The only thing going for R&R right now is comfortable leads in Gallup and Rasmussen national polls.

LOL! And the only thing going for Angelina Jolie are her good looks too.

This narrative is turning into a joke.

All Romney has are 4-5 point leads in the two most respected national polls. And all he has is the historical fact that no candidate has ever garnered 50% of the national vote and lost. Nor has any candidate ever beaten his opponent by more than 1% in the national vote and lost.

Other than that, Romney is in big trouble.

The conventional (and only) wisdom is that Romney needs OH or WI, CO, NH, NV and IA or some combination thereof. Is there any polling that shows him with a real lead in those states? Don’t believe so. Maybe even or up in one of them, but he does not have what he needs as of now. So the national polls are good news but the states are really lagging at this point.

I believe that is the point that was being made.
