From a post at The Hill:

Headline for Republican Poll:

Obviously Biased and Inaccurate Republican Poll Shows Romney Ahead Even though He Isn’t

Headline for Democrat Poll:

Pesident ahead in a poll so accurate that we have decided to just go ahead call the election for Obama.

Of course RCP will post the twisted PPP polls all day long, but this one will never see the light of day over there.

Obama's Information Minister sez:


"Dear Friends, the Republicans lie to you! We are well ahead in Iowa and Wisconsin. We will crush the right-wing troglodytes next week. We will prove Nate Silver and Intrade are on the money. You will all be astonished at the President's come from behind victory! Mitt Romney is a legend in his own mind!"

I know but it’s driving me crazy! Romney is up - Obama is up - Ohio leaning Romney - leaning Obama. Romney has Florida wrapped up - Florida going for Obama. NC not in play - NC going for Romney!

AAAHHHHGGGGG!!!!!!

Ping

This is a D+5 poll and without rounding has R up 3.5 points.

This poll jibes with Rasmussen’s Ohio pol on October 29

Things are looking good!

OH seems to be trending to Romney. This with the RAS +2 poll earlier in the week, sounds good.

Someone in another thread this was posted says this was done by a Republican pollster so it doesn’t mean much

Me too.. especially when the outcome has been obvious since January.

Romney will win OH and win it handily, at least 4 points, and will win the national vote by a huge margin. The very idea this is or was going to be a close race is nonsense! McCain and Dole had more of a chance winning their runs for hte White House respectively and Obama does this one.

The whole damned thing is bread and circuses.

R is leading by huge margins folks.. fight like its neck and neck, but be serious.

Turnout isn’t going to be D+3 or even D+0 I fully expect R+3 or more will be the national turnout on election day.

I fully expect Romney’s lead with Indies to be close to 2-1 on election day.

This is going to be a blowout the likes of which a sitting president hasn’t seen since 1932 Hoover re-election bid.
