The most accurate of them all. Agreed!

No one wants to see Obama pull out FLORIDA!

You are correct. Do not pay attention to any other poll other than Rasmussen. You watch - there will be a Rasmussen poll in October that shows Romney within 5 points of Borat Obama in Illinois. That is when you will know he’s toast.

I hope Ras is the most accurate... it`s the only good news I`ve seen today. The FoxNews and CNN polls show Obama with 9- and 7-point leads respectively.

Stupid-assed American voters. No understanding of anything of importance beyond their next tattoo design.

Fox polls are notoriously WAYYYY off but FOX is the ones defining the criteria . They were way off the 2010 midterms by saying the Dems were favored by 5 pts.

FOX intended to create this slanted poll on some purpose or maybe Old Lefty Shep oversees the news division cooking this crap up.

This ridiculous Fox poll has 17 % of Tea party voters for Obama. That tells us how twisted this statistical scam this poll is.

CNN is a joke and wont even release the sample information which says it all.

Wow, funny that you mention FL. I just drove by one of the old mcLame victory office in Broward (the most liberal place on earth) Co tonight. obama 2012 backwards and forward was doing a grand open of a campaign office in that space. Tons of traffic and very few honks for all of the sign waivers. I cannot repeat here what I yelled out my window.

Also worth noting that Fox has changed its polling organizations. Until March of this year, all polls for Fox News were conducted by Opinion Dynamics; now, there’s a new firm handling the polling. If this latest “poll” is an example of their work, I’m unimpressed...looks like they were cooking with the CBS/NYT/Quinipiac “special sauce.”

Scott, you don’t even want to know who gets water boarded, er...., I mean polled, by these other organizations! Take some comfort, or concern, with RASMUSSEN, whether it’s bad news or good.

Just because all the polls have been off by as much as 20% in the last 2 years is not reason we should stop believing them.

But Obizmo is ahead in the starting Electoral count - 247 vs 191. Which is what wins ...

My favorite Quinipiac poll was that great FL Gov race prediction on election day !
Yes , Gov Scott was predicted to LOSE by 6 pts on election day according to the Orlando Slimes cooked poll and headline.
Odd how off they were and no one has noticed !
QU is paid Dem party smear job-Push poll group.
