New Gallup Poll: Romney Leads Obama

The latest Gallup poll has Romney over Obama 47% to 45%. It looks like it's going to be a horse race. With the economy continuing to languish, Romney should be able to pull it off. Obama, himself said, that if he couldn't turn the economy around in three years, he wouldn't get re-elected. This Gallup poll is based on registered voters. That type of sample group tends to inflate Obama's support.

Joe the Bloehard, please give Whirly a call when Romney reaches 270 electoral votes in the "very respectable" (current) RCP Swing States analysis. Currently, Romney is only 126 electoral votes behind Obama. Once Romney crosses the 270 electoral vote threshold, I feel certain that Whirly will immediately share the info with the rest of us! Why? Because the info will be coming from a "very respectable" source, of course!
Bigtex never learns I know more about these things than he.......read what I posted about polling in the Walker recall, and Bigtits dumb observations....he was pimping some story about Armageddon for the tea party in Wisconsin.....

Let me explain US politics to you all. The national poll matters not. Our system is 50 different contests. In 4 of the 5 battleground states Romney is leading now and Obama is tied in the last. Of course 44 of the 57 states had unemployment go up this month and only 1 had it go down.
