Obama Leads Romney Among NASCAR Fans: Poll

Mitt Romney's recent slide in several polls, including those in the battleground states of Ohio, Virginia and Florida, is troubling enough for the GOP. But, now the Republican nominee appears to be trailing President Barack Obama among a traditionally conservative constituency: NASCAR fans.

Obama leads Romney 49 to 42 percent among NASCAR enthusiasts, according to a new Zogby poll by JZ Analytics.

As the liberal blog PoliticusUSA.com pointed out, Romney was booed at the Daytona 500 in February during a campaign trip ahead of Super Tuesday.

I'm pretty sure I saw a poll just yesterday of likely ACORN voters that are voting for Romney 58% vs Obama 42%. Can't remember the link, but I remember seeing it clearly, that was probably from Zogby too.

Next it will be “Obama has a wide lead among NRA Life Members!” I grew up on a ranch, I know BS when I see it. I’ll bet he doesn’t pull 30% of NASCAR fans

I used to take the Zogby polls all the time online and they always ask you if you are a NASCAR fan.

Isn’t Zogby a Muslim? Makes me wonder.

Idiots!!

I Double-Dog-Dare the MSM to broadcast live coverage of Obama speaking to a NASCAR crowd!

Obama would have to endure standing & putting his hand over his heart for the National Anthem and listen to a Christian invocation.

Poll also shows Obama ahead with the military by 20 points! Zogby has become the standard for anti-American, lying hatred.

No legal action at all, just playing spoil-sport by stoking civil unrest.

“Obama Leads Romney Among NASCAR Fans”

About as credible a poll as one declaring Romney leads Obama among black welfare crack addicts. Welcome to the twilight zone.

I recall a year or two ago when Michelle showed up at a NASCAR event and they booed the hell out of her. When is the last time a Democrat presidential candidate showed his face at a NASCAR event? Not gonna happen. They don’t need the evening news lead to be candidate booed out of racetrack.

And I suppose the Bamster leads Romney among Monster Truck fans too.

Yep, and Tractor Pullers and Professional Bull Riders!

The only way this could be true is if many people are like me...I have basically been turned off by NASCAR because of the leftwing direction it has gone....

Last year when they had Biden and Michelle do the “start your engine” call was about the last straw for me.

I still watch, very occasionally, but don’t follow it much anymore.

So maybe NASCAR fans are now liberal...who knows?

There was an earlier thread on this. Leaving Zogby and his putrid sauce aside for the moment, the “JZ Analytics” part was identified as an ONLINE poll. IOW, meaningless.

... to lay the groundwork for massive legal action after a Romney win.

More likely to lay groundwork for massive ILlegal rioting...
