Independents have increased slightly, claiming 26.4 percent of the electorate in Oct. 2008 compared to 27.5 percent in Oct. 2012."

Rasmussen poll: More identifying themselves as Republican; Democratic identification down since 2008 | Deseret News

Romney has the independents by 6 to 12 points. The republicans are energized. What makes anyone think there will be more democrats voting than republicans? Landslide Romney.
It really was very logical the entire time. You look at a large group of polls, and you see very few that you like. You thereby assume one of the following:

*Darn! The data shows my guy will likely lose, or
*All the pollsters are wrong, except for the ones I like!

Gee, which one could it possibly be...

All these polls are wrong threads are killing me. The right-wing has gone so far off the deep end that reality itself now has a liberal bias.

The polls really weren't all that far off. If you factor in all of the Democrat fraudulent votes, they were pretty spot on.

lol@you

The fact that you honestly believe there were nearly 4 million fraudulent votes cast and there was a mass conspiracy to elect Obama is just beyond reasonable comprehension.

You're talking to Observer "Obama is dead in the water!" NY, who spent the earlier part of this year strutting around sneering that Obama supporters were drinking the Kool-Aid if they thought he was going to be elected.

Oh, the irony...

Obama is dead in the water. His approval rating is only going to go deeper in the tank with his egregious mishandling of the Mid East crisis.

Better switch out that Kool Aid for your champagne now, Obamabots. It will be nothing but sour grapes when Romney is elected.
Now, he's back to shower us with more cluelessness!

I had trouble believing Kerry could lose to Bush. I didn't know anyone who voted for Bush.
