Obama has managed to make this election a referendum on Mitt Romney. If someone were to land here from another planet, turned on the TV and listened to Obama speak, it could easily be assumed that Obama (and not Romney) is the incumbent.
Its simple folks. They’re setting Mitt up to get a big bounce after the convention.
Numbers drop a little in the weeks before, then they increase immediately afterward.
That's because Obama IS the incumbent, and not Romney.
Good point. And the folks mostly still get their news from the MSM not alternative Fox or Talk Radio. The takers simply now are outvoting the makers. And stop the baloney about Mitt being the one who is losing the votes. Actually, the Right has been very strong in its support . The problem is the Blue states large electoral votes outnumber the small red states. Period. Mitt needs to win back some of the Bama Red states of 2008. If he does, he will squeak through. If not, our Republic is done. He needs Ohio, Pa. NV, NM IN MI and some combo of WVA, MN and NH.
Pardon, but nobama is the incumbent, Romney is the challenger. Good thought though. You’re right.
