We can talk about the over-sampling and so on. I thought the actual poll results were interesting. You can see the complete report here (pdf file, 488 pp).

What I found interesting was this, on page 113:

Hopefully the numbers will actually turn out that positive.

The Romney campaign made what could be a fatal mistake. Early on, they let the Obama campaign have the field to themselves, and they let them get away with making it about Romney, rather than about Obama. I hope they can recover. But it does not look good.

Catholics who hope that they can say ‘forgive me Father, for I have sinned...”

Politico is a Rat party propaganda organ. They exist ONLY to keep Obastard and the Rats in power. By now everybody should know that “polls” can be manipulated to strike fear and terror in the weak minded opposition.

Point #1. This is posted in the "Religion" forum, not the "News" forum. That should give the readers a clue that there is possibly a religious angle somewhere.

Point #2. The religious angle spoken about in point #1 is shown in the OP comment to the article. Please look at the table pasted into that comment. You will note that Catholics are polling 50/43 for Romney (All Catholics, not just weekly mass-goers). That is distinctly different than the last election (where it was 52/48 Obama, by exit polls).

That's the reason for posting this article. That's the reason for posting it in the "religion" section.

What i find interesting is the jobs skew in Obama’s favor. I’ve seen this in more than one poll of late. This question shouldn’t be close considering Obama’s track record. Mind boggling.

I live in a HEAVY democrat controlled area near Cleveland, Ohio. I went to a weekday Mass recently and a woman stood up before Mass started and said there were copies of a novena in the church for a Romney victory.

Never underestimate little old ladies with rosaries.

Only 3% undecided or other at this point? I don’t think so.

I have no idea why Catholics would go for Obama. They have not forgotten the health insurance/abortion slap in the face from Barry. Bishops sent out letters condemning the situation and told priests to read the letter at mass. There was a fortnight of prayer about it. No, I do not believe Catholics go for Obama this year. They will swing R or stay home.

What is the saying, if your neighbor is out of work, it is a recession. If you are out of work, it is a depression. If you are working, it is a great economy.

A lot of the polls’ internals (not just this one) are positive for Romney. Except the summaries seem to favor Obama.

What I find really encouraging is non-whie Moms are only going for O at a 75%rate. That shows that he isn’t pulling the wool over the Moms’ eyes.

Romney’s edge with Catholics will help him in PA.
