— CAC For Romney, per Rasmussen reports (numbers will post shortly on his site)
National: Romney 49 Obama 48 (up +1 Romney from yesterday)
Swing State Tracker: Romney 50 Obama 46
(I am being dramatic on that one-point bounce, if you can't tell. Many expected the 2nd debate to start a "comeback" story for the President, but the polling results have continued to trend against him.)
Also Gravis has a new poll coming out this morning from Ohio pegging the race a 47%-47% tie, with a D+9 sample.
Expect PPP to pull it's usual later today, though with IA, NH, and even CO releases earlier this week, who knows?
Still waiting on Mason-Dixon to, you know, recognize there is a state south of Michigan, north of Kentucky/West Virginia, west of Pennsylvania and east of Indiana. Suffolk too, for that matter. Get on the ball, fellas.

She said she saw 4 Romney/Ryan signs on her way home from school.
I wonder if that means something.

No surer proof is there that they know they have lost Ohio than already blaming a conspiracy.
So he's potential a minority owner of a company, that's a minority owner of another company that's involved with voting machines? So unless he's on the board for one or both of the companies, how is he going to rig the machines.
Ah yes. Is there nothing that magic underwear can't do.

I've heard anecdotal reports that people are getting a dozen calls a day from campaigns, push-pollers, and pollsters, and have just stopped answering their phones.
We've heard that *nationally* the polling companies are getting 9% response rate -- what's the rate like in Ohio?
Posted by: Clint at October 20, 2012 05:55 AM (IJDTs)
Considering Rasmussen's swing state tracker includes States like PA, MI and WI this is very very scary for Obama.

Because in the final week or so, these pollsters have to get real with their sample. They can't miss by 5 or 6 points.
This means a HUGE surge to Romney in the final week. Believe me, all of this bogus oversampling for Obama is 100% to show it close so Dems will vote early.

PLUS 9 for OH CAC? Good God....what will Gravis have next week...PLUS 13 to show it tied....or PPP with Plus 15...or Fox with Plus 10 or Ras will increase women from 54/46 like he is polling in OH...even though 2008 and 2010...it was 52/48...I mean even RAS is lying with his numbers. Each one to some degree is just ridiculous. Ras uses Plus Dem sample in OH as well....and more women....I am sure the ABC networks, Fox, PPP and others oversample women as well. Plus love to see that 18-30 age breakdown...most polls continue to keep that at 2008 levels even though the enthusiasm is way down and most keep the Black rate at 14 percent like 2008 even thought poll after poll shows Blacks are not as enthused this time.....more likely blacks will return to historical levels of 10-11 percent of the vote.
There are so many factors that the pollsters are using from 2008 and even some worse like Ras with his women counts. If you want to know why Akin always comes out behind in Ras MO Senate polls.....he is polling women in MO at 56/44 over men....think about that? 4 percent more than in 2008 and 2010....Ras will be embarrassed big time in MO...
Either way Plus 9 in OH is horrible for Obama....and to be tied....you would have thought by now the pollsters would have adjusted this....but now going two points to the right of 2008 and with lower Dem Registration and Absentees in OH is a joke!
Gravis is one of the worse...using Plus 7 Nationally and Plus 9 in OH.....now if you were Obama would you feel good about that? No OH is clearly up 3-4 for Romney....
Gravis, Fox, PPP, ABC, NBC and others will adjust the very last poll out before the election......we all know that....right now they want the drama!
As for PPP you are right CAC I imagine they will show in early voting that OBAMA is up in NC by 15 points or in WI by 30 points or Iowa by 20 points...they always release something ridiculous on Saturdays!

30...yes Ras is using Plus Dem 5 nationally....so is Gallup...but Ras is sampling more women and youth and that is why you see small movement.
The odd thing about Ras is that his own Party Affiliation Polling (his own!) has Republicans up 4 but he is using Dem Plus 5. I think he is trying to tack historically which surprises me because historical Dem Adv is about 2-3 percent.
Either way the oversampling of Dems will be one of the biggest stories of 2012. It will show a blantant ignorance and acceptance of reality. From Oct 30-Nov 5th pollsters will be adjusting I guess to make themselves look better.
In the case of PPP/NBC/Marist to make themselves look better....GO OUT OF BUSINESS....they are all jokes!

43 At the Corner, Josh Jordan argues that 2008 Ohio was realistically more like a D+5 turnout.
http://tinyurl.com/8jl4jlp
He's correct. And 2004 is more like R +2 not R +1. I'm not sure how some people come to the conclusion that 25-35% of people have already voted in OH. Isn't the figure that the state put out 400K. I thought that 5.7 Million voted in OH in 2008 and 2004???? something not adding up.

Does the strong likelihood of cheating in (at least) Ohio balance out the Dem + ratings in the polls? I have been telling myself that +7 through + 9 samples are weighted unjustifiably to the D's, but with the cheating I wonder if it may come to pass?

48....the Seq Poll is not being discredited it is being looked at with caution. However, the Seq Poll has one of the best track records in the State of PA. That is why the dilemna. They say it leans a little to Repubs well that does not stop PPP from polling all over the planet with its Dems oversamples and funny how that seems to only matter to the right....while any poll that shows a small R is disregarded by the Media, despised by the left and even questioned by the right, which is ridiculous. Seq has a great track record. They were the first to pick up the race tightening in PA and now 3 other polls out of PA have the race 2-4 points down for Mitt (except Seq which has Mitt up 4). But they caught the trend first. PPP originally had Obama up like 16 and that is down to 5-6. There is no question PA has tightened greatly....it just depends on if Mitt and Paul want to make the play.
I will say this the sleeper race in the Senate will be Smith over Casey in PA. He is now within 2 with most polls and up 3 in the Seq poll. He has been under the radar and covered by no one except Mark Levin. He is totally self financed.....he is using all his own money. Listen to him talk and Mr. Smith is the very essence of the Tea Party. I am really surprised how ignored he has been. Very impressive and humble man. He will beat Casey....Casey is not taking Obama references out of his speeches and more because the race has closed so dramatically.
If Mitt and Paul make a play in PA...I am convinced they could win it. Seq Poll reasons that Mitt has made up all his ground in the Suburbs of Philadelphia which is a major turn. This area is usually bedrock Dem.....not this time. Mr. Smith in his interviews has said in his polling numbers they have seen nice gains in Philadelphia as well. GO MITT and Mr. Smith!

My father, in Allentown continues to report that the Obama signage in the Lehigh Valley is a fraction of the 08 pattern.
And I am convinced, after handing out Romney signs here in Baltimore, that the decisions have already been made after the three debates, but people just aren't going public with their choices.
The Conservative Voter concern for their safety, and their property is tangible here. But the ones I talked to have been very enthusiastic about voting.

The Romney/salary thing is an old article from 2007 that is being recirculated. He hasn't talked about it this time because it plays into Obama's meme that he is rich and out of touch.
I'm still pounding the table for PA. Tom Smith has run an unbelievably great campaign. Gov. Corbett isn't real popular right now and has laid low, but his organization is out there working for Romney. What I'm seeing and hearing in Bucks County is vastly different from 2008. I'm seeing not only tons of Romney signs, but lots of homemade signs that we did not see in 2008.
There's a huge billboard on I-95 going into Philly from Bucks that says "Obama Supports Abortion And Gay Marriage...Do You?" I'm hearing Catholics are energized because of Paul Ryan and are going to surprise people. There is a stealth GOP campaign going on in the Jewish community.
I think the Romney camp must know that PA is winnable. They don't want to wake the sleeping giant and get the Philly Dem machine going into overdrive.

Now we've experienced the fact that a black man has no hotline to god or the fates and can exhibit bad traits, bad judgment and be so stupid yet be so arrogant as to defy description.
That he's appeared anti-American and pro-Muslim didn't help.
It's a shame he was the first as he was so unqualified to be and so many other magnificently and factually qualified black candidates existed (and still exist).
I blame the treasonous Media and their liberal partisanship.
They've succeeded in destroying one institution needed for a free country and almost succeeded in letting an ego maniac destroy another.

Liberals will never believe that their message was wrong, only that they had the wrong messenger.
Think about this. If Obama wins he is inheriting an economy about to go over the fiscal cliff. The Middle East is on fire. World War III could easily start on his watch. The credit card is maxed out. He has a hostile Congress. There is every indication that his next 4 years will be difficult if not a complete disaster.
And if Obama goes down, he will take Liberalism and Keynesian Economics with him. Hillary will have NO CHANCE in 2016.
So Liberals, if you truly believe Romney will fail, VOTE FOR HIM! Leave him with this mess. After 4 years of complete disaster Hillary will easily win in 2016 and you will take the House and Senate too.
Liberals, sacrifice the Obama Presidency to save your message!

My SIL is a diehard Obamabot in the Boston suburbs. I've been watching her increasing panic on Facebook talking to Rockdad. After the first debate she was apoplectic.
Rockdad also is throwing all his Obama mail in the trash. I know he'll probably vote for him but that's it. In 2008 he volunteered and went door to door for Obama.
Our son will be voting for the first time in Nashville where he is in college. ( I tried to get him to change to PA where his vote will count more, but bless his heart, he wanted to be able to vote in person!) He's happily voting Romney/Ryan and even changed his registration from Independent to Republican when he got back to school this fall. The Nashville Tennessean endorsed Romney this week, a huge deal there because it's a VERY liberal paper in a state capital with a bunch of universities and a cosmopolitan readership.

#116 The only reasons this election is close, are the same reasons Obama won in 2008: He's black, and George W. Bush.
Voters are legit concerned about giving the reins of power back to the GOP. Bush and the Tom DeLay crowd almost killed the Republican brand for a generation. People really do believe that Bush ran the economy into the ditch and also fucked up in Iraq. It's miraculous that Romney/Ryan have essentially revived the GOP in one election cycle. But there is a lot of residual damage from Bush.
I think Team Obama really blew this election. They picked the wrong line of attack against Romney and they failed to give their own people much of a reason to vote FOR them except to keep the GIGANTIC HORROR REPUBLICAN away from the White House.

To win PA:
Romney needs to win the T by Bush04 margins.
He will.
Romney needs to win MetroPittsburgh outright, McCain lost it barely by 29,000 votes while losing statewide by 10 points.
He will.
Here is the problem:
Montgomery County
Philadelphia
Delaware County
Bucks County
Chester County, which was red but went blue for Obama.
Flip Chester back to Bush04, Romney will.
Flip BUCKS county-- ?
Hold Obama down in Delaware and Montgomery Counties to <10 pts in the former and <8pts in the latter. --??
Hold Obama to 450,000 vote margin or less in Philadelphia --??
SEPA is what matters in Pennsylvania. Not Scranton, not Erie, not Pittsburgh, not State College. SEPA.

They've been thinking of how to influence everything up to the final count. And if the final count is very close, they'll try to stir sh!t up over that. (of course they will have lots of help in that case.)
First order of business for the country when RnR ascends to the White House; a complete and thorough cleanup of Media access to government and some rules that will be enforced.
That's almost as important as rescinding Obama's EOs.

Toomey barely won in 2010 by holding Sestak's margins down in Montgomery and Delaware. Emphasis on that- barely. Those counties are critical and are the source of the R's problem in Pennsylvania. Both used to be reliably Republican but that changed dramatically in the 1990s.

New Gravis Marketing poll on RCP shows Ohio tied 47-47, with D+9 sample (41 D / 32 R / 27 I)...
So, a D+5 sample should put R/R up as much as 8 (subtract 4 from O, add 4 to RR), certainly up at least 4.

CAC, you are 100% right on PA. The problem in Bucks has been liberals moving here from New York and New Jersey. That's why it flipped to Kerry in 2004 and Obama in 2008. But the recession stopped all of that and hit this area hard. The pharmaceuticals and hospitals are major employers here and have shed thousands of employees. My former employer once had 17,000 employees and is now down to 2500 and in bankruptcy. Foreclosures are still happening. Home values have plummeted and not recovered. Small businesses have closed or are struggling. The empty stores in the towns around here and even in the malls are daily reminders that the economy is not improving.
I don't know a ton of people here, because I moved here in 2004, but I can tell you that I personally know 10 voters who are switching from Obama to Romney. Many are Republicans, but here the Republicans are moderate, sort of the old-fashioned country-club Republicans. And they LOVE Mitt Romney.

#172 Yes, it is true. There have been some quiet events with Romney surrogates like Norm Coleman and Ari Fleischer at some synagogues in the suburbs. There are calling programs specifically going to Jewish voters. The Republican Jewish Coalition is running one of the only pro-Romney TV ads I've seen, and it's a really good one that features Jewish voters who voted for Obama in 2008 but won't this time. They are sending out mailers featurning local Jews who are supporting Romney.
In July or August, OFA did an event at a synagogue in Elkins Park and brought in Debbie Wasserman-Schultz. She was booed and roundly attacked over Obama's policy toward Israel.
The local suburban newspapers and blogs are reporting on these things, but otherwise nobody is paying much attention.

I don't understand? I've been asked for ID before they check me off when I vote since I've been here (2006). Same in CT.
What's the big deal about having an ID law. I always thought it was the law until states started enacting them.
What, if I hadn't had ID, I could've still voted?
Democrats; Don't want ID for voting but required ID to get in convention.
Eric Holder; ID for voting is racist or something but Media is required to produce ID to get into his press conference.
Need ID to:
Enter many bldgs.
Fly.
Buy a car.
Buy a house.
Buy a gun.
Get ID.
What's the problem?
That oldster in the wheelchair who was the PA ID LAWSUIT Victim?
Went and got ID in about an hour when the ruling came back the first time.

Republicans in PA were stupid, they should have passed the voter ID law immediately in 2011 and had it in effect for local elections last year. It would have been upheld if the state had more time to make sure everyone had ID before this election. That's the only reason it was stayed. It will be in effect next year and from then on.
Libs are whining that the state is still running TV ads telling people to get ID. The ad clearly says "you will be asked to show ID but not required to this year." They are saying that is voter intimidation. They are desperate.

There's a CKD epidemic attacking sugarcane workers around the globe. The research stipulates that the field workers' bodies are not prone to the incurable CKD attacking the kidneys. The workers are not obese, do not suffer from high blood pressure or diabetes, do not live sedentary lives, etc. typical of people who suffer chronic kidney disease (CKD).
If indeed this sugarcane epidemic is something new, not recurring from previous century sugarcane working population/environment, then by all means investigate or reveal what causal role results from (combined) newly introduced chemicals and/or genetic modifications from the modernized global corporatist industries into the sugarcane, climate and lifestyle of the worker that trigger this epidemic.
http://tinyurl.com/9xkfurg
quote:
What the men in the area have in common is they all work in farming. So Dr. Orantes thinks a major cause of their kidney damage is the toxic chemicals – pesticides and herbicides – that are routinely used here in agriculture.
“These chemicals are banned in the United States, Europe and Canada, and they’re used here, without any protection, and in large amounts that are very concerning,” he says.
But heÂ’s not ready to rule out other possible causes. For instance, the overuse of painkillers can damage the kidneys, and so can drinking too much alcohol. Both are major problems here, he says.
The Pellas Group Company spokesman Ariel Granera says if a worker is found to have kidney disease, he is let go – out of concern, says Granera, for the worker’s well-being.But the sick workers who have been dismissed say what they receive from the companies and from social security isn’t enough to live on – and when they lose their jobs, they lose the right to be treated at company clinics.

#242 The battles are all in the suburbs around Philly, Cincinnati, Washington, DC, Milwaukee, and Orlando. Obama won those areas in 2008, and combined with the massive black and youth turnout, is why he won. He's not getting quite the 2008 black turnout this year, but it will still be high. He is campaigning exclusively now on college campuses, which should tell you they are worried about the youth vote. They have essentially abandoned the suburbs. Romney and Ryan are campaigning almost exclusively in the suburbs.
Which campaign looks like it is winning?

There is one homemade one that says "ROMNEY=RECOVERY / OBAMA=BANKRUPTCY" I counted only three Obama signs on the way.

Plus the colleges will front the costs for security because they'll tap the state they're in. Something cities and towns may not be able to do.
Many cities have complained that Obama's campaign have left them with big bills for security and brushed off any attempts at getting paid.
This is all being stage managed for media affect and if we had a true free press, someone would write a story about it.
Vote Romney and Piss the Liberal Media off.

#293 that Susquehanna poll was commissioned by the PA Republican Party. It's not considered an independent poll so it won't be considered by RCP. There has been a dearth of independent polls of PA, at least on the Presidential ballot. But several polls have shown Tom Smith closing or even ahead of Bob Casey. That's a good indication that the Pres. race is close.
Don't ever believe the Philadelphia Inquirer polls. The last one they did in NJ in 2009 had Corzine beating Christie.

#304 They really, really hated Bush. These are the secular, highly educated liberals who despise the God-squad Republicans and they thought Bush was one. They also thought Bush was dumb. The Kerry-Edwards stickers simply said "I'm one of the smart set who hate Bush."
They are having a tough time in this election because Romney is more of an old-fashioned Republican that they can't hate.

I have been pounding the MSM guys on Twitter to report about all of Obama's college visits. He's been to George Mason U. in Fairfax, Virginia twice in the last 3 weeks. Nowhere else in Virginia. Romney and Ryan have done numerous rallies in suburban and semi-rural places in VA. I think the last non-college stop Obama did was in Denver the day after the debate, and the crowd was sparse and mostly black.

I was voting romney regardless, but the overwhelming number of cocksuckerish "binders of women" and other anti-romney talking points that i am running into daily on my FB page alone are enough to make me punch a ballot against the current dousche-in-chief.

They make the old soviet politboro look like the welcome wagon.
Our local office has a 1" thick plexiglass divider between them and their customers. !!!!!
I think that was a decision made in blood at some point.
And they still manage to keep being as obnoxious, frustrating, thieving and confusing as ever.
People get jobs as ComeCost clerks to practice for the DMV or Prison Guard.

Does that mean that you think the great Gallup numbers for Romney are even better than we think?

I'm getting ready to be pissed off (well, more pissed off than usual) when the economy explodes under President Romney (all that pent-up demand released, all that uncertainty and fear removed) and leftists will claim that Obama's moronic policies have finally come to fruition. If only He'd had more time ...
You heard it here first.

Preznit P Shiddy isn't who they've been pretending him to be, and the elusive, slippery truth is going to be devastating to the left it ever gains traction with the low infos.
