Seriously. I think he just likes getting a rise out of liberals. I don't get his stupidity. He's not even a Republican.

1. The media

makes me sick!

2. Your linking his crappola and talking about it

He's getting hits and you're helping. That's what its about.

I read somewhere else, DailyKos maybe, that the bogus Republican biased polls are coming.

There was one today that had a sample size of 300.

3. Yup, they want you to keep going back to check if it's different again

up goes the hit counter, and you just might click through.

4. Huh?

So, because polls have shifted over a MONTH, he's deciding NOW to move it to toss-up status? Does he only do this monthly? Because while the polls are worse for Obama than at the start of October, they're better than when he was at on Oct. 10th ... and the best they've been all month.

5. They've been moving the goalposts since Denver

Romney's post debate surge is juxtaposed against Obama's unrealistic late Sept. poll numbers. Polls that would have tightened anyway have been labeled a surge by Romney to feed the horse race narrative.

6. Who Cares?

The only difference between him and any of us is he has a larger megaphone.

7. It went back to "toss-up" at TPM, too...

...but only because of an ultra-dodgy poll showing R+3 there, put out by Republican pollster Wenzel for Citizens United (and, no, I'm NOT making that up), whose internals suggest the poll had been taken at a Mittens campaign rally. Even though Josh Marshall thinks the poll is garbage, policy requires him to include it in the aggregate. You'll probably see the same from 538 and PEC, so expect each of their re-elect odds to dip slightly this evening.
