Another robo poll as they all have been so far and one that has a history of leaning right in its LV voter filter as well as being all over the map like We Ask America. Rasmussen robo is more stable but has a "house effect" as well maybe due to the fact that only land lines are contacted in robos. No doubt there is a bounce, though. I do think CO is very close. CO has a lot of bible belt types that are suckers for the Republican messages and there is a built in 2% or so with the Mormons this time. NV and Ohio will decide the race - if Obama wins both he wins. Everything else is icing on the cake.
Woah!! Just checked RCP this morning. Romney is on fire!!!
Remember a few weeks ago when Dems were saying the race was over? I knew they were going to end up embarsassing themselves and they did!
Romney/Ryan 2012!
Wait until the 7.8% unemployment issue is reflected in the new polls. Obama is adding jobs and the economy is picking up. Obama already proved he can add jobs...so why risk Romney when Obama is a proven commodity.
Then the VP debate is next week and this will expose Ryan's hard-right issues.
Obama's gonna win. Romney will be hard pressed to get 200 delegates.

Agree. Obama is really still in front in Ohio regardless of the robo polls and Obama has a GOTV effort in that state that would make your head spin. Obama will take at least one other swing state (I say NV) and that is all he needs in addition to his strong leaners. The electoral math remains nearly impossible for Romney. Never say never, but no worries here.

I think Obama hurt himself badly with the debate performance. It may be fatal to him unless he performs much better in the next debate.
Yes, he did. In this election, the debates WILL matter. Obama better act like he wants the job, next time. And this is coming from an Obama voter.

With lie, after lie, after lie. But it is not what is said, it is how it is said. Romney won in the "how" department. After all, a lie repeated often enough and convincingly enough, becomes a "truth."
This is probably Romney's best week of the campaign - a far cry from the last two weeks of September.
I am unsure that the VP debates will matter a lot UNLESS it is another one-sided affair like last Wednesday. But I have no doubt that Obama will come back - hard - in debate #2. And the Romney campaign no doubt has to be anticipating this.
By the way, now we have 'robo call' polls when they show Romney winning, yet some of these polls (WeAskAmerica) were hailed before as accurate when they predicted Scott Walker winning in WI and showed Obama way ahead in NV and WI.
