I wonder how long he has been sitting on this info

ALL the media, TV and PRINT, have been INTENTIONALLY keeping it close in order to build a HUGE audience because they MAKE their MONEY selling TV spots and Print ADS.

The BIGGER the audience numbers the MORE they charge for those ads.

Whatever the polls are, or are not.. it's inevitable that they ALWAYS build the suspense of the outcome by MAKING it razor close, even if it means bull$hitting the public into believing it IS, when it ISN'T. As you know, they do this CONSTANTLY with practically everything.

“Rasmussen says 12% of Republicans claim they are voting for Obama.”

I bet 1/2 of them are Democrats and liberal indie Obuggery sympathizers who lied that they were GOP voters.

COLORADO EARLY VOTE REPORT:

2008:
1,704,280 total early vote:

Dem:
37.7%
Rep:
35.9%
Unaff/Oth:
26.4%

2012: 1,707,805 as of yesterday:

Dem:
34.57%

Rep:
36.58%

Unaff/Oth:
28.72%

**Apparently, Douglas County’s numbers are not all in. (Douglas is almost 2-1 GOP and among one of the 10 largest counties in Colorado)

So, a swing away from Dems of 3.8-4.0% since 2008. How much is due to changes in GOP voting early more often? Hard to say. But with Indies (”Unaffiliated” in Colorado) breaking to Romney, it looks like He has a bit of an edge.

Indies broke heavily for Obama in 2008, not what polling indicates this year.

Early vote-by-mail ballots are still being dropped off at Election Board locations today. And CAN be dropped off at precincts tomorrow

My theory in polling has always been this...Not whether or not it`s accurate,but that the masses buy up the announced numbers.

The announced numbers become reality to the mindless massses. Pollsters know this, and is why they release phony numbers hoping to manufacture opinion.

I believe this from the depth of my being, but am unable to prove it

Wow, that is impressive. If he is anywhere close to being right, 0 is toast.

Gov. Romney is the next President of the United States. Congratulations Governor.

I sure hope the polls are all wrong. I thought that would happen in 2008 (I was delusional), so I’m cautiously optimistic.

Plus, I do not want to have to face my students’ cheers Wednesday if B.O. wins.

“and yet the media have ignored in their polls these numbers, they have ingored Libya, the economy, the negative name calling and immaturity and they HAVE IGNORED SANDY.”

The Corrupt Media is just that. A corrupted arm of the RAT party. Period. End of story (a little pun...)

Thank God for the blogosphere, radio and for Fox News (as corporatized as it is...nothing wrong with making a buck, but I just think if it’s ever possible to make more money on libtards, they will start swinging that way. As it is, they are kind of just down the middle weirdly, maybe where news orgs should be?? Is the market dictating that to them? Does news reporting objectivity have its own market value? No wonder the libtards hate Fox, as they are the only station that even tries at this. As such, they are in such contrast to the Corrupt Media to be stand outs - even if they cut pretty closely down the middle. And libtards hate that, as they’re very used to owning the entire media complex...)

“It means Obama CANNOT WIN, Ohio, Virginia, Iowa, Wisconsin, Colorado, Florida. He cannot win those states period. All conversation in that regard is pointless.”

But, but, but - what about David Axlerod’s bravado? And his reputation (heh!) and mustache are on the line!

Great News !! Unfortunately, it’s still anyone’s guess how Sandy affected this number. It’s sad but people’s party preferences shift for lesser reasons.

“Whatever the polls are, or are not.. it’s inevitable that they ALWAYS build the suspense of the outcome by MAKING it razor close, even if it means bull$hitting the public into believing it IS, when it ISN’T.”

Funny, they didn’t run with this narrative in 2008. In 2008, it was all about ‘tune in and see history!!!!!!!’ And alas, many did...and that too got ratings (to your point.)

HATE THIS MEDIA, I HNESTLY DO HATE THEM.

They have lied for years, they have been the new Dem [socialist] party talking heads.

All the issues they have been ignoring and all the attacks they do on the republican party and the constitution makes me sick.

“The announced numbers become reality to the mindless massses. Pollsters know this, and is why they release phony numbers hoping to manufacture opinion.”

This brings in the theory of the sheeple. Many are too busy (I’m being kind), or too stoooopid (OK, perhaps a bit unkind, but warranted, right?) to check past the top lines. Either way frankly, pathetic, and a far cry from, ‘Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.’
