Republican challenger Mitt Romney held a 1 percentage point lead over President Barack Obama in Thursday's Reuters/Ipsos daily tracking poll in a presidential race that is effectively a dead heat less than two weeks before Americans vote.

I just add 5 to anything shown for Romney/Ryan.. works for me. I’m not demoralized at all. ;-)
It’s very significant because the incumbent is at 46. :)
Yes, independents are strongly Romney.
It’s also significant (if one can call any of these polls “significant” - I am old enough to remember that Jimmy Carter had a lead in all the polls right up to election day 1980) because the source is Reuters/Ipsos. It must be causing the crania of everyone in their building to rupture and leak to have to print these figures.
Does anyone know why RCP doesn’t use Reuters for their average?
That is not good for an incumbent, even if the non committed broke 50/50 he still loses by two % points!
not bad considering they are a +10 to 13 dems...useless poll
R54 O 45 when you subtract this scumbag poll’s D+5.
41 MILLION Tea Party voters whom have never ever been polled are breathing heavy waiting to vote..
