“Every veteran I speak to (including myself) is firmly in the Romney/Ryan camp. We veterans may not be crazy about Romney but we understand the danger of a second Obama administration.”
I don’t know if you live in Boston or any of the other Democrat large cities in MA, but here in Democrat Chicago, Cook County, IL most vets vote reliably for Democrats. The Democrats count on that and ensure that happens by making certain IL Gov. Pat Quinn is always ‘seen’ talking about some ‘positive’ programs helping IL vets, (whether it is nothing more than vowing to do something for vets. The Democrats have put Democrat Tammy Duckworth, (double amputee Iraq War vet) up against a conservative Joe Walsh, who is losing in the polls.
Myself and many other IL conservatives that are veterans will vote for Romney, but we are outnumbered here in Cook County big time.

Quinn an attack dog as Duckworth talks up Obama and military
September 05, 2012|By Rick Pearson, Chicago Tribune reporter
My sister lives in Lancaster County, which voted over 65% Republican in 2010 mid-terms. Her husband who owns a furniture leasing company travels the state frequently and reports virtually ZERO support for Obama, except for the inner city Philly & Erie communities. Pennsylvania has had enough of this clown... Obama is poison and most are embarrassed to bring up his name.
The Libtards are in full lie assault mode for their Messiah.
As you know the media is carrying the water for Obama as it pertains to veterans. And most veterans either do not want to or do not have time, or do not care to seek alternative media truth about Obama and how he hates the military.
Sadly, current stories like these and dozens of others during this Obama campaign bombardment of propaganda published by the Chicago metro media are mostly what vets know about Obama”

Illinois eases professional licensing for military families
By Jason Keyser / Associated Press Posted on June 26, 2012
CHICAGO (AP) — Michelle Obama got a boost Tuesday from her home state of Illinois in her campaign to make it easier for military spouses to advance their own careers amid the frequent moves that come with life in a military family.

Remember 2004?
I have not seen one single Obama lawn sign yet, and Romney signs are starting to spring up. In fact, the only Obama sign I have seen read...
OBAMA SUCKS
Make no mistake Laz, I WILL NOT STAY HOME! Love your spirit and agree that now is not the time for doom and gloom. If there is too much time on people’s hands to dwell on losing, they need to put blinders on and volunteer in the campaign. Or just keep it to themselves and let the rest of us do the cheerleading. I will worry about what to do on Nov. 7th if we lose. Plan B is being formulated as I go.
I dunno why people are surprised. PA is as blue as it gets. Just as bad as CA or MA.
How do they know that is correct? Just because he used to attend (for pragmatic reasons) services in a Black Liberation Theology church which had some trappings of Protesantism, and because he has, a few times since becoming President, attended a Protestant service, doesn't tell us what his beliefs really are.
more numbers to ignore
No.
Was this poll just done in Philly or is it statewide?
That being said, I believe PA is fools gold to the GOP. It always looks like a state the GOP can pick up and then goes blue. It will never go red in a Presidential election again. It’s not deep blue, but still blue enough. Don’t get me wrong. There are a lot of good Christian, conservative folks in PA. But they always get canceled out by 80% plus RAT votes in Philadelphia and 55% plus RAT vote in Pittsburgh .
GWB came within 2.5% in 2004 and that is about the best we can do there . Daddy Bush won PA in 1988 by a narrow margin and that was the last time.
“Much as we hated the Dem convention, Obama got a sizable bounce out of it. It worked for them. It swayed Americans in Obama’s favor. The polling numbers prove it and most political analysts/commentators on our side have even conceded that their prime time combo of Moochelle, Clinton and Obama dramatically helped their cause.”
1) The bounce is gone in just a weeks time.
2)While press did rave about Moochelle and Bubba’s speech, they were very critical (or disappointed if you are PMSNBC) with 0bama’s speech.
The bounce 0bama got strictly came from Clinton....but it’s over now.
Hey Hillary is that you Mitt?
Hey Mitt, is that you Hillary?
Hey Mitt, is that you George Bush on steroids?
HillaryGeorgeBushRomney vs. Undocummented Coffee Server.
Phew....
The media is making obama look like beating him would be impossible.. So that when he loses by a land slide they can scream,”How can this happen? The republicans must have cheated! They rigged the election!” Then the much wanted race war will begin.
It’s a scenario that becomes more probable as each day goes by.
This Poll is SHEER BULL$HIT.
Bullcrap.
Pennsylvania elected a Republican governor and senator in 2010, and Republicans control both houses of the state legislature.
Now why don't you try to explain how that is anything like California or Massachusetts?
MA/CA have had leftist Republicans in power as well recently. I don’t think PA will ever vote GOP for president again in our lifetimes.
Nice try. No sale.
This looks more like it was conducted in the Philly metro area - not the entire state of Pennsylvania.
