We still need to ride through the middle of ‘em with all guns blazing.

[randita]

I doubt complacency will play into this election. Republicans don’t just want to BEAT Obama, they want to TROUNCE him and repudiate his liberal agenda.

RCP Conveniently leaves out this poll which was one of the top five most accurate in 2008, but they include IBD/TIPP, which was the 15th out of 23 in accuracy, and ABC/Wash Post which was 17th out of 23 in accuracy. (For the Record, Rasmussen and Pew were the most accurate, CBS/Time and Newsweek were the least.)

Maybe Sandy is warning to democrtas what’s to come if they vote for O.

[NoBamaEVER2012]

Hopefully the Hurricane keeps the Libs home and scared to come out to vote.

Nate is a fag.

That is why he can’t see past his erotic fixation on obama.

I am confused. There is a Battleground/Political poll showing Obama ahead by one that is posted on Real Clear Politics. I have not seen this poll anywhere except here and the link provided, I didn't see it on the Terrance site. A Google search didn't turn it up either.

Any insight?

This is Battleground’s “vote election model” which would have to be the one Brit Hume referenced yesterday on Fox News Sunday.

[Buckeye McFrog]

The poll also found that Romney has an even greater advantage among middle class voters, 52 percent to 45 percent.

Hence Obama's relentless four-year drive to decimate the Middle Class.

The political elite and pollsters have no idea how angry Americans are and how determined they are to throw Obama and his cronies out. I am looking for a landslide followed by a wave of criminal prosecutions for Obama, Clinton, Biden, Holder, Napolitano, Geithner, and many others.

The political elite and pollsters have no idea how angry Americans are and how determined they are to throw Obama and his cronies out......

Bump!!

[ConservativeDude]

Yes.

The aspect of the Battleground Poll that shows obama up 1 is the raw number...sort of like what a few weeks ago we would call “registered voters”.

But the number where Romney is up five, is more like what we would call “likely voters”. The point being, after a series of diagnostic questions related to intensity and resolve to vote, Romney is up big. Enthusiasm is all with Romney.

Of course, it “may” not play out that way. But it probably will.

We have every right to be pleased and not at all surprised with what this Battleground poll shows (in both numbers).
