I agree what would be the ultimate way to get back at the great satan then to start a nuclear war and bring down the USA. Ultimate jihad. Ok a little far out there but you never know. :0(
He’ll be singing an old Eagles song - After the Thrill is Gone.
The media said OhBama won the debate on points? Were they watching the same debate? OhBama lost because he did not look and sound like a President. He sounded like a college student running for Student Government? The media is sounding like a college t.v. station.
Ha, touché.
LOL - I bet he has a stash hidden somewhere and uses it more than anyone might believe.
Nope - time to get even more involved in making calls to into the swing states. I'll be doing that!
The 0 didn’t get a bump - except on his head - by voters switching sides, or deciding to not vote for him. LOL
It’s over but the cryin’...Team Obama and disciples didn’t realize how Romney set up Obama for Monday night’s debate on foreign policy with the issue of Libya. After the 2nd debate most snap polls had Romney clearly leading on the economy, after next Monday it will also be on foreign policy and national security.
WOW, I’m listening to a few experts on Special Report panel and they are saying this thing AIN’T OVER by a long shot...RCP poll has Romney and O extremely close in FL, VA and in Iowa the RATS are kicking butt on the ground work! BE CAREFUL Gallup is setting us up!! After listening to those guys I’m back on the roller coaster ride...UGH!! State by state polls are too DAMN CLOSE as of now.
All I have to say to Obama and his minions -— you will be evicted on Nov 6th and will never be allowed back in power. You are a disgrace to America
Rush reported that Joe Trippi sent an email out to Dems, saying not to worry about the Gallup poll, b/c most of Mitt’s gains are in the south.. From Rush’s transcript today..
RUSH- “Joe Trippi, a Democrat consultant, is feeling better. About 45 minute ago I told you he sent out a warning to the Democrats that he’s very, very worried about the Gallup poll. It shows Obama trailing Romney by seven points, 52-45. But now Trippi has sent another note out, a tweet. He’s looked at the internals. He said there’s nothing to worry about, because all of Romney’s gains are in the South.He’s up 22 in the South.”
So what, he expects a historic split between the popular and electoral vote, where Romney wins the popular vote by 5+ points but loses the election? What are the chances of that? I doubt the electoral college could survive that kind of split even if it was a Republican who lost.
Also remember, Fox has been awfully friendly to Obama this election cycle..they were citing all those phony heavily-Democrat sampled polls as gospel, for months..
Roger Ailes sent out an edict in 2011 to FNC to take it easy on the Bamster, you can read about it here http://bejohngalt.com/2011/09/fnc-moving-from-its-traditional-base/
So the Romney lead could actually be 9% instead of 7% (worse case 5%). So let's be positive and consider it a 9% lead for Romney!
I think that many Freepers have been so snake-bitten by polls over the years that they don't want to accept them when it is good news for our side. However, there is no doubt that if Gallup had Obama up by 7 this morning, the same Freepers would be howling in despair that "all is lost".
Also, I think we can finally put the "Comeback Kid" ruse to rest this election cycle. If the mainstream pollsters wanted to artificially inflate Romney's numbers to show an Obama surge, they surely wouldn't be continuing to build Romney's lead at this juncture. We are now two days after the second debate and heading into the weekend before the third and final debate on Monday. This would have been the time to show Obama "surging" if that indeed was the plan.
Two weeks from Tuesday is the election we've all been waiting for. While it is wise to not consider this in the bag, I think it is safe to say that our chances are exceedingly good and this election is no longer Obama's to win but Romney's to lose.
All Romney needs to do from this point on is not make any mistakes and turn in a solid performance in Monday night's final debate - I think we have nothing to worry about on that account.
So work hard for the next 19 days to elect Romney and elect as many Tea Party conservatives as we can downticket - but let's savor the moment as well and not fall into negativity.
I`m going to brew up a Victory Lager starting this weekend! Not to be over-confident, but I need lead time.
This is safer to assume is mere stuff. Rasmussen doesn’t paint quite so rosy a picture: http://www.rasmussenreports.com/
If this trend continues...
Look for Virginia (13 EVs) and Florida (29 EVs) soon to follow. Look for Romney`s likely EV total to hit 248. Soon after will likely follow Colorado (9 EVs) to hit 257. Then it`s endgame time and the all-out dogfight for OH, NV, IA, WI, NH, PA and MI (granted, the last two are longshots).
One additional thing...One FReeper posted a poll result for the extra 1 EV in ME that shows Romney up by 5%. That one represents a bit of a wildcard situation that could moot the idea of a 269-269 tie.
Right now, it looks like the R&R men are leading by half a length, rounding the final bend with the finish line coming into view.
May God see us through to a successful result.
Didn’t Red Diaper Doper Axelrod say that these numbers were all attributable to Alabama?
Before we all get too giddy, the second debate has not yet had time to sink into the poll numbers. Look how long it took the Mittmentum from the first debate to get us this far. Yes, this is good news but the stakes are too high to let down our guard.
Yes, I know he is quite conservative, and does have 'a thing' about not misleading people. And, yes, I know we are in a fairly tight race, that the media will do anything they can to sabotage GOP voters.
But - bottom line, Romney is doing better than Obama - so far, at this moment in time.
