New polling data out from Pew Research Center finds President Obama with a double-digit lead over Mitt Romney nationally:
Currently, 51% say they support Obama or lean toward him, while 41% support or lean toward Romney. This is largely unchanged from earlier in July and consistent with polling over the course of this year. Across eight Pew Research Center surveys since January, Obama has led Romney by between four and 12 percentage points.
Obama holds only a four-point edge (48% to 44%) across 12 of this years key battleground states. While the data does not allow a state-by-state analysis, the overall balance of support in these closely contested states has remained level in recent months, with Obama slightly ahead, but neither candidate holding a significant advantage.

LOL!
Not called Pew for nothing...
Maybe they should just take their poll at the Democratic convention and be done with it.
What is going on? They have to know we look at internals. I mean are they this stupid.
This is a very interesting poll. By looking at the data extremely carefully, one can discern that Pew would vote for zer0.
Talk about bullsh!t poll. Trying to convince us to stay home
This November we will send this Obamanation to the trashheap of political assholes.
About 96 days from giving a damn. First Tuesday in November is the only poll that really matters.
I would not believe anything they say

Anybody know what happened to the Literary Digest after that? I haven't seen a copy for sale on a newsstand ... ever.
Romney is a thoroughly artificial and unlikeable person - just like Obama. And he’s about as liberal as Obama in anything that does not involve his personal finances. Notice his silence on the issues the rest of us are fighting for.
I keep hoping that something will happen to give us a different candidate between now and election day - but it won’t.
All things being equal, which they are, I think people will chose the devil they know over the devil they don’t.
‘Velcome to ze Ministry of Trwuth!’
‘All adults’
Really!? Do tell...
BTAIM, the sample is unrepresentative even of polls.
LOL!"
EXACTLY! That's just silly!
Rasmussen has Romney +2 among likely voters, Gallup has Zero +2 among registered voters. It's just unbelievable that they think the 'rats outnumber the Pubbies 2:1. Seriously, they don't.
yes they are, it’s the big lie strategy and they’re “all in”
“Talk about bullsh!t poll. Trying to convince us to stay home”
I’m thinking that things are looking so great for the Kenyan that the libtards have no reason to go to the polls :)
