I personally don't believe this poll - nor some of the other recent polls from Rasmussen. He's very conservative, and yes the race appears to be somewhat close, but it's NOT for several reasons.

Most hard-core conservatives are rarely taking time to be polled - because most are working hard to defeat Obama, or just working hard - period - to stay alive and financially viable and have little to NO time to give to pollsters.

I've been called some three dozen times - I hang up on all of them - no time for that stuff.

The only poll that COUNTS comes in early Nov - all else is worthless.

“I’ve been called some three dozen times - I hang up on all of them - no time for that stuff.”

I never answer polls either. I also have a good friend who is a conservative and she delights in deliberately lying to the pollsters
