Huh? Can this possible be true? Dick Morris says that in a couple of polls Romney is ahead (Rasmussen and another one...I can't remember which). How can this be?

Rove is an idiot, probably upset that his butt buddy Jeb Bush didnt get the VP slot. Some in the GOP Establishment would love Obama to win, it would suit their agenda

Rove loves to get jobs arguing on the margins!

But then again that’s his operating style vis-a-vie FL 2000.

He’s using polls that are questionable. He lists his sources on his website.

I posted something about it earlier.

"If the election were held today, Obama would win."

The election is NOT being held today. So STFU.

Rove is an idiot and the election isn’t being held today so his comments are irrelevant.

Something like 70% of Americans think,today,that the country is headed in the wrong direction.Consumer confidence is near an all-time low.The Republican Governor of a deep blue state recently survived...easily survived...a recall effort.And I haven't even mentioned the unemployment rate,the food stamp rate,the national debt or gas prices.

And yet we're supposed to believe that Osama Obama would stroll to victory if the election was held tomorrow?

IIRC, 99 of the votes Obama “has” are leaners, not solid.

Who cares if he is wrong. We should be fighting as if Obama has 300+ electoral votes even if he does not.

What are we going to do if he were to say Romney had 271... go on a cruise between now and election day?

Not to mention "leaners" with faulty polls that are stacked with a much higher percentage of democrat voters than Republicans.

Rove is not to be trusted, hasn't been trustworthy since his "new tone policy" and "we must give amnesty so the hispanics will like us" stupidity.

He's like Grima Wormtongue (from Lord of the Rings).

Don’t see it happening. I think Obama is in a lot of trouble judging by how many ‘polls’ the democrats are putting out there. I would even be so bold to say that if an Honest pollster polled New Jersey R&R would be within 2 or 3 percentage points.

In the weeks leading up to the Wisconsin recall election there were plenty of polls indicating that Scott Walker would lose. He ended up winning the recall election by a wider margin than his original election.

Something to think about here is that the GOP ran through this past primary season with the most marginal, half-@ssed group of presidential candidates in recent memory. I mean, how could Rick Santorum be a credible candidate when he wouldn't even carry his own state in a general election? And Newt Gingrich? That jack@ss wasn't even in politics for more than a decade before crawling out from under a rock somewhere to dress up as a "Republican Presidential Candidate" for an early Halloween season. These guys all stayed in the race as long as they could because they knew damn well that even a bag of dog crap would stand a pretty decent chance of winning against Obama in November.

The game has not really even started yet. Everyone is still pounding the beach from their battleships to soften up their opponent before the marines hit the beach.

Rove is an irrelevant piece of leftist RINO shit that just needs to go away. Rove is one of those responsible for Obama being president. FU Karl with a K Rove...

Agreed. We don’t need to shoot Rove. His analysis at this moment is likely very accurate.

But the country hasn’t engaged nor gotten to know Romney and Ryan.

Dukakis held a 17 point lead over Bush Sr. after the D convention in August of 1988.

Support for a specific candidate by an independent voter at this moment can be a mile wide but an inch deep. The polls will bounce. I think Romney will hold a lead in some national polls by next week based on Ryan enthusiasm.
