This is a robo call poll not an actual poll .
These polls are useless in the age where no one has a landline anymore and cell phone blocking is the norm.

Who is Ras connecting with using robo calling ?
A very skewed demographic which is heavily poor and Dem.

I keep hearing the pundits and pollster guessing the turnout will be like 2008 or 2004 or something else?
Polls based on a guess are useless.

2012 is like nothing else thanks to cell phones

Actually the cell phone population is reportedly heavy democratic. Use of large cell phone calls is the reason the other pollsters are getting skewed democrat results.

Response rates to pollsters are at all time lows: around 9%. I question whether ANY pollsters, even Rasmussen, are getting an accurate picture with that low a response rate of what the electorate that shows up at the polls this year is actually going to do. It will be very interesting.

In that regard, I believe (actually hope) that Obama's support is a mile wide and an inch deep and based largely on the negative image of Romney that Obama and the media have created. If that is true, Romney still has time, especially in the debates, to reverse that image. Also, if your primary motivation for voting is a sense of disquiet or distrust regarding Romney are you as likely to vote as the millions of folks who desparately fear another four years of Obama?

I am actually more concerned about the Senate. If we lose Maine and hold Nevada and Massachusetts, we need four for a tie and five for a majority. Where will those seats come from? In order of probable liklihood: Nebraska, Montana, North Dakota, Virginia, Wisconsin, Missouri, Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania. Can it be done? Certainly. Might I humbly suggest that Ryan spend some time campaigning with the Republican Senate candidates in Virginia, Wisconsin, Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania?
