These are the results when registered voters are asked: "Suppose the presidential election were held today. If Barack Obama were the Democratic Party's candidate and Mitt Romney were the Republican Party's candidate, who would you vote for Barack Obama, the Democrat or Mitt Romney, the Republican?" Those who are undecided are further asked if they lean more toward Obama or Romney and their leanings are incorporated into the results. Each five-day rolling average is based on telephone interviews with approximately 2,200 registered voters; Margin of error is ±3 percentage points.

Romney 47% (down 1) Obama 44 (up 1)

FYI: Rasmussen has Romney at 46%, Obama at 45%...

Romney is NOT the candidate, and cannot win.

Dog abuser. Dog eater. Both ineligible.

Obama is toast. He should be up by double digits at this point to have a chance, as incumbants typically lose undecideds by a 2:1 margin. That he is trailing means we are looking at a 1980 type election.

I wish Gallup would ask me, “If Barack Obama were the Democratic Party's candidate and a yellow dog was the Republican Party's candidate, who would you vote for Barack Obama, the Democrat or a yellow dog, the Republican?”

My answer would be: I'd vote for the yellow dog, so I guess that makes me a Yellow Dog Republican.

Romney is not the candidate?

DRUDGE has posted a tweet that Bambi was hit with a chorus of BOOS when he appeared on the big screen at Fenway Park.

If he is booed there, he is in real trouble.

ABO, get the racist commie out at all costs.

[BfloGuy]

Dog abuser.

I know Jim doesn't want us wasting bandwidth to defend Romney, but that's just silliness.
