Romney Takes Lead in Ohio as Obama Campaign Panics

Well, my state is a battleground state too. Let's see what is going on here.

President Barack Obama has significantly expanded his lead in Wisconsin, and U.S. Senate candidate Tammy Baldwin has overtaken challenger Tommy Thompson, as the campaigns enter their final days, according to the Marquette University Law School Poll released Wednesday.

The survey shows Obama up over his Republican challenger, Mitt Romney, 51 percent to 43 percent, a large shift in a race that just two weeks ago was seen as a dead heat.

Democratic congresswoman Baldwin leads 47 to 43 over former Republican Gov. Thompson. <snip>

I'm so glad this election is almost here. This is better than Superbowl Sunday.

 

Internal Obama Camp Polling has Romney up in Ohio now.

Sixteen percent (16%) of white Democrats now support Romney.

The American surge continues as Romney crusades to victory.

 

Another biased poll. :

This after you elected a Republican Governor who defeated a recall and a Republican majority in your State Assembly and Senate.

Not to mention that the poll was taken BEFORE the last Senatorial debate.

You really need to look deeper into the articles you cite.

 

WHO took over as Gov. in Wisconsin after the Democrats "recalled" Walker?

WI will go Romney. Madison is stupid, but the rest of WI has good sense.

That recall must have been terribly shocking and embarrassing for you. Nov 7 is gonna hurt BAD!

 

Karl Rove and Dick Morris both predict Romney wins Ohio.

These two dudes are rarely if ever wrong about their polling data.

 

Nate Silver has Obama winning Ohio at 73%. His predictions are better.

 

The Teflon coating broke and fell off b.o. in the first debate. All the Kings horses** and all the Kings men couldn't put it together again.

** and bayonets.

 

Rasmussen has Obama winning the early vote by 10 points but still losing 50-48% to Romney in Florida. It's not lag time, either. Rasmussen's poll was taken last Friday. The actual early vote count showing Democrats only up 2% was released yesterday. So it looks like a bigger point spread in Romney's favor.

This has the Obama campaign folk swearing at each other.
It ain't just Ohio that Obama is now losing.

 

54 percent tell Gallup they expect Obama to win, compared to 34 percent for Romney.

and from yesterday on slate.com

 

Um... the post you responded to was made *before* the National Journal poll hit RCP.

With that poll, Romney's lead in the average is down to 0.2%.

 

Obama's recent surge in Wisconsin is being reported on all the Milwaukee news channels today sir. And I would hardly call a Marquette University poll anything but valid.

I'm sure you would have more respect for their poll if it favored your candidate. If I were you, I would just stick with Rassmussen. They will make you feel real good. Warm. Fuzzy.

 

Check the RCP averages in the battle ground states. I hate to have to be the one to break it to you fellas....

If the election were held today... well, I don't want to be a spoiler...

 

You are far from being a spoiler. You are a mere nusiance. Less than a flea.

 

I cited why it was a biased poll. You continue to ignore recent developments and keep the blinders on. I don't care when the ******* press reports it's agreed to talking points. They are irrelevant.

 

Hey man, Flea's a pretty accomplished bassist. I'll take that as a compliment.

What poll? What the hell are you talking about?

First, RCP is a CONSERVATIVE site. Second, the RCP average is NOT a poll. It's an AVERAGE of the mainstream major polls INCLUDING Rassmussen.

Geeze.... no wonder this country is in the shape it's in. They just let anybody vote.

Oh well. It's America. Gotta love it.

 

I would call a Marquette University Law School poll comic relief.

 

RCP is NOT a conservative site. Marquette Law School MOST DEFINTIELY is a Leftninny site.

 

"Leftninny site?" And I'm supposed to take this post seriously?

 

Dude! Seriously?!?! Get a clue.

But don't get your panties in such a bundle. You know as well as I do those same RCP poll averages might show Romney in the lead tomorrow. The pendulum is in constant motion. It has topped out on the Romney side and now heading back towards Obama. The question is, will that pendulum get enough momentum in the next four days to close the deal for Obama?

Stay tuned!

 

Liberalese:

If a poll shows b.o. ahead, its a good poll. If a poll shows Romney ahead, no matter how old and respected the pollster is, its a radical right wing site.

10/30

Fox tie known radical righty.

Rasmussen Romney +2 also right radical

ABC tie brand new radical right wing site

CBS b.o. +1 good respected truthful poll

National mjournal b.o. +5 also a good respectred pollster.

Pew tie lousy right wing nuts

Gallup Romney +5 radical right winger.

NPR Romney +1 Former liberal, now radical right wing nutjobs.

IBD/TIPP b.o. +1 good old respected pollster.

Politico b.o. + 1 good old respected pollster.

RCP AVERAGE of all major pollsters , tie, an obvious radical right wing nut job site.

The battleground states where b.o. does lead, he is within the margin of error.

Ties are BAD NEWS for the incumbent. Leads within the margin of error are BAD NEWS for the incumbent.

 

Here is Rasmussen's recent record in OH:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/oh/ohio_mccain_vs_obama-400.html#polls

Here are the very similar polls today:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/oh/ohio_romney_vs_obama-1860.html

Here is Rasmussen's record in 2010:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/2010_generic_congressional_vote-2171.html

Only Gallup and Fox News were worse.

There appears to be a systematic bias in these organizations (for Gallup, that bias is more recent).

 

Any poll one does not agree with is biased.

It don't matter which one it is.

If you do not already have a Rasmussen Reader account, subscribe now.

Platinum Members have access to detailed demographic information.

In the 11 swing states, Mitt Romney earns 50% of the vote to Obama’s 46%. Two percent (2%) like another candidate in the race, and another two percent (2%) are undecided.

Romney has now led for 12 straight days with margins of four to six points most of that time.

In 2008, Obama won these states by a combined margin of 53% to 46%, virtually identical to his national margin.

The poll in this post , Brainiac:

Maybe someday you could at least get enough of an attention span to debate me.

RCP is in no way shape or form a conservative site of any kind. Neither are you. Stop lying.

 

I'm in Ohio right now and it doesn't seem that way.
