Another bogus poll.

(yawn)
You do realize that Civitas is a conservative organization that actively campaigns against Democrats. For those who don't know about North Carolina politics, Civitas Institute and the John Locke foundations are both pet projects of Art Pope, a conservative billionaire with ties to Americans for Prosperity, and a whole litany of conservative groups.

Let's wait for "the big poll"- the election. America is broke and unemployed and is not dumb enough to put such an inept fool in the White House for four more years. The nation was fooled once, but not twice.

Not to worry, there's much cheer to be found in viewing his lackluster opponent.

I am in Florida. I just got a poll phone call. I told them I am very sure I am voting for Obama. They also polled for the US Senate race.

The exit polls were bad, the overall polling was in the middle. Some polls had it closer than what it was, some polls had Walker winning by more. In the end Walker's margin wasn't far off from the average of the polls.

Early voting has begun in many states (Ohio soon too!) so these polls are not looking for the Romney camp. I don' think they can close the gap quick enough before the damage is possibly done.
