In the most shocking survey this election cycle, a poll released today finds Mitt Romney leading President Barack Obama by 14 percentage points among likely Florida voters.
Foster McCollum White & Associates, Baydoun Consulting and Douglas Fulmer & Associates, of Dearborn, Mich., questioned 1,503 likely Florida voters Friday and found Romney, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, leading Obama 54%-40%. The poll has a margin of error of +/-2.53%.
Although recent Florida polls have been trending slightly in Romney’s direction (+2% and +1% in the most recent surveys), the jaw-dropping 14-point gap is a shocker. Future polls will determine if this result is ahead of the curve or merely an outlier.
In the U.S. Senate race in Florida, the poll found Rep. Connie Mack IV, R-Fort Myers, leading incumbent Bill Nelson 51%-43%.

I know this is not very scientific, but in my little world of 12 co-workers; 6 voted for Obama in 2008 - 4 of those will definitely NOT for him again.

As everybody else has said, I would like to know much more about this polling outfit and the methodology they used to come up with this.
I am 97.0347228 correct in my predictions.
Add a few of my Florida buddies as supporters to the mix (to quote Carl from ATHF: “Stone cold lock of the day”)

” The GOP is going to take the Senate and R&R are going to win in a landslide.”
Maybe , but we have to find a way to KEEP the majority in both Houses for the forseeable future . Not much good if we are going to hand it back to the left in 4 or 8 years . Been that route time and time again .
Yep. I hear people singing the praises for Obamacare every day in the Philadelphia area.
No, its release was pushed until December. And supposedly Obama is not seen in the movie at all, so that would make it hard for it to be an Obama propaganda piece I think. Kathryn Bigelow is a serious, quality-oriented director, with an anti-war bias to be sure, but not at the expense of making a realistic film. I expect this one to be a serious war and strategy film like her K19: The Widowmaker was. She's probably the best female director of action films that's ever existed.

When Mark Boal, the writer was given sensitive information that no civilian is supposed to see, that is a definite no-no to me..regardless of Bigelow’s pedigree.

“I know this is not very scientific, but in my little world of 12 co-workers; 6 voted for Obama in 2008 - 4 of those will definitely NOT for him again.”
And here’s the really important thing about this and other anecdotal reports like it: people will be talking to each other about this. Maybe not to strangers, but to those they are close to at work and family. And they’ll be discussing why they changed their minds about voting for Obama again. And folks that haven’t yet made up their minds, particularly those who are thinking about switching, will be listening.
I urge everyone on FR to use the soft sell to anyone they know who is open to an honest discussion. Engage people. Ask what they are thinking, and then gently seize on any doubts and subtly interject facts and statistics to buttress those doubts. For sure, do not waste any time at all with Obamabots. Spend your time only where it might make a difference.
Dick Morris has hinted of seeing internals from an un-named firm, hush-hush-bla-bla-bla, that Romney is doing fine etc in his estimation... I wonder if these are the guys...
If this is,in any way,indicative of the nation in general this is great news.But IMO Florida is a special case and even a huge swing like this there might not be great news nationally.There are about 10 key states this year,Florida being just one...but granted it’s an important one.
Yup. And then things get nasty. Obastard isn’t going to give up power nicely...
People whose polls are usually only seen by insiders...
