Well, if it’s a setup, in order to begin inflating zero’s numbers for a fictitious comeback, then Gallup can kiss their credibility good-bye. These final couple of weeks of the campaign are when pollsters need to start putting out the real numbers, or they’ll be a laughingstock.
No way Obama won over any undecideds last night. Undecideds needed to hear from Obama why another four years under him would be any different than the last four. Obama did not even attempt to make that case last night. Thus, undecideds will break this year they way the traditionally do — heavily in favor of the challenger.

I think you’re right and certainly hope so. But I gotta say I’m sick of this “undecided voter”, at least the ones portrayed in the town hall and in the media in general. Like they are so above the rest of us who actually have a philosophy and long thought out ideas. Like the putz in the first question whining that one of the candidates needs to give him a job, and afterwards said that Romney looked right at him and that made him feel good and Obama’s answer comforted him. What a puss.
They are so proud of the fact they have been clueless for four years and now everyone is begging them for their opinion and their vote.
Yeah I know we need these folks but had to vent.
Call me a a conspiracy theorist, but could they be setting the table for the first president ever to come back from this big of a Gallup deficit in 3 weeks kind of scenario?
I know it’s a bit of a stretch, but could they be trying to cement him as the true “comeback kid” and therefore, all of America will need to bow down to him? I dunno...seeing this and seeing the Rasmussen just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.
I trust Rasmussen a lot more as he has historically been very accurate. I just think that there are too many freeloaders who want to keep this guy around for four (or more) years.
