he's already dropped 2pts(in one day) in the Rasmussen(I assume they got some bad data), Washington Post at 1......just a small hiccup.....Gallup's polls have been tainted ever since the justice dept. file a lawsuit against them(and they poll registered voters). Funny, Axelrod calls them up in April about the poll they had just released, complaining to them. Then they get hit with an "unrelated" lawsuit...gotta luv the chicago style politics, reminds me of Hugo Chavez techniques

I believe CNN polled registered voters and over sampled dems by 5.5%...
Washington Post polled 6% more dems(registered voters)

I only posted it because you run on and on about Barry and he cant crack 46%....polls go up and down daily , this election is all about the Electoral math and Barry has the easier path....Mitts gotta run the table on the swing states , he's already gave up in Michigan and Pennsylvania for now and Ohio is trending Obama which is the death nail for Mittens.

Mitts not the greatest debater either as we saw in the Primaries and debating is an Obama strength....so I imagine when he gets 3 shots at Mittens 1 on 1 on stage it could get ugly.

we'll see come Nov.....but with unemployment above 8% and Mitt not leading by double digits right now...I'd say he;s got problems.
 
The only polls that should matter from this point on are in Ohio and Florida.

Mitt fails to take either and it's all over but the cryin'.
 
"Mr. President, we hate you. We think you suck but fortunately for you your opponent sucks more and is more hated"

That pretty much sums it up with why he's at 52.

Whats the Presidents job approval got to do with his opponent?

Did Mittens make him better?
 
Carter was also up on Reagan and Mondale was up on Bush I at this time in their races. So what's your point?

The difference is Reagan carved up Carter in the debates, same as Bush I (read my lips) did to Mondale, and that turned the tide for them.

But Mittens is going to get pasted head-to-head with Barry.

It makes people realize "hey, maybe he's not so bad". Are you saying they're not even closely related?

The 52% is his job approval rating.

Not his polling numbers vs. Romney.

No, they're not closely related, maybe distantly.

You're saying people decided they don't like Mitt, so instead of saying they still are unhappy with the job Obama has done, they now decided he's doing okay?

That's what those numbers mean Mitch, it means 52% of the people polled think Obama is doing a positive job, not a better job than the other guy would do.

What poll was that?

Some organization polled the the Vice-Presidential candidates against each other in the 1980 campaign?

I doubt that...

Florida is a must for Romney, IMO...But he could win without Ohio, granted it would be tougher but Colorado, Iowa and Wisconsin are in play.

No republican has ever won the White House and lost Ohio....it's a must for Mittens.
 
Obama +1 in todays Rasmussen....lost 4pts in 2 days

after this N African fiasco and rejecting a meeting with Iraeli president watch it fall even further...Obama is a joke. President Kardashian....all show no substance, its to bad we have so many idiots that care more about how cool he is

up 5 , down 3 , up 6 , down 10....who cares dude...National Polls mean shit it's why both campaigns laugh when they get asked about them.

ELECTORAL COLLEGE is all that matters and it's been explained at nauseum that Barry has the easier path..Mitt has to almost sweep all the swing states.
 
speaking of Ohio... according to this graph, helpfully supplied by God Himself, things aren't as bad as the repubs are making them out to be

the real story here is that as unhappy and underwater as most Americans are, the GOP/DC insiders/WallStreet/etc. hasn't been able to keep all the good news enjoyed by people at the top buried. Not many, but enough voters realize that Big Business is doing fine, with record numbers of cash on hand, and record profits, despite, or maybe because of high unemployment allowing them to squeeze their employees. And therefore the idea that they need bigger tax cuts, less regulations, etc. might not actually lead them to hire more workers on, since they've gotten their way since the 80's... and it hasn't lead to consistently low employment, better wages, better benefits, etc. for the middle class.

so I think ENOUGH people realize that a vote for the GOP here isn't going to move things in the "right" direction, even though the campaign rhetoric and obfuscation from the mainstream corporate media outlets has tried to confuse them. enough people still understand this, even though they may not be able to articulate it.
