And yet the liberal polls indicate that Obama is up in most of the battleground states.

Are they still manipulating the polls, to create the impression that Obama
Is more popular than he really is???

Of course, thats the strategy the libs are going with. Hey according to the AP Obama has already won don’t ya know..the truth is Obama is the one that is trailing, but they are hoping that if enough people believe the BS polls that Romney voters will stay home

But, but, but... even Karl Rover has Obama winning Ohio and almost every other state.
The lesson here is that even if you have 10 good polls. If the other 90 have +12 Dems then your average will be way off. Republicans should just throw out any poll that has more than a +3 Dem advantage. They’re BS.

Been seeing it so often I assumed it said Obama was ahead. Wow.

This race is close, that’s for sure. Not exactly who is really ahead....honestly think it’s Obama ahead by maybe 2 right now but this poll is interesting, and it’s an extremely respected pollster so who knows.

If the final Tarrance Group/Battleground poll says we are going to win - we will win. If they say we are going to lose - we will lose. They have an incredible track record: Photobucket

Polls with D+3 or less are at least respectable. I think the real number is probably D+1.5-2 or so right now and may end up being even less for Dems IF Romney can excite people with the debate.

Rove map is pure crap .
Its a collection of slanted media polls averaged together .
Its useless garbage.

Today the ABC Wash Compost poll of numerous swing states consisted of 161 voters !!
I been to bigger family reunions !

YES , that is how desperate the Obama media has gotten a headline screaming Obama ahead based on 161 people in multiple states !! the real poll data must be awful for the messiah!

Thanks for posting.

Here are some of the disgusting findings from this poll.

In states where the unemployment is 10% or higher (as of July), Obamugabe is winning by 18%...in other words, the states suffering the most under Obamugabe’s War on Prosperity support him the most. Fools.

Men go for Romney even if they are unemployed. Employed men support him over the Kenyan commie 53-44. But even men unemployed support Romney 48-45.

Women, sadly, support the Clown 44-53...but unemployed women, those who have NO JOB, support him 40-55. Pathetic.

Laughable: 18% of those who describe themselves as “very conservative” are voting for Obamugabe. These must be the folks who don’t know what “oonservative” or “very” means.

Bigger laugh: 15% of those who identify “strongly” with the Tea Party are voting for Obamugabe.

Married women support Romney 54-42.
Single women support AssClown 12-85.
100% of the single mothers surveyed support Obamugabe.

Sad: Non-white “conservative Christians” support the pro-abortion, pro-sodomite Occupier 37% to 59%.

Don’t like the generic congressional ballot with this poll....has it as D+2.

But, we have often won with that level as well.

New here guys, but I’ve been reading your site since 08. On my 2 kids, I SWEAR I’m NOT A TROLL!! I’m confused about this poll though......I went to the site and the only thing I could gather from the charts was a 49/47 vote preference for O. WHere is the 50/46 stat? What page?

God Bless

I was hoping things might get better closer to the election the polling companies change methods about now.

Re 2000 - I don’t think any pollsters picked up the last minute undecided swing to Gore as a result of the Bush DUI revelation.

The most recent battleground polls of the swing states gave Obama an 11 point lead. They polled just 160 people from each sate with less than a 9% response rate meaning that only 9% answered the poll and 91% hung up. On top of that the margin of error was 8% and the democrat over sampling was 11%. I heard this on Hugh Hewitt. He was laughing senseless at how stupid this poll was not resembling anything close to reality

I see POLITICO Battleground States with Romney up 49 to 47. But isn’t that a small sample? Only 270 polled.

I am guessing that the “projected” numbers there are more likely the last poll they took before the election rather than the last poll they took in September.

Perhaps as a political consultant for Republicans, Rove is trashing his competition who got the Romney contract?

Sorry man,......it was late last night and I just glanced at the headline. I caught my mistake after replying to you but couldn’t erase the comment. This poll made my day though. Thanks for posting it.
