The only significant point of this is an incumbent at less than 50% going in. These polls are always skewed toward democrats. Obama is in deep trouble and the press knows it. He just lost North Carolina by coming out for gay marriage. He did not want to do that but he was forced to for two reasons 1) The idiot he chose for VP 2)His base is not turning out. Despite all the predictions about his “Billion dollar campaign it has materialized.

These polls are always skewed toward democrats.

You're right. Most are. But Ras isn't one of them. His sampling has the GOP 2 points higher than the Dems. No other pollster has the GOP even or head in likely voter #s.
