National Tracking Polls: Romney +6 in Last Week

[RINGLEADER]

Strange. I thought all of these Romney gaffes had killed his campaign.

Rasmussen Last Week: Obama: 50, Romney: 46
Rasmussen This Week: Obama: 45, Romney: 47

Gallup Last Week: Obama: 50, Romney: 43
Gallup This Week: Obama: 47, Romney: 46

Given the huge pick-ups Romney makes when Likely Voter filters are applied, I'd say the Gallup and Rasmussen numbers are probably close to, if not exactly, the same.

Let's see if Obama gets another bounce from the 47% remark (doubt it, but we'll see) and how quickly that one fades...

The polls over sample Dems to Reps. by anywhere from 5 % to 13%. The latest AP poll released yesterday had 13% more dems than rep.

Obama only had a 1% lead 47-46 after an over sampling by 13%.

So, you are right, and every poll wrong. Got it.

America slashed her wrist on November 6, 2008. Will she slash the other one on November 6, 2012? I don't know, but just for the fact that I have to even ask, it's pretty much over. You can't fight reality. You can only improvise and adjust.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury. After that, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits with the result the democracy collapses because of the loose fiscal policy ensuing, always to be followed by a dictatorship, then a monarchy.

Get prepared. Try to own your home -- you don't want a bank or anyone else to be able to legally confiscate your property. If you can have a well, that's awesome. If not make sure you have a reserve. Have a years worth of canned goods and preservatives. Make sure your home is located at least 25 miles from any public housing or public transportation. have an off road vehicle and a reserve of fuel. You don't need alot of guns, just one for each family member and have LOTS of ammo.

Those are the facts Jack. Don't blame me if the polls are skewed to the max to make one particular candidate look like he is winning.

What are you going to blame when Romney gets stomped? Is it ever the fault of your precious party?

It's 2008 all over again.

First it's the polls are skewed and afterwards it will be you're cheating.

All of them? All? Fox News as well as MSNBC? Wall Street Journal and New York Times? All using methods they know are faulty?

I wonder why they even bother with the actual act of polling. Why not just publish the result they decide is going to be that day's result?

I do not see how this is possible....it seems like Obama is going to win by 5-10 points...

FWIW

One of the chief reasons the media is so mistaken in their zeal to proclaim Obama the election winner is that most of the polls they're basing their predictions on are wildly inflating Democrat turnout. The overwhelming majority of media polls are assuming an electorate that is at least as Democrat as the one in 2008, with many polls assuming a higher Democrat turnout. This is just daft. The latest CBS poll of 3 swing states is the most recent to show that GOP has a huge turnout advantage over Democrats.
