Source?

This seems to be a very optimistic interpretation. And JT seems to be one of those posters to likes to post propaganda. Probably paid.

How about CNN:

CNN.com - Breaking News, U.S., World, Weather, Entertainment & Video News

Or RealClearPolitics:

RealClearPolitics - 2012 Election Maps - Electoral Map

Or Washington Post:

Presidential Election Map 2012 - The Washington Post

republicans only say polls don't matter when their man is down. As soon as Romney ties or takes one lead in a poll, they have no problem posting them saying "looky looky Romney is ahead".

It is like the opposite of what they should be doing since the main readers of that site are already heavily right.
Exactly, Michael Moore was saying we should get used to saying President Romney. Presumably to scare the base in the voting.

It seems to be a self-defeating part of the partisan mind. It will only absorb what it wants to hear. Witness the explosion of braindead talk radio shows that never teach their listeners anything new. They just stroke their egos all day. A number of the conservative posters here seem to keep shouting that Obama is a loser and is losing, even though the facts seem to be pointing the other way.

It's not a poll. It is an analysis of the state of the election at this point in time.

The path for an Obama victory is easier than many think. All Obama has to do is win the 2004 John Kerry States (which Obama is leading in) and win New Mexico, Nevada and Ohio and he has 275 electoral votes. 270 is needed to win. New Mexico is lean Obama so that state won't be going to Romney. Almost every poll in Nevada shows Obama leading there. So it boils down to Ohio which Obama currently leads by 5 points. Obama won all three states in 2008. This Obama path to victory doesn't even inlcude other states Obama has a small lead in like Florida and Virginia.

Huh?

Seriously, do you live in an alternate universe or something? There was NO surge for Willard after the convention.

If you can prove there was, please post the link.
