't fooled, but we are not undecideds either.
