Not on website yet. All the hand wringers need to chill out now please. Yes he had a bounce and it has dissipated but still the election is too close for comfort. Romney can be more aggressive which I think he is doing. Game on.

[KC_Conspirator]

I hope this is true.

[SoFloFreeper]

Obamugabe is a failure.

[mrs9x]

Actually, that means that Romney will probably be up a point or two by weeks end. As I recall, the Sunday sample moved Obama’s average up to 50%. When that number rolls off the sample, Obama’s numbers will go down again.

I hope this is true.

It was true yesterday. Apparently RCP gets the daily Raz update at least a few minutes before the official release at 6:30 AM ET.

It's worth noting that we have had a 2 point correction two days running on a poll that is averaged over 3 days. Fair chance that a Romney lead will show up tomorrow.

I know Rasmussen is supposed, I say “supposed” to be the most accurate of pollsters, but for this low life scum sucking illegitimate POTUS to have even a little ahead of Romney in percentage points...THAT JUST DON’T MAKE SENSE.

Are we that far gone? I don’t think so. There are better than 60% of Americans listed as conservative and more even among the so called moderates who can’t wait to vote on Nov. 6 to vote Obama OUT.

There is something wrong with Rasmussen’s polling.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Quick. Someone pull out some doom and gloom Republican pundit to say that “Romney has an uphill climb” or that “Romney has to pull an inside straight” to win. Or get some depressing conservative pundit to analyze the numbers and say how “devastating” they are to Romney because the race now turns on likeability and that is Obama’s strong suit. Republicans are their own worst enemies.

[mountainlion]

Obama is down about 8 points today. Wait until tomorrow.

There are better than 60% of Americans listed as conservative

Then why did we end up with a crappy candidate. The worst in the history of the Republican Party. I wonder about 60 percent when we end up with a liberal running on the Republican ticket.

Where are the handwringers? The bedwetters? The know-nothings?

PING THE FREETARDS!

We know that Gallup has been compromised (Axelrod and Holder’s DOJ) and logic dictates that the Chicago mob is not going to go to the trouble to lean on Gallup and not bother with Rasmussen. It must be the case that even with these polls weighted as heavily as possible for dems the thing is only a point different.

[ConservativeDude]

down to a one point lead over Romney now. Bounce is fading, fading fast!!!

[MrB]

There’s also a 2 point correction per day for the last 3 days in ‘bammers approval index and his SA numbers.

Funny that the strongly disapprove numbers stayed steady whilst the strongly approve numbers went way up for a while.

I guess those who have already seen through this charlatan aren’t changing their opinion, while those who approve went to strong approval for a while.

[KC_Conspirator]

Yes, they are still counting the weekend. Out of all the polls (even the fake ones) during and post dem convention, this one is the most concerning since Rasmussen is professional and has the best accuracy record.

down to a one point lead over Romney now. Bounce is fading, fading fast!!!

[liberlog]

With leaners,Romney is up by one in Rasmussen. Real Clear Politics has a post up by Pat Caddell claiming Romney’s campaign is the worst in his lifetime. I guess Pat should know....oh, wait. He ran Jimmy Carter’s campaign, the actual worst campaign in Caddell’s lifetime.

[The Klingon]

Please remember most people don’t follow the issues we care about at all. They are only now starting pay attention..their 1st concern is the wife, kids,job, bills etc. The adds, debate NS events will frame the problem for most Americans. Have faith, RR will win this in a walk.

[TonyInOhio]

Real Clear Politics has a post up by Pat Caddell claiming Romney’s campaign is the worst in his lifetime.

I respect Caddell's opinion, even if that one is overblown. However, I do think Romney is vulnerable, and he must get more aggressive to win - he's being far too nice and way too vague. A sharp, focused campaign (think Contract For America) would help him open up the lead he should be enjoying right now.

How the hell does Obama win on job creation? Romney needs to get off his @$$ and lead on this issue again.
