Mitt Romney's national lead over President Obama grew even more Thursday, with the latest Gallup survey showing the Republican nominee up 7 points -- as polling in the battlegrounds indicates the electoral map may be shifting in Romney's favor.
In a significant development, the RealClearPolitics electoral map, which offers predictions of which states favor which candidates, for the first time is showing Romney ahead in terms of electoral votes he is likely to win on Nov. 6.
Obama had a big advantage over Romney for months in those projections. But in the past few weeks, states thought to favor Obama like New Hampshire and Pennsylvania were moved into the "toss-up" column. Meanwhile, RCP just moved North Carolina from "toss up" to "leans Romney." The projections -- while subject to change any time of any day -- show Romney with a likely 206 electoral votes and Obama with 201. That leaves another 131 electoral votes up for grabs in the battlegrounds.

Hehehehe....
Chrissie will be on suicide watch very soon!...
Obama doesn’t need to worry. He is winning Intrade.
They are encouraging, but we are aware that the final poll is election day.
NO MATTER WHAT THE POLLS SAY - we have to work like we are 5 points behind.... otherwise we risk a loss from complacency.
I have lost my bump.
LOL
The chances of Obama winning - with 56% are exactly zero.
Then again its not like the odds favor him.
He’ll have to be content with that massive win on Intrade.
Intrade will be shifting soon I bet.
“Looks to me like people are getting cocky and overconfident about these latest poll numbers”
You got that right and there’s three weeks left.
I expect we’ll soon see an onslaught against Romney with allegations of either drug use, sexual harassment, pedophilia, homosexuality, bestiality, alcoholism, mental instability, racism, rape, theft, financial improprieties or all of the above.
If Hussein loses, we must be vigilant of the lame duck period. If he is the muslim plant so many wonder about, there’s no telling what he will attempt or do.
Me too! But, if you live in a 'swing state' find a little time to donate to the campaign in the town where you live!!
No doubt he will be doing his best to leave a lot of land-mines, dirty tricks and nasty surprises.
Yes but we control the House of Representatives and can
filibuster anything in the Senate correct?
Oh, forgot to add a few more possibilities: some historian will tie Romney’s direct ancestors to the Mountain Meadows Massacre, the Donner party, Lizzie Borden or Romney himself to the Jim Jones Guyana compound.
The margin of error on the Gallup poll is 2%.
Thanks for the good laugh.
