Romney Now Back Within M.O.E. in Pennsylvania and Michigan.
— CAC

First Pennsylvania, Obama 47 Romney 45.
Now Michigan, Obama 49-Romney 46
MAKE THAT 2 MICHIGAN POLLS: EPIC MRA OBAMA 48 ROMNEY 45 (WAS OBAMA +10 LAST MONTH)

Go after them Mitt. You know you want to. At this point, spread the pain for Obama. Meanwhile I am pleased with the return of my white whales...

Added lulz: Markos now tweeting his sites' weekly poll (with SEIU) by PPP finds Romney up.

How many families were destroyed on the altar of socialism? How many otherwise strong marriages collapsed under the weight of financial ruin, lost jobs, lost homes and lost hope? This is all so sad and so unnecessary just because one person who had mommy and daddy issues became POTUS and decided to take out his hatred and disgust on our country.

It's like a bad dream.

67 Of the 13 battleground states identified in the model, the only one to change in the update was New Mexico -- now seen as a narrow victory for Romney.

69 Imagine if the MarxSpewMedia had pursued Barry's illegal campaign donations in 2008-9. Just a wee little bit in 2008 such that it was a more close race, then trying to reclaim some standing after their obvious partisan bias by running even somewhat soft stories on it in 2009. How much Barry sabotage to the USA might they have prevented?

At this point I just want the MarxSpewMedia crushed. If there is any start-up for conservatives to buy a network I'll put every spare cent I have into it.

76 I wonder how much of this is an actual bounce versus reporting numbers that have always been there. When they were eager to push the meme that Obama was cruising to victory, they would just use plus double-digit Dems to make that number look that way, in hopes to turn that illusion into reality via Republican depression of the vote. Now that the poll's reputation is on the line, they need to be more accurate as election day approaches, so they use the debate as an excuse to close the gap.

78

This is a coordinated effort at a "long game" for the Dems. They will show a HUGE Romney bounce (Dem polsters using an R +3 split?? REALLY???), only to show a MASSIVE SWING TO THE PRESIDENT after the second presidential debate.

It's all smoke and mirrors. Problem is, they can trigger a preference cascade by showing too big a shift to Romney, like the mocha hottie that just tweeted her swimsuit pic and support of Romney.

She's already being called a race traitor, but it's just an indication that young, pretty, minority actresses are even feeling liberated enough from the Hollywood groupthink to give Romney some love.

I'm positive Romney is leading and is going to win, but this is a new coordinated effort of the dems to try to shift the narrative immediately before the vote.

Beware, my co-conspirators, beware.

88 "56 These were taken at the height of the debate bounce. If you took them again now, Obama would be ahead comfortably. ^^^ Feel free to prove that," Just look at what Rasmussen is showing. He had the debate bounce put Romney up a few points and then the jobs numbers came out and Obama won both Saturday and Sunday's samples. The debate bounce disappeared immediately. If Obama goes back ahead tomorrow in Ras, Obama has regained solid control of the race and the whole debate story is null and void.

I concur. This poll from Pew is merely a setup to show a HUGE momentum shift back to Obama with a Dem +10 sample. I have seen Gallup do this same game over and over. Obama would sink to 43 approval rating only to explode back to 52 within a week for no reason at all.

100 >>They will show a HUGE Romney bounce (Dem polsters using an R +3 split?? REALLY???), Why are you surprised by this? Rasmussen has noted that Republican registration has surged to over 37% this year and leads Dem registration. Republicans lead the enthusiasm gap by double digits in almost every poll. In 2000, the party ID gap was 0%. Romney just beat Obama in the debate by the biggest margin in history. There's no reason that Romney can't draw a Rep +3 this year if he keeps on keeping on.

If that happens I will spend all day just watching MSNBC in an orgy of schadenfreude.

If that happens, I fully expect there to be many furrowed brow and long face discussions about how the Founders did not intend for there to one party rule and that this is clearly, clearly against the spirit of the Constitution and is a danger to the health of our Republic.

Joey shows up on a toy train from an amusment park, toot-toot. Paul busts through a wall without a shirt on to Rock and Roll music.

The animation shows Ryan stealing Biden's cane and beating him about the head and shoulders with it as the narrator talks about the stupid shit Joey says. Then the animation shows Ryan body slamming Biden when the narrator talks about Ryan's devastating response.

Then Ryan slaps the moderator or some audience member that interrupted the debate and finally wheels off in a Harley, with Mrs Ryan looking hot and an American flag flying off the back of the Harley.

Depends on the state. Most liquor stores are closed in the South because the ole democrat machine would buy pints to give out to "those people" to vote.

Actually, boozing up voters has a long tradition. Look at George Washington's expenses for his first run for the House of Burgess. All beer and rum.
