Romney is leading in every single poll.

Polls of likely voters are pretty damn accurate, so wake up and smell the coffee and don’t start the ball busting with me.

Anybody who thinks Scott Rasmussen publishes lying polls is delusional. He is the most honest man in the business and has the best methodology.

All the candidates and campaign managers base their plans and spending on reliable polls like Rasmussen. They wouldn’t base serious and costly decisions on polls if they were all no good.

I don’t like commie Obama OR Romney-—Willard is two-faced and untrustworthy-—but he IS the poll leader, probably based on name recognition alone.

I believe that he will top out at 25% but only if the other candidates expose his flip flops on abortion and homo marriage as well as his refusal to abandon global warming or apologize for Romneycare.

Romney is leading in the polls. Can't deny that. However, he is a manufactured candidate. NPR this morning was falling all over itself to declare that he was the big winner. They barely mentioned anyone else in the debate last night. As far as NPR was concerned, it was "The Mitt Romney Show".

So, he gets name recognition and he shows up well in polls.

But the thing is, very few people like him, they won't vote for him, and he isn't going to be president. Which is basically why NPR loves to promote him.

Mitt's support in those polls is only on name recognition. We're in a "get to know you" phase with these candidates.

Now is the time to show you can take on Obama rather than give Romney added attention. That time will come in the fall after a few months of these candidates testing their fundraising and organizational prowess. You want people to like and trust you before you get the long knives out for your primary opponents.
