First I do not believe Obama is ahead. I think he is currently losing by 5-10 points. Secondly, I have been wondering about this projected over confidence by the MSM. If Obama is going to win by such huge margins, there really is no reason for democrats to turn out at all. Afer all it is now in the bag. The MSM is making democrats think Obama is winning 90 O and 10 R. I think the democrats are building their own defeat and we will see a huge wipe out in a month with a new President Romeny.

Romney will Win! Its all propaganda from the media favoring Obama. The Mega Bankers have already picked Romney to be the next President.

Then the question is — why is the media so much in the tank for Obama? Why are pollsters doctoring the poll results, to make it seem that Obama is more popular than he really is????

"...if you support Obama and are treated every day to wall-to-wall news headlines showing Obama so far ahead of Romney in the polls that the election is basically over, then you're less likely to go out of your way to vote in November."

Funny how that dynamic works, ain't it? Add to that, the fact that a great many of Obama's core constituents are already too demoralized and hurting to get off the couch, and they're cutting their own throats with these fantasy polls.

Hope everyone is right on this subject, but it seems like whistling past the graveyard to me. What worries me most is the eye test and my eye test tells me that for every Romney bumper sticker I see 4-5 Obummer stickers. Scientific? No, of course not.

But it scares me seeing that in Alabama, as conservative as a state can get. It tells me that whatever conservative support Romney is getting it is very lukewarm.

Heard a black caller on Hannity today that cited Obama being ahead in “almost every” poll and was bragging about O being re-elected based off that information.

Telling you right now the Obamabots are in for a severe sticker shock to the point where there is going to be rioting and violence after this thing is over. The false narrative that Obama has this thing wrapped up is just going to be fuel on the fire after his commie ass is thrown out of the White House.

Just because the poll results are skewed doesn’t mean Romney is ahead. He needs to get people excited.

I tend to base it on the LOBS theory.

Lack
Of
Bumper
Stickers

I see NO Obama bumpers stickers, or signs, even in the almost exclusively democratic neighborhoods I work in. I think voter apathy is going to hit both sides, but the deceit of the demolibs with be revealed in the next few weeks.

Can’t wait till the debates...

Skewed polls, sure, no question. What will you say though if after all these skewed polls Obama still wins? Honest question, what will you say?

Who's Romeny? Is he on the ballot?

Whether or not Obama is ahead or behind, Fur Shur both parties are in full tilt in VIrginia looking for every vote in what is probably the tightest race on the planet in 50 years.

Today Romney actually came around my neighborhood looking for my vote. He even went to the Legion post down the road ~ and that is less than 2 blocs from Garfield School where I vote!

Obama didn't get that close yet but he did go into furthest Woodbridge to an outdoor stadium and actually drew a crowd. This is within a half mile of the Salvadoran legation!

They're big time around here yo!

So my vision of both these guys trying to importune me as I walk into the poll at Garfield school may well come true ~ think of it as a nightmare ~ that a FReeper has the key and critical vote and whichever way he casts it that guy is going to win.

It's coming!@

Wish I could be this confident. I think Romney still has a lot of work to do.

Thoughtful commentary about how he might do it is here:

I don’t get TV reception where I live so I never watch TV. But yesterday I was waiting in line at the IRS office and there was a TV monitor on with no sound. I saw Romney talking for the first time. He didn’t look good. I didn’t know what he was saying but his face said to me he is weak and has no confidence. And for some stupid reason he was wearing a striped shirt with no tie. That is just dumb.
