Not long ago, Independents were the go-to demographic for determining who would win elections. How the Independents swung, so too would the election. In 2008, Barack Obama carried Independents in Ohio by 8 points and in Florida by 7 points. That victory among Independents contributed a great deal to his 2.8-point win in Florida and his 4.5 point win in Ohio. A victory by Romney among Independents could tilt both key states in his favor.

They haven’t ignored it. They’ve actively lowered their projection of independents in their forecasting models for their polls.

They’re well aware, but their media donations to Obama come at no cost.

For decades any incumbent below 50% was a loser and 99% of the time they lost. obama has changed physics and the laws of nature. He is so special... as in the short bus kind.

Nothing new. The media bemoans negative campaigning, until it’s all Obey does. Now not a peep.

We have to do something about the media if we get past this election.
