Romney leads Obama in fisrt national Gallup Poll
The Hill ^ | 4/16/2012 | Jonathon Easily

Posted on 04/16/2012 12:37:34 PM PDT by GlockThe Vote

Romney took 47 percent support from surveyed registered voters, while Obama took 45 in a poll conducted between April 11 and April 15. Romney's edge though is within the poll's three point margin of error.

Independents tipped the scale in favor of Romney, going for the former Massachusetts governor 45 percent to 39.

The Gallup poll backs up a Rasmussen poll from last week that at the time looked like an outlier. The Rasmussen poll showed Obama and Romney tied at 45 percent, but was the first to show such a tight national race after a number of polls in March showed the president stretching his lead to double digits.

Absent a third party - Romney needs to get all the McCain voters, plus about 3% more and he wins over the ghetto tyrant.

I have not crunched the numbers but if you are right--McCain plus 3%, then Romney is a lock. 2012 Romney is no conservative but he is a stronger candidate than 2008 McCain was.

I don’t believe he will be primarried unless he is far, far worse than Obama btw I would be up for it.

I PRAY that Romney is NOT President. Now that is something I truly believe. Americans are not that stupid I hope.

The best thing Romney can do for this country
is to resign from the race.





Thank you for saying it so clearly! This message needs to be repeated often, like a good dose of medicine for addled brains! Snap out of it, FReepers!

You are not fooling anyone but yourself with that talk!

McCain had Sarah Palin.

No matter who (R)Money chooses for a running mate, he won’t get a single solitary conservative (Tea Party) voter, which is the very large voting bloc that Sarah Palin handed to McCain last election.

Even with the Sarah bloc McCain couldn’t beat Obama - because McCain, like (R)Money, was just Obama-lite. Why would Dems and Indies vote for Obama-lite when they can have the real thing? Obama will sway them with his message of, “I just need four more years to give you the change you hoped for when you elected me the first term.”

Wake up, FReeper!

You don’t understand. This may be the lowest turnout for a presidential election in our generation. Obama’s base is fired up. The know they are inches away from a complete takeover. Romney (At Least He’s Not Obama) fires up no one.
