It was on Oct 27 as evidenced by the link provided earlier in the thread. In 2000 that was 11 days before the election. After that the race began to tighten quickly.
The 2000 election was very volatile in October according to Gallup. See the 4th chart on this page:

We’ve seen a different type of race this year. Since Romney has taken the lead its been relatively steady.
This race surely could start tightening but my gut feeling (i know, not very scientific) is that it will not tighten like we saw in 2000. If the libs want to hang their hat on 2000 I’m happy with that.
Thanks FRiend. I found it too.
Maybe Romney has a DUI the RATs can expose the weekend before the election.

I can guarantee there will not be a last minute past DWI arrest for Mitt coming out.
