I'm tickled to see the bounce, but it will not last beyond the next debate unless Romney can go beat him like a rented mule again.
However, there is a spark of hope - two more wins, he can win this contest.

I don't know about anyone else, but oversampling is a big "no-no". Rasmnussen - the poll in question - was one of very few that is not accused of such.
But you knew that.... nice try at a strawman.

I think it is just people showing that, no matter how they try and cook the numbers thye can't completely hide all of the truth.
BTW, the meds kick in and bring your blood pressure down, finally, since the debate?
Has the drooling stopped yet?

While this is good news for Romney, in all three polls, Romney is within the margin of error -- but Romney needs to win Virginia AND North Carolina AND Ohio AND Florida just to have a chance. If Obama wins one of these states, it's over.

Purely from a personal standpoint, I never believed any of the polls in regard to Virginia. I just sense much more enthusiasm here for a Romney/Ryan ticket than the opposition.
I could be wrong, but that's just my personal take...

Are you guys kidding? Barry had tons and tons of credibility, he was the liberal messiah that was going to stop the rise of the oceans and heal the planet. The liberals believed every word.
The trick is in realizing that he deserved the credibility he had about as much as he did that nobel peace prize.

Not really. No one believes the Dems will turn out in the same numbers they did in 2008. It'll be closer to 2010.

He won by 50,000 votes here in 2008.
So, we just need 25,001 to switch.
I saw clusters around the college towns, while I'll never root for VA Tech again. Plus the usual suspects.
It's getting ugly up north here. I'm seeing too many obama signs…depressing. Its the refugees from MD, not content to have screwed up where they were, so they move here where its better and start doing the same s@$%. Idiots.

Yup -- NoVA is indeed ugly. The rest of Virginia, from Prince William and Loudoun County out (and even western Fairfax), have to hold the center.

Topic: Town meeting format including foreign and domestic policy
Air Time: 9:00-10:30 p.m. Eastern Time
Location: Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York (Tickets)
Sponsor: Commission on Presidential Debates
Participants: President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney
Moderator: Candy Crowley (CNN Chief Political Correspondent)
The second presidential debate will take the form of a town meeting, in which citizens will ask questions of the candidates on foreign and domestic issues. Candidates each will have two minutes to respond, and an additional minute for the moderator to facilitate a discussion. The town meeting participants will be undecided voters selected by the Gallup Organization.
|
Expect the questions to focus on abortion, gay marriage, illegal immigration, welfare, medicare, social security, and all of the other environmental and social issues that the Democrats love to hang the Republicans on.
Candy Crowley is an uber lib and has stated since the first debate that she thinks the moderator needs to exert more control.
John

What you've shown is that you don't know what a strawman is. A strawman is when you distort your opponents position and then argue against the distortion. I saw no one exempting Rassmussen from criticism when their polls showed Obama leading in virtually every swing state. And I see no distortion in saying that you right wingers complained about every poll being skewed, sometimes by as much as 20%.
But magically, when Willard gets in to the margin of error, all that's forgotten.

Let me get this straight. We're right wingers (I understand because we like guns and all) so you're a left winger?
Or, I bet you're a moderate centrist, right?
