(Rasmussen) Summary of Party Affiliation (Sep 30: R-36.8; D-34.2; Other-29.0)

Right. Some confuse the party affiliation poll with the sample he uses.
The party id is to gauge the number of Repubs/Dems/Other in the country. To get the trend and snapshot.
Rasmussen used to then apply these statistics to his daily polling.
He no longer does. For some reason he uses an arbitrary D+3 sample. I guess he is predicting the electorate will be a mix between 2008 (D+7) and 2004 (E).
We crawled over broken glass in 2010 without Obama on the ballot - just to send a message. Yet with Obama actually on the ballot - and to send him more than a message, but his actual walking papers - we aren’t as excited? I doubt that.
This will be a landslide defeat for Obama.
