Pukes, you lost Gallup ... you got nothing... well... you do have that fat, bald clown, Scottie Rasmussen...

[My Pet Goat]

1. Higher than I expected...

Job approval is at 51 today (is that correct?), so the horse race numbers will stay approx. the same for at least the next few days.

3. As The Fonz Would Say, "Correctamundo"

.

2. That's huge

A 3 point swing in one day on a SEVEN DAY tracking poll? The recent numbers must have been *brutal*...

[ProSense]

4. Yikes!

[Jennicut]

5. And Gallup is dead to them.

I was wondering when Gallup would show the #'s that some of the other national polls were showing.
And Rasmussen has it tied today. Sorry while I go have a good long laugh.

6. The Only Reason I Pay Attention To Gallup Is Because So Many Others Do

But it's just one of several polls. However, Pukes use it as a talking point. They can't use Rasmussen outside of the right wing echo chamber because they will be laughed at.

[Jennicut]

14. True. Without Gallup,

they have no credibility to say the race is close.

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

7. Rut roh, Romney (nt)

[closeupready]

8. Yes, they still have Rasmussen, and Dieboldt voting machines,

as well. We must stay vigilant, 24/7.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

12. Rasmussen switches just before elections to capture that all important "last poll" predictor prize.

[happerbolic]

15. just can't wait for those deibold state turn-outs...

...to tell us it was an overwhelming landslide for the willard team!

[berni_mccoy]

9. No one can claim this is in the margin of error (+/- 2 points).

[Third Doctor]

10. This looks great

the real poll in November is what matters though.

[The Wielding Truth]

11. Now we have to get out the vote and stop repression.

[ejbr]

13. + 1 n/t

[LakeErieLiberal]

16. I agree with this

Polls like this should be the bear minimum standard we hope to achieve. When confronted, Card Carrying Republican voters do not support an agenda that pushes more costs on seniors who've worked their whole lives, takes money out of the pocket of working families all so folks who don't work for a living and are incredibly wealthy pay even less taxes.

Republicans are finally, (kind of) "not hiding the ball" with the Romney/Ryan (Gekko/Galt) ticket. Average Americans don't want it. Let's get Repudiate the Republicans then!

17. Possibly a mathematical fallacy, but

would this mean Obama polled 21% higher yesterday than the average of the previous 6 days?

18. Don't Get Excited! No End Zone Ball Spiking! It Ain't Over

Big $ from Super Pacs still to be spent tryin to smash Obama and Democratic Senate and Congress candidates like Halloween Pumpkins! the Big Fix is on with Voter Supression, efforts to discourage people who might vote for our team in many known and unknown ways - did you see Rachel showing the Tampa Fl ballot - eight pages, long lines, shorter voting hours? Debate results? October Surprise?

On the other side over-optomistic enthusiam for our team at this point will discourage our folks to go to send in their ballots and make the effort to go to the polls, feeling like its over, Obama and local dems don't need my vote.

Not just the White House and future Supreme Court make-up for generations, nor the Senate and Congress continuing to be run by the Tea Party and other right wing facists, its the local elections to City Councils, Boards o Supervisors, or commissioners, School Boards, Water District Boards, etc.

If the Green Bay Packers had a decent lead over the Seahawks going into the last minutes of the game, that Hail Mary pass would not have happended to be decided in the final seconds by less experienced refs. Obama and all the Dem Senate and Congressional candidate need to go into November with the biggest possible lead AND the biggest possible turnout.

A lead in September, not too impressed with that, let's see where our team is on Halloween!

Don't want some biased Sec of State in Florida or Ohio deciding the election outcome the day after the election.

19. I agree with Riverman. Voter suppression and turnout are two things we need to work on.
