The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 24% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president. Forty-one percent (41%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -17.
In a hypothetical Election 2012 matchup, Mitt Romney earns 48% of the vote, while President Obama attracts 44%. That's Romney's biggest advantage in over a month.

>>I’m honestly curious as to the rules of what can be said about this, and what will be the rules going forward. If people applaud Romney leading Obama in the polls, etc., is that going to run afoul of FR’s policy regarding supporting Romney? <<
Exactly. Are we supposed to cheer this, or “boo”?
When we wake up and Romney has been defeated and the Marxist Dictator is triumphant, are we supposed to high-five and pop the champagne corks?
I think we have entered Wackyland.
I don’t believe those polls for a second. The whole race Romney was always supposedly the 2nd choice... yet each and every time someone collapsed... all of their support went to someone else.
The media is trying to keep information from us about how close the race currently is between Romney and Gingrich.
Romney will not and should not win in November (if he somehow is the nominee).
You wanna quit pinging us?
“You wanna quit pinging us?”
Actually no. Jim Robinson has declared this site to be Romeny free. The poster was pushing more pro-Romney nonsense and questioning my commitment to National Security. The “Oh My, the world will end if we don’t support Romney.” Are you going to enforce Jim Robinson’s statements or not? If you are not, then what good are you?
Mr. Robinson, I’m confused. Why do you allow these folks to continue to “backdoor” push Romney? It does not follow from clear statements you have made sir. Also, if you review many comments on the thread they should be removed. For one the picture of “Republicans for Romney” is deeply offensive and direct affront to those of us that won’t support Romney on principle. The clear statements made is that “OBR” is equivalent to being for Obama. Why aren’t the Admin Moderators deleting that stuff?
So, when I see Pro-Romney posts, I’m going to notify the Admin Moderators, because it needs to be purged.
Mr. Robinson, this is your home. I will abide by your rules. IF you directly tell me, not a moderator, that you don’t want me doing this. Then sir I will stop immediately.
Please lay off the moderators. My long standing instructions to them is to not ban members unless absolutely necessary. If a long term member has to be banned, I prefer to be the heavy and take the blame myself. They can ban newbie trolls and bots that show up, but I’ll take the responsibility for accepted or long term members who have now decided to leave the Life & Liberty fold.
Thanks
Yes sir, I will comply in both letter and spirit. Thank you for the clarification. Admin Moderators, my apologies.
Granted, my experience was brief and ancient as well. Plus the New England state was an entirely different world from Massachusetts at the time and, even still, is the most conservative of the six (New Hampshire), but I was told then that the town council was the most basic unit of government and, if organized with other town councils, could basically override what was decided at the state level.
I would assume that is now past tense even in New Hampshire, given the libtrard love of centralizing government. But I'm assuming it was also true in Massachusetts at one time, right? If so, how long ago?
Why is it the only polls being conducted are Obama vs. Romney. Newt & Paul are still in the race and just because Santorum’s not campaigning doesn’t mean people can’t vote for them.
If it was such a hard climb for Romney before Santorum, shouldn’t there still a challenge? I hate this crowd, cramming this guy down our throats 24/7.
The best we can hope for is that Romney would not see fit to declare himself president for life as Obama is certainly intent on doing. Romney may actually have some limit beyond which he will not go but I see no evidence that the current illegitimate occupant recognizes any limit whatsoever.
“He may have some good ones but they are so outweighed by the bad...”

Good traits...let’s see now...OH, YEAH, how about...no, that’s not right...OKAY, how about this...naaah, that ain’t gonna fly...I give up.
So will you be glad when and if Obama defeats Romney? If so, that is the most demented and sick worldview I can imagine.
But you would have that in common with Democratic Underground.
Amen, brother. Newt HAS to get his campaign going again in high gear. He has much of the support from Santorum's backers now.
How exactly would a banished person apologize to the forum if they are banished?
If anybody could do it, you could. I can’t imagine you, or any other Freeper with any pride, doing it though.
Weird stuff going on.
Who should win then? 0bozo?
And hey, by now, it's pretty clear that Romeny will be the nominee. It's not a matter of “somehow is the nominee”. Look at the delegate count.
We’ve weathered storms before, we’ll ride this one out too I reckon.
Maybe, just seems a little more intense. At least before we got behind the eventual nominee. FR has been my sanctuary against all the liberals I’m surrounded by. Now, not so much.
Thanks.
