The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows Mitt Romney attracting 48% of the vote, while President Obama earns support from 44%. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided.
Romneys has lead by four or five points for three consecutive days. Thats the largest advantage enjoyed by either candidate in over a month. As with any such change in the race, it remains to be seen whether it marks a lasting shift or is merely statistical noise. See tracking history.

OK, I’ll be the idiot.
What is an intensity index?
Intensity index = %strongly approve - %strongly disapprove.
The Moron-in-Chief appears to be “cemented” at 44%. When you add voter turnout intensity, I would not be shocked to see a final vote this November that looked something like 54-45 or 54.5-44 Romney.
I want to see Obama totally humiliated on Election Day.
....and visibly shaken, and publicly disgraced, last seen chain smoking and kicking doors and trash cans around in the alley.
What the “big picture” of this poll, and I’m sure a continuing series of ongoing polls indicates is that Obama has suffered
a lot of attrition among new or old voters who were “excited” by his prospects the first time around, the reasons for this being obvious. “Interested” voters, “registered” voters are showing the corresponding “enthusiasm” for Romney’s candidacy, not exactly on the same level that the ‘08 voters for Obama shown (it doesn’t NEED to happen that way)-—it’s just that
Obama has lost all that enthusiasm, confidence and excitement among large sectors of the people who voted for him the first time. SOME of these people will STILL vote for him, but “without” enthusiam ( this implies that they will vote for him because their perception of Romney has been worked on to the degree that they’ve come to see him as “dangerous”), and some will just hang back and not vote for anyone, merely because they aren’t about to subject themselves to the same kind of delusionary “hopefullness” that Obama engendered the first time around.
Nope, write in and third party candidates will pull in 3%. Hopefully the Libertarian won't screw this up.
Unless a Perot type jumps in and lets Obama win with 44%

As for Senate races, there is a lot at stake where you have a few incumbents who are popular (Casey) or long-time or, as in OH, a very unpopular D in Brown but a pretty unknown R in Josh Mandel. Over the campaign, Mandel will be more known by the voters and I don't see how he fails to catch Brown who is stuck in the low 40s.
I want to see Obama totally humiliated on Election Day.
And he should be arrested on January 21st.
I certainly did not vote for Obama and I pretty well had him pegged as the Marxist that he is when the election rolled around in 2008.
In trying to see some type of silver lining in the ominous cloud of his election, I at least hoped that his election would move us past finding and screaming about the racial element of EVERY STINKING ISSUE THAT COMES ALONG.
Sadly, Obama intentionally made things far, far worse. Most blacks just seem to refuse to move along, prodded along by their “leaders”. I have now been convinced that most blacks will accept NOTHING to move beyond race. We have all but given our country away trying. So in my mind, it is time to end the effort and start reversing the endless programs, preferences and set-asides put in place ostensibly to right past wrongs. If nothing will ever measure up, why maintain the effort? They have squandered the patient spirit of compassion and honorable intent in this man, and likely among millions of others. As a result, my gut reaction anymore to one crying racism has come to be contempt. For a long, long time that was not the case. With much sadness, I have turned to another page. I doubt anyone will be worse off for it.
Along with Holder, Jarret, and Axelrod. Let’s throw in most of the Congresscritters too.
