I don’t get the overall numbers as well, I don’t know what secret sauce ras or any polsters are using but there overall numbers just don’t line up with what the internals of their own polls suggest. It really doesn’t ad up.
For a neck and neck race with the numbers generally being reported, 48-48 or so that means Obama’s support is only down about 4 points from ‘08 and that just doesn’t add up in the least. His support is down 20% in the single largest constuency of his party base alone, (3.6% of overall votes roughly) and way behind where he was with Indies in 2008, he has ton from winning th by a good margin to losing them by a size able margin (easily another 3-4% of the overall electorate) and yet the polling total numbers are down just 4 points? Doesn’t add up.
Either the fix is already in and th voting doesn’t matter at all and polls are just being made to give cover post election or something is incredibly wrong with the polls.
I do not believe for one Minute this guy who didn’t get elected as him but on the anti bush, first black guy thing 4 years later in complete failure is somehow only down 4 points. This doesn’t pass the smell test folks.
We are in an economy that is graduating more college students than total jobs created!!!! Foreign policy is in shambles yet we are to buy this is a neck and neck race? Doesn’t pass the smell test.
If he’s down 20% with a subset of his base (white dem) then shouldnt that drop be reflected in the total dem count? Still looks like Obama and Romney each get the same share of their respective party. Do you agree? Something isnt right.
I read a comment on another thread

that said the Rasmussen has admittedly increased the D/R ratio because more dems are answering his poll than R’s. Is that effing stupid to anyone else besides me? Shouldnt he base it on a reasonable turnout? What a jackass.
