WI just went from toss up to leans Obama giving Obama 231 solid EC votes! Check out the map.
I am sure you would rather this not be brought to your attention, but here goes anyway: 1-the latest poll you are showing is over a week old: 2-all three of the polls are very, very, very liberal leaning and most of all: let me give you an example of just how much credence any of us should put into polls: a couple nights ago, we got a call from New Mexico, it appears we are still registered there, even though we vote here and have lived here for over 4 years: anyway, the pollster asked my husband who he would vote for if the election was today. He was given 3 choices, he said the third name, of course he has not intentions of voting for that person, but he said it anyway. Now, we know two things, one: polls are anything but accurate and we need a voter ID card. If we have changed our registration, have let NM know more than once and we are still on the roll don't you think something needs to be done...??
Well, our local paper reported within the past week or so that Romney Campaign spokesman said it's not spending any serious money in WI anytime soon. Danced all around why they weren't spending, boiled down to they didn't think it was a priority. I thought it very odd of them to make that statement at this time. Sounds to me, they've written off the state. Their internal polling must be showing something.

This thread reminds me of the infamous "Scott Walker is going down" thread.
Uh, huh!
Keep dreaming.
Uh....... but, but, but, Walker was always ahead of Barrett by 5-10 pts in the polls. Always.
So, I guess this time, all the polls are wrong and by some perverse reverse logic Obama leads by 6 points, but he's gonna lose? 'Splain how that computes?
If that makes feel better then thats fine with me but it looks like mittens lies and shadowy behavior are catching up with him. If below 50% is so bad for Obama why is mittens not pulling away with the race?
Below 50% is good if you take into consideration the public who don't vote for whatever reason (its their right either way) and of course, those who haven't made up their mind.
Using %'s is misleading since the population of the "voting public" fluctuates with each elections. All I know is old people ALWAYS vote and people my age are lazy and apathetic so its really our fault if Romney gets elected.
