Quinnipiac ^

Posted on 10/22/2012 7:18:57 AM PDT by chessplayer

Riding a wave of strong support among women, President Barack Obama holds a 50 - 45 percent lead over Republican Gov. Mitt Romney among likely voters in the crucial swing state of Ohio, according to a Quinnipiac University/CBS News poll released today, half the 53 - 43 percent margin he held when Quinnipiac/CBS News/the New York Times surveyed Buckeye likely voters September 26.

Anyone who votes for that worthless, ignorant POS needs to be charged for their oxygen; preferably at a rate just higher than they can afford to pay. These people are too stupid to live...

“Independent voters back Romney 49 - 42 percent.”

Not a chance with Romney up by 7 with Independents. This is the oldest trick in the polling book. Women can also be Independents.

Shame on the Shack-up Slut voting block that expects the taxpayers to pay for their six or eight children by six or eight men, none of them “husbands”. They are married to the government that provides our dwindling “stash” to their tribe in exchange for their votes.

“”In both the presidential and U.S. Senate races, the roughly 20 percent of those who have already cast their ballots said they backed the Democratic candidates by a larger margin than the overall survey respondents. Among early voters, Obama leads 54 - 39 percent, while Sen. Brown leads Mandel 57 - 36 percent. “”

Really? Sounds about as accurate as Kerry exit poll numbers.

Also I call HUGE BS on a 15% gender gap in OHIO. Why would Ohio have such a larger gap than the national gender gap?

When the hell are we going to get some numbers from Ras on Ohio... ??

Again, what’s the D/R/I sampling of this Q-Poll?

Does it realistically reflect the voting registration in the Buckeye State?

When they say “women” they are probably referring to the breeding stock for more obamaphone recipients.

KEEP WORKING like he’s 10 POINTS DOWN because when you figure in voter fraud you have to add at least 5% to Obama’s side.

Take a look at the internals, they weighted the poll +9% Democrat (D 35% R26%), when you do that you’re going to get the results you want.

you’d think that Obama’s continued destruction of the economy and jobs ... would be plenty to get women (and men) to vote for a candidate who has a better track record

Ohio polls continue to bounce up and down and it is a real mystery why anyone in Ohio would even consider voting for the man who has taken away more jobs and economic opportunities form the state than any person in American history

(not to even mention his almost daily barrage of anti-Christian, anti-American statements and actions)

There is something very, very odd (inexplicable?) going on in Ohio and we need to figure it out, right now ...

All because of one or two self-centered issues, most likely. Too bad these individuals can't see that the Dems want to control their moves. The same women who generally preach to be “independent” are the same women who opt to elect political figures and governments to hold their hands. The dichotomy is frustrating, nauseating and appalling.

Each of us here are now in the most crucial time ever. For our founding fathers, for the generations yet to come , we must save freedom. Our founding fathers gave it all to us , all that we have : can we keep the faith? The stakes couldn’t be higher . It is up to us to stop evil( obama and socialism). The forces of evil (Obama and democrats) are closing in on their goal of destroying America and freedom .
With the help of the media Obama will pull a Chavez on America and enslave us. Let those that come us after say about us that we in our time we did all we could to keep them free.

No I’m not asking you to walk 20 miles per day over frozen ground to face in battle the greatest
power in the world as our founding Fathers did in the revolutionary war. I’m asking you to do all that you can from this moment forward to the election( calls for, donations to Romney etc).

Our forefathers put up with less tyranny than Obama is piling on us . Our forefathers went to war , walking miles in bare bloody feet on frozen ground, to risk death for freedom. We could make a few calls now.Go to Romney’s site and volunteer to call people in Ohio and other swing states. Doesn’t cost us anything to save America, freedom , and our way of life. The time is now.

Obama is killing coal , oil, etc. and private companies. Just if we allowed the private sector to develop the U.S.’s unlimited coal, oil, natural gas, oil shale etc. just if the government and EPA got out of the way , energy would be the cheapest in the world for U.S. companies who could then outcompete China and other countries.

This POS Obama has closed 204 coal plants,
and done millions of other crimes,
piled on 11,000 new pages of federal regulations on business, and 13,000 pages more government regulations from obamacare coming,
did many unlawful executive orders,
6 trillion $ in new Obama federal debt etc.

you Obama get out of the United States you criminal, marxist, muslim socialist Obama.

I live in Ohio and I refuse to believe this is true.

Romney/Ryan signs and bumper stickers outnumber Obama/Biden by 2 to 1.

It’s nothing like 2008. Many of the Obama voters I know are voting for Romney or Gary Johnson.

I saw Sean Trende at RC politics state he thought it would be D+2 or 3...so essentially this poll is tied.
