Romney Winning?

How Mitt Romney is actually defeating Barack Obama in the presidential race
"Despite all the noise created by all those media-commissioned skewed polls that appear to have President Obama leading, Mitt Romney is actually winning the presidential race as of today. The newest Rasmussen Reports Presidential Daily Tracking poll released today shows Obama 47 percent to Romney 46 percent, and shows them tied at 48 percent when leaning voters are included. The Gallup tracking poll, which is based on a sample that tends to favor Democrats by a few points, released today shows Obama leading just two percent, 48 percent to 46 percent. The QStarNews Daily Tracking Poll released today shows a Romney lead of 51 percent to 45 percent..."

  1. What a joke! Dick Morris?! He flat out said Hillary Clinton would beat Obama. He's the worst prognosticator in political history. A broken Mayan calendar is right more often than Morris.

    Interesting how Gallup is supposed to favor Democrats and no mention of how Rasmussen is the Republican go-to pollster.

    The "objection" to the so-called skewed polls is that they over sample Democrats and under sample Republicans. I suggest you read Gallup's response to this criticism.

    So everyone of you is now going to a polling site by a person who is not a professional pollster who says the polls just "don't look right". So he takes the party affiliation used by Rasmussen, the Republican-favoring pollster, and applies that to all polls, and SURPRISE, all polls now show Romney in the lead. Even Fox's poll showing Obama leading.

    But wait! Chambers' latest machinations now show Obama leading:

    "Dean Chambers, who runs unskewedpolls.com, quicky worked his usual magic on the Fox data but this time his "unskewing" wasn't enough to move the numbers in the GOP's favor. The result: Obama up by 2 points."

    The election is not over. That said, dream on.

  2. More telling are the numbers I've heard that express how most people feel the country is going in the wrong direction, or how the economy really sucks or some such negative view of the state of the nation. To then see polls showing support for the guy in charge indicates something very seriously wrong. Supposedly, Obumble was elected because people didn't like how things were going with Bush and didn't want someone like him. Now, with things far worse they're still supporting this buffoon? It doesn't make sense. How can the polls be trusted when the people who voted for Obummer the first time expressed such dissatisfaction, and now there is greater dissatisfaction about the state of the nation?

  3. Rassmussen, last election, was the most accurate pollster of them all.

    I think that is a faulty assumption. People understand how bad the economy was in 2009. People understand that there is financial turmoil in Europe that is out of our control and that has had significant effect on our recovery.

    People also understand that the president doesn't have sole responsibility for engineering the recovery. They understand that nobody could have brought the economy to where is was in early 2008 in less than four years. People have a much less favorable opinion of the Congress than they do of the president.

    People understand that the recovery is slow but it is in progress. The stock market is going gangbusters, home prices are beginning to inch up and jobs are being added. Things ARE better than they were 3.5-4 years ago.

    People don't trust Romney. How could they? He's had just about every position you could have on most issues over the past 10 years.

  5. Well here's an inconvenient truth for Obama... Should he win on November 6th, he will inherit a WORSE economy than he did in '08... and he can't blame that one on Bush.



    "People also understand that the president doesn't have sole responsibility for engineering the recovery. They understand that nobody could have brought the economy to where is was in early 2008 in less than four years..."

    Yes, they understand that NOW, but that's not the truth Obama and the Left were preaching prior to his win in '08. He and they were, in point of fact, preaching the exact opposite and more; the ocean levels would, according to Sonny Jim (Barry, that is), cease their rising-- talk about hubris! Obama claimed abilities he did not and could not have, and the Left and, sad to say, enough people on the right, believed him to ALL our detriment.


    "People have a much less favorable opinion of the Congress than they do of the president."

    Also true, but not properly qualified and/or quantified. Obama had a democratically (and a true misnomer) controlled congress. He got passed everything he wanted and more; CONGRESS got passed everything IT wanted as well. So naturally congress has a lower approval rating that the president himself. The president is a single man, and it's easier to blame and despise a group if 530-some men and women with thousands of decisions under their collective belts, than a single man. Besides which, the hatred of congress is about evenly divided between hatred of Democrats and hatred of Republics-- almost entirely by those of each opposing side for the other, so the point is near meaningless in the grander scheme.

    Congress will ALWAYS be more despised than the president, no matter who controls it.

  6. First lie: The president and the Democrats did not control Congress for the first two years. The Democratic caucus had a filibuster-proof 60 seats for only 77 days in session from July 7, 2009 to February 4, 2010. The stimulus, passed before July 7th, required help from Republicans. Obama had to scale back ACA in order to get it passed. The Republicans have managed to thwart a record number of judicial appointments. The Financial Reform Act was passed in July of 2010 requiring help from Republicans, but the Republicans in the Senate refuse to confirm the president's nominee to administer the law.

    Second lie: Obama did not become president in 2008. There is nobody in the world who can honestly tell you that the economy is worse now than it was when Obama took office.

    Wow! By what measure can you make such a bold and comical statement?

  8. Let me echo that last....

    Wow!

  9. Rather than debate whether or not you actually have even a tenuous grasp on reality, Jim, why not provide something substantial. There are plenty of intelligent and credible people who can easily explain how the economy is worse now than when Obama took office. For starters, they'll point to the unemployment numbers, the size of the debt, the lowered credit rating, the poor value of the dollar and the forecasting by some (if not many) that we are heading toward another recession (assuming we aren't still in one). So what have you got, aside from your alternate reality, that can show a different story?
