The latest Gallup has Romney up by 1... Note, though, that Gallup is still using Registered Voters, and is a 7 day tracking sample, whereas Ras is likely voters, and 3 days.

Time for Obama to go!
It should be disturbing to some that both these guys are UNDER 50% ~ but it doesn't bother me a bit ~ I expect worse by September and October.
Exactly 4 years ago, Obama led McCain by 5 points in the Rassmussen polls:

Obama – 49%
McCain – 44%
I am often frustrated by the Rasmussen poll.
From day one of Obama’s immaculation, I expected a somewhat linear decline in approval, and have yet to understand how it is not that way.
December of last year he hit -24. Today he is -13.
Everything Obozo does should be driving him into the sewer.
Are there really only 4% undecided at this point? That percentage seems small.
Obama is nowhere near 50%, which has to scare the daylights out of the Democrats.
"Other candidates" probably have more potential to hurt Romney than Obama. Romney was not my first choice, but I'll vote for him over Obama any day. At least he understands business and executive management.
I think Thursday is the best day to look at Ras. Polls over the weekend IMO favor Dems as people want to forget reality on the weekend...
June 2004:
Rasmussen Daily Tracking Poll: Bush 46%, Kerry 45%

So much for Obama’s theoretical victory after Walker won.
The one constant in most of the likely voter polls seems to be a 44% share for Obama. Needless to say, if this number holds, the Won is toast. Even if he was to get every undecided vote, which he won’t, going into the Fall with only 44% is fatal. When you consider the rat popular vote advantage in California and New York, the electoral map very much favors Romney.
Among the groups Obama won in 2008 he is not doing better with a single one, not even Blacks. Among the groups he lost he has not improved with let alone moved to his column. So where Rasmussen gets these numbers is a mystery. I think he is trying to make a horse race out of an ash kicking. This guy is hustling us.
