As long as the poll is favorable to Obama it is good. When the poll is not favorable not good. obama’s solution just move the goal post and the polls will now be favorable Or Obama will ask to borrow Michelle’s Polish Remover - he figures he can remove the poll results with polish remover.See that is what they call polls is Chicago - Pollish.

Yup, they brazenly committed fraud in this year's election.

I expect a Democrat wave in 2014.
