Rasmussen
Poll: Romney 47, Obama 45
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows Mitt Romney attracting support from 47% of voters nationwide, while President Obama earns 45% of the vote. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided. See daily tracking history.
Eighty-five percent (85%) of conservatives support Romney, and 91% of liberals plan to vote for Obama. As they have throughout the campaign, voters under 40 tend to prefer the president, while their elders favor Romney.
When “leaners” are included, the race is tied with both Obama and Romney at 48%.

Its the electoral college folks…

Now you’re not even trying anymore…
Wisconsin. Oh right, a state every Democrat has won since the release of the Macintosh Computer and he’s there campaigning now. I wonder why?
And he goes right off to Iowa City (liberal bastion college town) after the DNC…
Oh, and shoring up support from Pimp With a Limp and his fans on 9/11, and you’re confident in how his reelection looks.
His internal polling must be awful.
But don’t take my word for it, just spend more time watching what candidates do and less listening to the MSM Obama cheerleaders.

I am getting tired of this voting against Obama and not FOR Mitt supposedly from people who want to win the White House this season. Can you put on your Happy Warrior face now and play the game, your candidate lost the primary, sad, maybe next time, and now you have to act like you are voting For America, For Something, For the Flag, figure it out, make it a positive thing, you make Mitt Romney sound like a serial philanderer, tax cheat, pot smoker, bad father who never held a job for more than a few months…can you act like he is not that bad? He is a gentleman and a good man, stop giving the opposition ammunition. Your self indulgence about being right all the time needs to end, it can’t be your way all the time, how childish is that?

Don’t worry. It’s an very small yet extremely vocal minority of contributors to this site that you’re talking about. They aren’t actually damaging.

I use the Real Clear Politics map, if you click down in the left hand corner there is an option to make the states the colors you want to make them. For instance, I immediately make NC Romney. I can get to 270 without Michigan, and I have never counted on PA because I figured there will be corruption in Philly due to that law suit that was dropped by Holder’s office.
PA elected a Republican governor last time and need to know they could help out, but I don’t know what it is like there, it may be just like NYS where McCain painted all the upstate and western counties red, but the urban areas (Philly/NYC) have so many more people it negates their vote. Perhaps they are all Santorum voters who don’t reply well to polls, but who will vote on election day. Santorum doesn’t seem to be out there helping Romney, he probly thinks he benefits from a Romney loss or an I told you so, but that would be selfish. He ought to try to deliver at least the conservatives in PA. Or maybe he is a VA resident now, and he could help out there.

You should try it, it is fun.

Perhaps the reason why you “dont [sic] get it” is that you don’t read enough or hear enough. For example, if all you read is bollocks on laughable right wing websites (the kind of places that toss around the words “Marxist” and “tyranny” in laugh-out-loud infantile abandon), then plainly you won’t, er,”get it.”
The same is true if your TV viewing is restricted to Billo and if you listen to dildo Rush.
And if most of your friends never went to college, if they are “persons of size” who always want fries with that and haven’t read a novel since that last reading assignment in high school, then of course you “don’t get it.”
News flash: most of the country does not think like you. You are a minority of a minority. Websites like this magnify your views and give you a false sense that you are part of some huge movement. But you’re not. You’re marginal.
