edward A is the same guy who said Minnesota and Michigan were going to go red.
You keep saying that and I've never made such a claim but since you bring it up. From the AP:
Quote:
At the same time, the GOP presidential nominee’s advisers and the Republican National Committee are looking to give Romney more routes to reaching the 270 Electoral College votes needed for victory. They are weighing whether to shift resources from North Carolina, where Republicans express confidence of winning, into states long considered safe territory for President Barack Obama, including Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania
I just looked at the Florida polling. The most damning poll for Obama is in the 22nd Congressional District poll released today. Obama is winning CD-22, but only by 51-48% over Mitt Romney.
.
That 22nd district isn't an Obama/Romney poll.
It's a Frankel/Hasner poll for the House seat.
There is no Obama/Romney poll that is only for CD-22.
Voters got a good look at Romney in the last 2 debates...and LIKE what they see.
Amazing slide for Barack...he had 265 on this map on September 30th. The October surprise turns out to be how quickly Obama's support melts, and how completely the illusion of inevitability got shattered in the debates.

Romney peaked. Brag while you can because it's only going to last another few days. These polls were taken before the VP debate. The newer polls are clearly showing a Romney peak that is going away.

They are? The best I have seen is that the newer polls are holding steady.
Must say, at least there is an objective discussion of the polls going on right now. None of this "bias" baloney. They are what they are. The race has tightened. The poor first debate performance cost Obama mightily. And, I'm voting for Obama. He made a very bad first impression to the low-information/undecided voter. He certainly knows first impressions are everything. WTH was he thinking that night?
Almost none of the second presidential debate is being registered in these polls.
I am not expecting much if any change as those polls come out. Most of the post debate one change was increased support for Romney from people who were likely going to vote for him anyway. He has probably peaked as has Obama. Maybe there really are some undecideds left, but I am not too convinced. What I expect is that this will be what everyone said it would be (and Obama people briefly believed it would not be), a nail biter. Obama has a razor-thin edge in the states that matter and the better ground game but a lot of unmotivated voters. Polls can't show the ground effects very well, though early voting is a sign and is encouraging for Obama people. I guess we wait and see now.
