This is polling from Fri-Sun. Good news for Romney.

Obama didn’t get his normal weekend bounce.

$4 gas will do that.

TheBlaze has a graph showing clearly how over sampled Dems are in most polls. Seems like only Ras is balanced

That's a bit disconcerting, because it blunts the hope the undecideds gravitate to the challenger.

all in all, not bad Rasmussen numbers today.

Romney up two nationally.

Behind - but only by one in VA and OH - and by two in FL. But up in MO and up big in NC.

Basically, friends, here is what it boils down to. We need two points in OH/VA and three in FL. Then it’s game over.

If that happens, obama loses and Romney wins (and probably wins in a landslide, strangely). If he doesn’t, then, he will lose narrowly - by only a point or two in each of these swing states.

Personally, I think and hope that Romney will surge past obama in these states. He doesn’t have far to go. It can be done.

Only about 10 states will decide the election so those are the polls he should be showing. FLA, OH, WI, etc.

Obama often gets a slight bounce on the weekend for whatever reason.

Exactly. I honestly think those undecideds are all Romney voters.

They are just holding out for fear of race card. Once in the booth and curtain closed, there will be no echos of race baiting.

I wonder why Clinton said Obama’s going to build the economy from the ground up

Seems about right to me. Will take it. Gallup should continue drifting to Romney today.

0bama said that from the beginning,
that he was going to lay a new foundation for the economy.

Could it be... communism? /church lady

Anyway, in order to lay a new foundation, what do you have to do with the previous foundation... hmmmm?

RE :”I wonder why Clinton said Obama’s going to build the economy from the ground up”

He was saying that Obama inherited the worse economy is US history and no human being who ever lived could have fixed it all in only four years, regardless Obama’s promises to the contrary.

At least Obama’s Middle East policy are going as planned. Hillary 2016 !

Bingo, but know the masochists here ion FR want to keep try to convince us the worlds flat and that national polls mean something. I mean they meant something for Al Gore right? There was an excellent analysis here on FR that with correctly weighted polls with splitting the difference e between 2008 and 2010 part affiliation models Romney s clobbering Obongo. The Obnongo supporters and trolls here sound as delusional as we did in 2008. Stick a fork in MN it’s over and has been since November 2010. Gas $4.00 a gallon and rising, economy in the dumper, Mideast ablaze, the czars, the countless new regulations, the palatable negativity out there about the country’s future. Yea Obongo has got it in the bag…/snark. Some of you need to turn off the news and stop getting your panties in a knot about every utterance that comes out through the MSM. Baring Romney calling Obongo the ‘N’ word on an open mic or we experience a 6 week economic miracle Obama is done and has been done. Yea I know 48% people are on government aid…blah, blah, lies and more lies to dispirit you. Of that 48% more than half are on SS, so that’s a false stat and a meme meant to discourage you the country is finished. Most of the viable voting public, a plurality that matters ,still cares about the future of the country. They bought the horsesh*t in 2008 but only a delusional Occupy Wall street type or a halfwit would think Obama will do as well or better than 2008. You have to be a dumb as a post to believe that.

Romney is surging in Northern VA. I was out at a fair this weekend and marched in a parade. There were only 12 Obozo supporters that marched in the parade compared to 200+ for Romney/Ryan and the rest of the GOP. There were thousands of people there and the GOP booth was mobbed. We gave away all the signs and bumper stickers and had to send people to the campaign HQ to get the materials. Signed up lots of volunteers and requests for billboards.

The Obozo faction had very few supporters stop by and it was fun to see how dejected they were. So much for the media propaganda.
