I am skeptical of poll results for this particular year but it does seem like Romney is taking an ideal situation to beat Obama and screwing it up.
I will spare you the details and editorial.
I expect he will win.

I think this year the best poll will be donation amounts and origins to each candidate.
"...I will spare you the details and editorial."
I agree that this is much closer than it should be. Romney should just shut out all the noise and talk about things voters want to hear about: Jobs, highlighting Obama's impending massive tax hikes, economic growth, ending Obamacare (let Paul Ryan handle that one), hammering Obama on his gutting of Medicare, etc. Make the case to the American people, and forget the Obama media.
The economy has been bad for so long at some point that may have decreasing returns for challengers. I think that is why he is not walking away with it.
Not his fault....think he’s done a good job so far and hasn’t really even started running ads.
It’s close, which for Obama, it should not be. With last-minute voters often going anti-incumbent, it could easily go Mitt’s way.
I agree. Just reviewing some old polling from the past years and we’re behind no matter how many people here wanna dismiss the polls. FReepers do this EVERY SINGLE ELECTION CYCLE and what happens? It’s always closer than we think or we lose.
I’m telling you, Romney is down and floundering a little.
