The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows Mitt Romney attracting 46% of the vote, while President Obama earns 44%. Five percent (5%) prefer some other candidate, and five percent (5%) more are undecided.
I think the public has got a good look at Obama the Chicago thug these past few weeks. Since he has no record to run on the only thing left was his sweetness and cool image. That is in tatters now. He just sounds like a punk.
Really... what did they expect? after being an incompetant money-spending marxist moron, he thinks people are going to care that Romney worked longer at Bain Capital than he said?
That’s it? Thats the worst they can say about Romney? Is Obambi out of ammo already?
But wait all the Freepers who went on and on that Romney is losing because Obama launched one attack this week ....
According to Karl Rove, Romney is outspending Obama with ads in teh swing states. Just maybe you don’t all live in swing states and don’t realize that?
Never happen, I know. But I can dream.
There are signs of the "bar stool": Using the actual politically incorrect word in an ad - "LIES" and refusing to give Obama any more Income Tax Return Ammunition.
Those are good signs. I don't think Romney is going to make the McCain Mistake. At least I'm hopeful that he won't.
I do think the sheer chutzpah and hypocrisy of Reverend Wright’s Altar Boy questioning Romney’s character has astonished even the most casual observer. He just can’t get away with this crap the way he did last time.
I'm thinking Scott Walker will be content with actually doing some governing at this point.
And thus all this gnashing of teeth the past two weeks on our side was total crap. Romney has the money to spend...they like where they are in July...a President burning through his campaign money and still sitting in the mid-40s.
As always, I clarify my opinion that Romney was probably my last choice in the field, but he beat the rest. While I don’t have high confidence in him for his presidency, I do not think his campaign is lacking in effective leadership. If they saw they were falling in the polls, they would act accordingly. Instead, I believe they see a cornered Rat, and one that is blowing their only real potential Ace in the class warfare Bain attacks...in June and July. It is a desperation move, and one that is not seeing any real impact in the polling.
you nailed it on that one- Obama will never match the near 100% support of even blacks this time (yes, amazingly SOME blacks are not stupid sheeple and will vote for ANY black man)
So, he support was MAXED last election- no way will it reach that this time
ANd Romneys’s the only alternative
It would appear so...
He's burning through his funds quickly, and will need more cash soon. He will only get more cash if his donors think he's likely to win.
“.. and deliver a Palin/Gingrich/Paul nomination.”
Palin...Palin...Palin...everyone together! Palin..
Nevermind, we are stuck with a Dork or ass, I mean the Duke of Mass.

Or if they think the current line of attack has been effective. Remember Obama and Begala has said "this is what the campaign will be about." There is zero empirical evidence that these Bain Attacks have paid any dividends. How many of his brain dead followers are going to pony up the bucks for pursuing more of the same?
Yes, Palin. Who believes the most important thing is to stop Obama because she loves this country.
Obama will still carry overwhelming black support but it will be WAY down from last time.. 4 years of 15% or so unemployment among blacks will do that to you.
Speaking of not getting 100% black support:

What a great ad.
Barry tried to identify MR early. What seems to be happening is this. Barrys last positive trait is being diminished everyday. His so called “likeability factor”
Well... conditioning oneself to a low expectation will do funny things to you as well... as does skin color.
He’s spending money at the worst possible time...in July. It has to be sheer desperation, doing something for the sake of doing something. It wouldn’t matter if he spent 10 times that much, no one is listening now. TV watching is at its lowest point. It’s probably hurting him if anything because people absolutely hate political commercials and to be getting them in the summer probably just pisses off the people that are actually seeing them.
