"A new poll from the Pew Research Center found Obama with a three-point lead over Romney nationwide. Less than a week earlier, the same poll had the two candidates tied at 47 percent. But, by Sunday, Obama was ahead, 48 percent to 45 percent."

New Pew poll shows Obama in lead as he and Mitt Romney make final push toward Election Day - The Washington Post

What a difference a week makes..Shout out to two Republicans, Colin Powell and Chris Christie for solid endorsements of the President this week!!

Most polls show Obama ahead. Obama's poor 1st debate let Romney catch up but now he's losing it.

At this point, you're safe to concentrate on Tuesday's poll.

This is nice but honestly the national polls are meaningless. The only count which matters is the electoral college count and Obama has ALWAYS been way out in the lead on that. Romney has NEVER had enough electoral votes to win, never.

It has never been a close race when someone looks at the only vote which counts, the electoral vote count, and that's why I've been laughing at the media for trying to boost their ratings by claiming it was some how a close race. The vote which counts has ALWAYS been very lopsided towards Obama.

The sad thing is that Romney is getting support by lying. Of course all politicians lie, even Obama, but I've never seen anything like this in my life. Romney has no shame. He will do/say anything for votes. I thought of this just now because I was on a website with a banner ad "Stop Obama From Banning Guns - Join Romney/Ryan Now!"

When did President Obama pass any bill to ban guns? In fact, he has signed a couple of bills on guns and they were to expand the rights of gun owners.

Yet, if you ask someone "Why are you voting for Romney" many people will say "I don't want to lose my 2nd Amendment rights!"

So many lies, so little time to debunk them.

I agree, although it's still very close. I only hope President Obama also wins the popular vote or we'll never hear the end of it, even though Bush lost the popular vote. Actually, I believe Bush also lost the electoral college, but that's a whole different story. Obama should get the popular vote, but there are a lot of people in NJ and NY who might not get to the polls on Tuesday.
