Rasmussen 49-45 Obama Daily Presidential Tracking Poll

Rasmussen Reports ^ | Sept. 9, 2012 | Scott Rasmussen

[RDangerfield]

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows President Obama attracting support from 49% of voters nationwide, while Mitt Romney earns 45% of the vote. Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and three percent (3%) are undecided.

Swing state tracking results are updated daily for subscribers at 10:00 a.m. Eastern. Take advantage of a limited-time-only discount to subscribe.

This is the president’s biggest lead over Romney among Likely Voters since March 17. See daily tracking history. Obama’s convention bounce is evident both in the head-to-head numbers with Romney and in his Job Approval ratings (see below).

The president has made significant gains among voters aged 40-64. Platinum Members can see demographic breakdowns and additional information from the tracking poll on a daily basis.

The president’s bounce began the night after Bill Clinton spoke to the convention and received rave reviews. Sixty-six percent (66%) of voters nationwide have a favorable opinion of the former president. Democrats overwhelmingly believe Clinton and Obama have similar views on how to fix the economy, but few Republicans and unaffiliated voters share that assessment. Among all voters, 59% see Clinton as a better president, while 19% prefer Obama. Democrats are evenly divided. (see the rest at link)

Very well said WashingtonSource. I would also caution my FRiends here that there seem to be some “sleeper trolls” afoot, i.e. folks who signed up a year or two back and are now spouting negativity.

Stay focused and stay on message.

“I can understand why someone would be afraid to say NO in regards to Obama because they are afraid since these people know where we live and they can pass on that information to other groups.”

You nailed it again, dear lady.

They call me, I’m going to lie like a Muslim & I hope millions do likewise & say “Yo, Obama he my DAWG!”.

They don’t own us yet.

RE:
“El Rushbo called it the Doug Wilder factor but IIRC it was about the LA mayoral election with Tom Bradley the black candidate; he lost but the phone polls had him so far ahead that the conclusion was that people called by pollsters were fearful of declaring for Bradley’s opponent for fear of being labeled “racist” and that info somehow entering a permanent database.

If Obama’s ahead in Rasmussen, how does anyone know that’s the result of a lot of false answers from people who will vote for Romney but feel that they dare not say so to an anonymous voice calling them out of the blue?”

Well let’s test-drive that El Rushbo theory with the 2008 results, El Cid. I study stats of elections, so I know his theory sure did not work in that Obama election:

2008
Final poll
Gallup 55-44
Rasmussen 52-46
RCP Avg 53-46

Final results
Obama 52.9-45.7

Sixty-six percent (66%) of voters nationwide have a favorable opinion of the former president.

Aside from his well-known adultery, don't these idiots realize that Clinton has been a perjurer, rapist, murderer, druggie, and illegal fund raiser? Strange that his favorability rating now is much higher than his percentage of the popular vote (43%, then 49%) in his two presidential elections.

Don't more people out there care about character and basic decency and morality in their evaluation of public figures? If not, the country is headed to the ash heap.

Jeepers. Thanks for the ping!

[elcid1970]

OK.....got it. Goodhearted people were ready for change & Obama was an unknown quantity with an enormously favorable buzz factor. McCain sucked as a candidate. Didn’t really want the job anyway, IMO.

It’s four years later & Obama has enormous negatives based on his record in office. He is seen as the candidate of some truly leftwing crazies who will use the race card like a bludgeon, yelling “You just don’t like having a black man as President!”

I must hold to my belief that this time lots of people called by pollsters will answer falsely & pull the handle for Romney, if for no other reason than to say chuck you Farley to the current regime.

But thanks for the numbers. It’s always important to stick to facts.

Please remember that at this time the polls had Carter ahead as well. Go to work!

It makes the first debate crucial.

Which means Christians need to pray and fast. The sooner we learn that everything is firstly a spiritual battle, as The Bible says, the sooner the battles will be won. Christians must stop being lazy and secular minded and must, by faith, start to move some mountains!

They’ve been re-hypnotized.

Salamander, you hit the nail on the head. This needs to be out all over the place. A start would be if you put this up in it's own thread.

[Eleutheria5]

Aw, c’mon. You gotta approve of Bill Clinton, because he had a high approval rating. Besides, he was entertaining.

PASS THE WORD--THE MORE VOTERS KNOW,
THE HARDER FOR TEAM OHAHA TO PULL OFF VOTER FRAUD

2012 Team Ohaha is using the 2008 Anita (Mao) Dunn strategy to manipulate voters, to downplay Ohaha's destructive policies ....and his scary plans for the next term. Dunn said later, THEY, and only THEY, decided what the media should know about 2008 candidate Ohaha.

The 2012 Ohaha campaign keeps fudging its campaign income and outgo reports---as a way to build "deniability" in order to fool the voters.

Ohaha has tons of money secreted all over the place....and he grabbed control of the census---that means he's got all the CV he needs to falsify FEC reports. There are people "donating" to Ohaha that have no idea they are financing his reelection.

====================================================

2012 TEAM OHAHA PLANNING MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD

Remember, voter fraud is the Chi/mobs' specialty---do NOT underestimate Rahm and Axelrod (both running O's reelection), and Valerie whatsherface in the WH.

Let us not forget----the minute they hit the WH, the Chi/mob went into action: the WH Chi/mob took over the census---and now have all the CV they need to file phony FEC reports using stolen federal dollars falsified as campaign contributions.

Do not underestimate the wealth of cash the Ohahas/Chi-mob can come up with to rig the election......remember, these are the kingpins of corrupt Chicago politics. At one time, conscientious FEC investigators verified money was coming from legal citizens....but if Obama wins there will be no investigations.

There are billions unaccounted for in Obama's "stimulus" packages (some used in the last election cycle).....the Ohaha kingpins have tons of money stashed away for 2012.

==================================================

POINTS TO PONDER

<><> author Dean Koontz estimates there's about $90 billion missing from the US Treasury.

<><> Ohaha's ex-COS Chi/Mayor Rahm Emanuel is running the reelection campaign---this Wall Street turd knows where all the money is hidden. Rahm also controlled all US Treasury assets (at Obama's behest) when he was COS.

=======================================

WATCH FOR PHONY FEC REPORTS from "Obama for America" and two other DNC-joint fundraising committees — the "Obama Victory Fund" and the "Swing State Victory Fund,"......and whatever other voter frauds they dream up.

============================================

Obama's 2012 reelection motto: "Don't worry--we're harmless"

THIS JUST IN Obama campaigns with former Republican and ex-Gov Charlie Crist in crucial Florida

Here's Charlie Crist with his "pal" Scott Rothstein.

2009 ABC NEWS REPORT/ FLORIDA'S INFAMOUS SCOTT ROTHSTEIN Court documents filed 2009 by federal authorities sought the forfeiture of $1.2 billion he stole in Rothstein's massive Ponzis cheme. Federal agents seized $60 million worth of assets that hint at the lavishness of Rothstein's lifestyle.

A selection of the items Rothstein purchased with other people's money included 20 luxury cars, 15 homes and other properties, an 87-foot yacht, 304 pieces of jewelry and $12 million stashed in Moroccan banks (Rothstein briefly fled to Morocco with some $20 million for three months when rumors of his alleged scam began to circulate. He returned by chartered jet in November to face US justice).

Rothstein falsified and manufactured numerous court documents---and even forged the names of judges---to inveigle unsuspecting investors into a scheme that purported to invest in fake liability court settlements that guaranteed a high rate of return. Rothstein connived to get investors by saying he was the lawyer in hundreds of settlement cases whereas lawyers say that the numbers Rothstein bandied about were an impossibility.

Rothstein also stole monies from his clients that were placed in escrow accounts that are never supposed to be touched. Rothstein begged for mercy but the judge gave Rothstein 20 years more than even prosecutors had asked. He is now serving 50 years in a federal prison.

FAST FORWARD TO TODAY---HUFF POST REPORTED 8/6 2012---SCOTT'S WIFE, KIM ROTHSTEIN was charged with money laundering conspiracy and other charges for allegedly concealing more than $1 million in jewelry from federal investigators and later attempting to sell some of it.

Prosecutors filed the charges against Kim Rothstein, 38, and four other people named as her co-conspirators. One key piece was a 12-carat diamond ring that was central to the bankruptcy proceedings in the collapse of Rothstein's Ponzi and his storied law firm---Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler.

A local jewelry store that had sold the ring to Scott Rothstein was trying to find it, leading to a web of lies and deception that even included a false claim that the ring had been sold to a dead man, prosecutors said. Kim even inveigled the jailed Rothstein to testify falsely WRT the ring.

In a February 2010 bankruptcy deposition, Kim Rothstein falsely testified under oath that "all of the missing jewelry had been turned over to the government." Now, prosecutors are seeking forfeiture of those items that were secreted by Kim Rothstein:

_Five rings, including the infamous 12-carat ring, her engagement ring, and a wedding band w/ 18 emerald cut diamonds.

_10 watches, a Rolex Daytona Cosmograph with leopard print design, a women's gold and diamond Piaget and a platinum and diamond Pierre Kunz.

_5 sets of earrings, four necklaces, two bracelets.

_A pair of pearl, diamond and sapphire cufflinks; several silver pens;

_A variety of gold coins, including 26 South African Krugerrands and 50 1-ounce gold bars.

_More than $33,000 in cash.

CHARLIE CRIST AND 2008 CAMPAIGN FLOP JOHN MCCAIN

ROTHSTEIN AND MCCAIN (McC returned Rothstein's campaign donations)

Aw, c’mon. You gotta approve of Bill Clinton, because he had a high approval rating. Besides, he was entertaining.

I hope you are being sarcastic. Remember we generally indicate that explicitly here by writing "(sarc)" at the end of a remark when appropriate.

[RightWingNilla]

I’m discouraged. This is insane. Even if Clinton was a factor, why was he a positive factor? I don’t believe it.

I think it is time to realize that we are now in the minority.

The New Progressive America has arrived and it is all about getting as many government handouts as possible.

[Eleutheria5]

The absurdity of my first remark should have sufficed to inform people that I was being sarcastic. But here’s a belated /sarc. OK?
