Gallup: Romney 51-46. Most devastating internals yet for Obama.

Posted on 10/27/2012 10:15:29 AM PDT by hawaiian

Obama approval rating has taken a 14-point turnaround for the negative in the last 4 days. Getting just killed on personal approval. Hasn't been above 47 in 2 weeks. Benghazi and his body language are hanging all over him.

Exactly. I’d love to know the “particulars” of their agreements over the last five years. The Clintons and the Obamas have so much dirt on each other, but the code of Omerta rules. They may lose elections, but they never do time.

“Ya can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs, ya know. That truly is their driving philosophy.”

Yes it is. They seem to have been more coordinated on clamping down on anti-Islamic speech than anything else. A camel’s nose in the tent for censorship at a minimum.

Exactly the same experience here in an 80/20 McCain over Obama county in TX. The line to early vote was an hour long and nobody had ever seen anything like it.

The article also says the other polls were mostly giving Bush a 3 point edge. That particular CNN poll seems to have been what you would call an outlier, the others were likely more accurate.

I remember Bush was ahead for a while, not by more than a few points, and then the news over the last weekend of the DUI hit. I just hope they don't have another bombshell like that on Romney, because it could change what seems to be a similar polling reality in this race, Romney being ahead by a few points.

“and will ultimately wither under the constant drone of this assault”

There were two of them up there, and they didn’t use them.

Here’s a video metaphor for Obama’s re-election, kinda sums it up - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yo5zH0Il8B0

Long lines in Kansas too (also deep red) - about a 30 min wait at my precinct on Monday when I went with my brother.

“Romney needs to step it up a bit. The guy seems to be running low on gas. Yet he still smiles, and that is good.”

Man, I feel sorry for the guy. Mitt has been running hard, all through a tough primary election up to now. He must be dog tired, he is 65 you know, against Obama who had no primary to contend with at all, and who is only 51 but is looking older every day and looks more beat out than Romney does. Mitt is stoked up by adrenelin and such positive feedback from the crowds greeting him that will fuel him through to the election. The guy is like the energizer bunny right now. He keeps on going.

This poll makes my day! Some of the comments brought tears to my eyes. I am always cautiously optimistic when it comes to any pre-election poll. However if it is true that Obama may be taken to the woodshed on election day and these thugs are shown just how strongly the American people reject them and their Commie, Marxist tactics—my faith in our country and God’s leading of it is profoundly renewed (at least on this issue.)

We had over 4000 early voters in my red county ...and our population is only about 30,000.

“I’m in California, and I am not feeling comfortable about this election. Too many people still support Obama.”

If you want to use California as your guide then consider this.

In 2008 the Kenyan won the state by 24 points, now he is at +13. That’s down 11 points.

Obama should go golfing, or call Bill Ayers and tell him to get ready to ghost write another memoir.

That would bode well for down ticket races even if you aren’t in a swing state...which are also very important.

“This race surely could start tightening but my gut feeling (i know, not very scientific) is that it will not tighten like we saw in 2000. If the libs want to hang their hat on 2000 I’m happy with that”

I can guarantee there will not be a last minute past DWI arrest for Mitt coming out.

It also demoralized our own base quite a bit as far as turnout with all of the negative publicity...things got cut way, way too close. The ones that did not show up in 2000 did show up in 2004 which shocked the pundits who expected a Kerry victory...remember one of the #1 issues on the exit polls was “moral values” - that was a clear signal of how things were going early on.

I sit corrected. I did not remember it being that wide of a margin in 2000 at any point in the race.
