Mitt's winning Ohio

[Comrade Crapski]

Face the music, moonbats. America is sending the communist racebaiter back under his rock in Chicago.

Two new Ohio polls came out yesterday after my Ohio post, from from Gravis Marketing and PPP, both of which point to a razor-thin race in the most coveted swing state. A closer look at each poll shows just how much Romney has gained since the debates, and why he would be absolutely thrilled if these polls were accurate on Election Day.

The poll from Gravis Marketing shows Obama and Romney tied at 47 percent. But that’s as good as it gets for Obama. Among the most interesting tidbits from the poll:

Romney leads Obama by 19 percent among independents, 52–33, and holds 92 percent of his base compared to Obama’s 87 percent. Obama is underwater in job approval, 44–50, and independents disapprove of him overwhelmingly, 31–58. And the poll has a Democratic advantage of 9 percent, which is a 4 percent jump from 2008 — no one believes that Democrats can match their 2008 turnout advantage, let alone almost double it.

PPP (a Democratic firm) released their new poll yesterday showing Obama only up one point, 49 to 48. Just a week ago PPP had the race at 51–46 for Obama. But the four-point gain for Romney is even more impressive when you look at the poll’s findings:

This week’s poll has a Democrat sample advantage of 8 percent; last week’s advantage was 4. Romney gained four points on Obama in a week despite the sample’s having four percentage points more Democrats. Romney leads with independents by 7 percent, up from a 5 percent last week. Obama’s approval is underwater at 48–50, and independents disapprove of him by a 41–54 margin. Last week Obama was in positive approval ground at 50–48, and independents disapproved by a much smaller 45–50 margin. Romney’s favorability has gone from a minus-6 margin last week (45–51) to a plus-2 this week (49–47). Trust on the economy went from Obama plus-5 last week (51–46) to plus-4 in Romney’s direction this week (51–47). Independents jumped from Romney plus-5 last week to Romney plus-15 this week.

These two polls highlight what many saw in the second debate: Romney may have lost the overall debate, but he won handily on the issues of the economy, debt, and taxes. While Democrats were riding high this week after Obama narrowly won the face-off, Romney was quietly solidifying support from voters by commanding the issues that matter most. Based on these two polls, the only way Obama can win Ohio is if he finds a way to greatly surpass 2008 turnout with Democrats, which at the moment seems like an impossible task. If these polls hold, it won’t be long before the state Romney was declared dead in knocks down the last pillar of inevitability that Obama has left.

Both candidates have their work cut out for them. Obama is saving grace while Mitt is to rally a 9th inning win.

Agreed.

What I find odd is how confident both side are? It's pretty much tied with 2 minutes left and both sides are claiming that a landslide victory is within reach.

Or at least that's how it reads in this forum. I guess that it's certainly possible for either side to open a can of whoop ass late in the game. I just don't see it happening.

Pretty easy when you have a POTUS and VP who continually piss on their shoes week after week.

Holy ****ing shit. BRC's redneck comments offended people but failpuss's overt racism (on multiple occasions) doesn't garner responses (not in this thread since I know you dumb****s will say fail hasn't said shit in this thread).

**** rednecks and **** any hayseed who embraces ignorance like ****ing rednecks do.

Plus, He can't afford to wait for Congress to act. That should be terrifying to freedom loving Americans. If any R pulled that, I would turn on them, period.

Who made this guy king? Not me. Shesh, what a king, he bows down to kings.

[Calcountry]

He's even a failure as a king.

At this point 4 years ago, I knew that McCain was cooked. Because I live in the real world.

This time, I am unsure. I think it is too close to call. We have a real horse race. If Obama, just looks tough and smiles at the camera, and says forward and 47%, he can pull this out. You can do it Barack.

Nahhh I doubt it. He is a smart cat, just really angry, and reallllly misguided. He is the worst type of enemy to the advancement of our people. He doesn't realize it though, not yet anyway...
