Of course the fact that Mitt leads the middle class vote by 14 pts has no bearing on anything.

That's why I don't buy this movement towards Obama. Listen, I am a realist. If this bump happened after Bin Laden, or some great job number, it'd be accepted and legit.

But there is nothing within the past 2-3 weeks that has been 'good news' for Obama. Gas prices up. GDP up. Unemployment claims stagnant. Home sales down. Etc. There is no there there.

I truly believe we are seeing the impact of propaganda. A self prophecy via the constant "Obama is going to win" meme of the left-wing media and culture. It is far more effective than we give credit to. For example if you got all your news from Yahoo! you would think Obama is another Reagan and Romney is Jimmy Carter. It's that biased. Obama is the cool outsider, Romney is the insider that's screwed up the economy for the past 4 years (even though it's the exact opposite).

But this is all fleeting and if Romney can get his message out to the American people, sidestepping the media filter/corruption, he will win.
