Internals are ridiculous

Dems 47%

Repubs 38%

Also, the Indies went from 37% approve /57% disapprove just three weeks ago, to 48%/40% this month

Really? They think we're that dumb? His net approval went from -20% to +8%... a swing of 28% in 3 weeks. Wow, how pathetic

Just when RealClearPolitics was going to show Obama losing in aggregate, Reuters to the rescue. These libs take turns throwing flawed polls into the mix to prop up the “one”. NYTimes, AP, NBCNews.

Gallup daily poll shows Romney maintaining a 3 point lead, Ras maintaining a 5 point lead.

Sure. Obumbu is running away with it. The whole country is in love with the guy, just like in 2008. If anything, they feel more strongly now than the did then.

Heh heh.

The poll is of REGISTERED voters, not likely voters.

I means nothing.

This is fantastic, I hope there are more just like it and everyone thinks O’s the man! Even fewer than I think will turn out, whereas you won't be able to keep those against away. The way I see it, it all works in our favor.

These polls don’t mean jack since both candidates are as Progressive as the eye can see. Either choice leads America in a regressive direction backward.

Gallop had Romney over Obama yesterday. This is going to happen with every poll a another one will come out saying the opposite.

Yesterdays vote was the only poll that matters and O lost big.

Today’s Gallup shows Romney maintaining his 3 point lead. Registered voters... So if/when they switch to likely voters, it should mirror Rasmussen’s 5 point Romney lead.

Zippy is doing so well that Soros has to dump a few million to prop him up.

Bull$XXX.

Reuters, like ABC, NBC, CNN, etc, is in the bag for Obama.

Rassmussen has Romney leading Obama by 49% to 44%.

I would give as much credence to a Reuters Poll as I would to one of their “news” articles - that is, NONE.

Any Poll showing Obama at or above 45% is flat out lying, or completely bad math.

The guy is looking at a McGovern/Mondale/Carter type disaster, and short of a major political shift between now and election day, he is going to lose, and lose by a margin no sitting president in the modern age has lost by in a 2 person race.

Low 40s is the BEST this guy can possibly pull off.
