Also, I think the Bradley-Wilder effect will be on steroids. In 2008, Obama presented himself as a self-effacing moderate who would take the best ideas of all sides and try to make them work. In 2012, we see that he's a Marxist autocrat incapable of any such thing.
Finally, the black vote. One thing will that many blacks will just stay home. Another thing is this- a small but not insignificant group of blacks will get into the privacy of the voting booth and pull the lever for Romney. They might have Obama stickers on their car, they'll tell everybody they got Obama's back, but when they think about the future of America, they'll do the right thing.
Difficult, for sure. Myself, I prefer to believe the roiling, boiling cauldron of seething anger at Obama’s ineptitude massing together in a tidal wave of rejection come November 6.
POLL-FREE WEBSITE until the election
I don’t know anything about this poll, but I’ve said this for a long long time, Obama will not and cannot get above 42-43% of the popular vote at BEST!!! And I feel he’ll have to be INCREDIBLY LUCKY to get that much.
It is not beyond the realm of possibility that Obama will even get 40% of the vote, and could be he will not get as much as Hoover did in 1938!
To throw a little bit back in this idiots face.. You can’t put lipstick on a pig.. and Obama/Biden has been the biggest hog of the last century.
I just don’t buy this guy’s methodology. I think it’s just as screwy as every other poll coming down the pike. Polls are being used as campaign propoganda...and as far as I can tell this year that’s all they’re good for.
The Bradley effect, in reverse. I like it. It's what everyone should do, anyways.
224 LIKELY voters? Have you seen the wild day-to-day swings in this poll? Come on...
OK, everybody - vote:
Poll-Free Republic: 1 (ken5050)
Free Republic: 1 (Izzy Dunne)
It’s an online poll, completely worthless.
I’ll keep my Mid-Summer’s prediction of 55% / 45%.
In the privacy of the voting booth, most voters will ask themselves:
“Do I want 4 more years of THIS?”
And the answer is “NO!”
It’s gonna be a blowout, folks. Probably the voters don’t even know it yet.
Right now comon sense would tell most folks This will be a 52-47 election right now with Romney winning 290EVs on the low side and in the neighborhood of 325EV on a good night and winning control of the Senate. Barring some bombshell on Romney or some real implosion on the Dem side, I think the polls if you look at an aggregate and weigh them properly shows this. No sane person right now sees any path to an Obama victory. Its a matter of how big right now, not an if for Romney. In about 10 days the MSM will come to realization and get real despserate for Obama, reporting any rumor on R&R no matter now outrageous.
Whatever, you/I/we believe, will only count in the final tally on Nov. 6th.. I’d rather believe we are 1% behind at the present time, and the final outcome we be determined by the extra folks that I bring to the polls on election day..
My single vote will be the determining factor in ridding this nation of the cancer that has infected our country for the past 4 years..
Our future rests entirely on my back, but I am getting old, so if you have any faith in providence, or the Murphy’s Law principle, maybe you should have a back-up plan, in the outside chance I’m wrong.. I know, right?.. :)
Twenty years from now, “Idiocracy” will been seen as the “Citizen Kane” of our time. The first ten minutes of that movie are the best summation of our culture that I’ve seen put to film.
You’re right.
"Go away, baitin'!"
