The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows Mitt Romney attracting support from 47% of voters nationwide, while President Obama earns 46% of the vote. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided.
This is the first time in a week that Romney has held even a single-point advantage. See daily tracking history. Romney is now supported by 18% of white Democrats.

“But...but...what about the bounce? Oh, don’t worry, once Romney’s missteps on Libya are factored in, obama will be back on top by six!”
Riiiiiight.....
I'll bet there are at least 5-10% more who will pull the lever for Romney, but don't want to tell anyone, i.e. there fellow RAT union members or libtards.
This is an encouraging poll. Now to just see some more swing states swing to Romney.
Romney didn’t “misstep”, no matter how the media is attempting to portray his statement.
He told the truth about 0bama and his administration.
This, to a leftist, is a grievous outrage.

That is a good feel good position to be in but the real question becomes who is winning in the 8 to 12 swing states? Those swing states will determine the next president.
how accurate is this poll? every poll I see shows something different...
and that’s with a whole lot of us Right Wingers continuing to lie to pollsters (for entertainment purposes only)
How can this be, Peggy Noonan and all the chicken littles said all hope was lost. OMG what will they cry about now?
Not that this means anything this time around but as I recall, Rasmussen was the most accurate pollster in 2008.
Surprise, Surprise, the first 3 day poll of the week that doesn’t include WEEKEND numbers, and Obama is back down... Shocking I say.. shocking...
The only numbers in any 3 day worth mentioning are going to be thursday, friday, and saturday release numbers, they are the only ones that don’t contain weekend polling in them.
Polls still aren’t remotely capturing what’s on the ground, Obama has an absolute max support of 42-43% on his best day. Election day I really think the fool will be lucky to see 40% of the vote.
Rasmussen graded most accurate in 2008.
Right on. When the entire left is lockstep united in its diagnosis, you can be sure the diagnosis is simple: it is 180 degrees opposite of what they just said.
Same with the Eastwood speech, incidentally.....
(And, apparently, the same with the great obama/Clinton bounce! More on that in a week or so, though!)
The thrill is gone.
I got a call from one last night
"Hi, mister Dubya? I'm sorry to bother you, my name is blah blah blah and I'm calling on behalf of the Obama Campaign".
Me: "Hahahahaha!! Yeah, I'm sorry you bothered me too." (slams phone down)
Do this this poll reflect the events in the ME ?
Saturday’s may be more meaningful
“Do this this poll reflect the events in the ME ?
Saturdays may be more meaningful”
True... and be prepared for a short-term bump for Obama from a “rally-to-the-flag” effect of the events in Egypt and Libya. It’s a natural response, regardless of who’s in the White House.
So true. I agree with Dick Morris - Romney is going to win in a landslide and the left knows it.
