Gallup: 0 49%, R 44% (RV)

Based on a 7 day tracking poll of registered voters.

In Gallup's 3 day tracking pull of Adults, Obama's job approval is 50% to 44%. This down 4% from just yesterday. This shows that the bounce is already tapering off. Not evident in the 7 day tracking poll, but quite evident in the 3 day job approval poll.

This says “adults” not necessarily “registered voters.” Am I wrong?

The dead cat bounce does not last very long.

And, after it finishes its initial bounce, IT NEVER BOUNCES AGAIN.

[Yo-Yo]

Intrade has it 58-42 0bama

[GR_Jr.]

I really can’t believe how people are not taking these polls seriously and believing 0bama is going to lose. This is not the case We are in SERIOUS trouble here.

Romney did not surge like this after his convention, he only ticked up a bit. At this pace 0bama will be up double digits by mid week. Even Rasmussen shows this. His approval rating is surging and he is about to go the 50% mark the no one said he would.

What people are failing to realize is the Democrat convention was NOT the disaster everyone thought it was. It was a tremendous success. Why? Because it brought the Democrat majority in this country back into the fold. The are rally big behind the President now. His speech sucked for anyone who was a conservative, but it pumped a demoralized Democrat base that is now all in and it brought independents back into the fold.

I know pessimism sucks, but it’s obvious 0bama is going to win this. This is going to be 2008 all over again. The huge rallies, the 0-bam-a, 0-bam-a chants, massive fundraising and 0bama signs at every turn. Meanwhile our side will site bogus internal polls that don’t exist showing Romney winning key states are talking about the Bradley effect or saying polls over sample Democrats. Yes the sample more Democrats because registered democrats out number Republicans by a huge margin. Fact is Romney does not have even have a quarter of the enthusiasm.

Bottom line is with 0bama, a lot of people just like that rotten son of a bitch and there is nothing we can do. Romney will lose in a 2008 like landslide.

[Arthurio]

A bit bi-polar, are we? You were predicting a Romney victory just a few days ago.

[DrDude]

PPP did a recent poll in N. Carolina. They said it was tie. The breakdown of D/R was +13D. How many people are this stupid?

PPP did a poll about a week ago in Ct. They had Murphy +4.
Murphy is the Dem. The breakdown was +21 D. Could anyone really believe a word these clowns says.

[aheckle]

The Rasmussen swing state poll only had Obama up by 1

[NormsRevenge]

The GIGO Poll.

[Sarah Barracuda]

PPP is ridiculous I dont even bother checking out those polls, what does concern me is Rasmussen, they have Obama leading Romney by 5 points today and approval of the economy at 50 percent, how can people be THIS stupid..the economy sucks, the job market is dismal and people still think Obama is doing a good job?
Rasmussen has been pretty reliable in the past which is the reason why Im concerned..as far as Gallop goes, they are scared to death of the DOJ and Obama’s regime so they are pretty useless now..PPP oversamples Dems by a ridiculous margin, but Rasmussen, that is the poll that is of concern to me

[GR_Jr.]

“You were predicting a Romney victory just a few days ago.”

Yup, but then I was only expecting a very small0bama bounce. Instead we are now seeing an 0bama surge. I put too much faith in the people making that prediction. Now I realize we are still the same nation of 0-zombies we were in 2008.

[Christie at the beach]

Romney should be double digits.

Obama-nation. Every talking radio star, along with Fox News, pundits in paper/blogs/radio carrying the fight for him. Now, he is praising Clinton and saying he will keep parts of Obamacare.

[Arthurio]

This is hardly a surge. Looks to be about a 4 point bump. Romney got a bump of about 3 points out of his convention.

If you want a surge, then look to 8 years ago. Bush had a massive bump out of his convention. He was leading Kerry by 8 on this same date 8 years ago. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/election_2012_vs_election_2004_eight_years_ago_today.html

It did not last, and he ended up winning by only 2.5 points. An incumbent needs a much bigger lead/bounce/cushion than 4 points because undecideds and are going to go to the challenger, for the most part.

[Perdogg]

Also, this day four years ago McCain had a 4 point lead over Obama.

[aheckle]

If it was 2008 all over again than Obama would have been able to fill an outdoor stadium without any problem

[Republican Wildcat]

The voting poll has remained even with what it was before with more days added in from the start of the convention. I suspect within a week or so we will back to where we started - all tied up.

It is unfortunate the “bounce” from our own convention was essentially just to break even with the stall in momentum going into the convention caused by the Todd Akin controversy.

[Wilum]

Your post is exactly how I have been feeling since I saw the poll on Drudge Friday. I remember 2008 the same exact discussions on FR putting down the polls as inaccurate and the election results were within a couple of points of the polls.

Go ahead and poo-poo but unless some type of fire is lit under Romney's butt, it IS going to be a 2008 repeat and this country will be lost.

[Arthurio]

“I remember 2008 the same exact discussions on FR”

Uh, McCain was LEADING in the polls on this exact date in 2008. Convention bounces can be (and usually are) fleeting.

[aheckle]

Also I don’t the job news from Friday has been figured into any of these polls
