Definitely looks like BO is in a tailspin to me.

A D+4 sample is probably close to accurate: shifting 2 percent of the sample form D to I (which is probably a little more accurate) may give Romney another percentage point, but the difference it makes isn’t just less than the margin of error, it’s within rounding error.
interesting with over sample of dems the margin could be even bigger. no wonder O looked so constipated
Drudge links to a poll that shows the Obamanation with a post-convention bump that puts him ahead of Romney 46-44%.
“Reagan democrats” are horrified at what they saw at the RAT convention.
“Martha... those people are not us...”
2008 election accuracy— they were pretty good, only slightly tipped to Obama:http://americanresearchgroup.com/ratings/2008/uspresident/
Note also-—a good point by another Freeper-—this poll includes a landline/ cell split (83/17, with Romney up 4 on landlines, down 3 on cells) so the overall numbers seem pretty valid and seem to reiterate Rasmussen’s.
bump
Whew!
And 95%+ of them will answer, "Why?" with a garble that adds up to, "Because he's black." Same thing with O.J.'s acquittal. Sometimes I think blacks are more about race than white people.
Seems the age of accountability and reason has bumped to 50 and older.
So what happened 50 years ago (1962)? What caused this change from a brave and ardent love of freedom to a weak acquiescence to socialist tyranny? How were children raised and educated after 1962 that caused this incredible shift? How did public schools go from education that included the Bible and prayer to socialist indoctrination run by socialist-loving teacher unions?
One may point to many reasons, but something socially, morally, and legally significant and catastrophic happened in 1962, and hardly anyone noticed it. Engel v. Vitale, 370 U.S. 421 (1962), the famous “establishment” case of “separation of church and state,” outlawed prayer in public schools. As Justice Stewart wrote in his dissent, “the Court says that in permitting school children to say this simple prayer, the New York authorities have established ‘an official religion’” (Engel, 370 U.S. 421).
This is where misapplication of the establishment clause to create “separation of church and state” has taken us – to the brink of Marxist tyranny, the destruction of the freedoms protected by our Constitutional Republic, and economic collapse. The fact is, the First Amendment of the Constitution NEVER RESTRICTS FREE AND PEACEFUL RELIGIOUS EXERCISE in government, out of government, or anywhere else. The Constitution ONLY RESTRICTS THE STATE from either establishing religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.
Many Christians are confused about this and have allowed the other side to dictate the terms and results in the fight for freedom. The issue today is not an establishment issue, not even close. The issue is the socialists’ use of a Jeffersonian metaphor (“separation of church and state”) in place of the text and meaning of the Constitution to push Christianity and Constitutional free exercise and expression out of government and public life. If God’s people at the foundation of our country were so timid about instilling the things of God in government, we never would have had, for example, the government buildings as well as monuments in Washington D.C. with scripture carved in stone. These artifacts as well as the Constitution itself testify against lie of “the separation of church and state” embraced by our popular culture.
The health of a government DEPENDS ON THE free exercise of religion evidenced by the history of America, probably the healthiest form of government in history. The Book of Revelation in the Bible begins with describing how God's presence is in the midst of his people, the church(es) (Rev. 1:12-3:22). It ends with a description of God's presence in the midst of His people, the holy city, the New Jerusalem (Rev 22:2). In the midst of God’s people is a "tree of life," the leaves of which are "for the healing of the nations." We, the church, institutionally and individually, have God's life and healing so desperately needed in the nations including America. The history of our nation reflects a direct relationship between the involvement of God’s people in government as well as society, and the health of our country that has flourished with individual liberty. Separating the church from the state is like separating the doctor from the patient or the medicine from the wounded. It’s up to God’s people to muster the courage and resolve to get this medicine back into the bloodstream of the dying patient.
We should keep in mind how important money is in politics.
For the past few months, the Obama campaign has been spending every last dollar it’s been taking in and more on ads, while the Romney campaign has been conserving a significant portion of its funds. Yet Romney is still at least even in the polls.
No one panics if his favorite marathon runner is ‘’losing’’ by a few yards halfway through a race, since it’s assumed the runner must be conserving his energy for the final push. The race is not always to the swift but to the conservative.
It’s unlikely Obama will be taking in much money now since the Democrats alienated many Jewish contributors by booing God and Jerusalem. And there’s a limit to how many ads the Democrats can continue to buy without being able to pay for them, as they’re doing now. The future looks bright for Romney/Ryan.
My prediction: Obama will be lucky to get 40% of the vote.
This poll has Romney up by 3, while Rasmussen has the Liberal Messiah up by 2. I hope this poll is the more accurate of the two.
That’s not what Drudge has right now....
I think an EMPTY CHAIR could beat ZERO in NOVEMBER...
Look, here is the cold hard truth. There are more potential democrat votes than republican votes in America. This is because half of Americans pay no income tax at all and a large percentage of them are on the government dole. Romney has to turnout every vote he can and do his best to suppress dem turnout by negative campaigning. That’s it. There is no conservative majority in America, the majority are the ones with their hands out. Luckily a good portion of them do not vote.
