Of course this is a popular vote poll.

However, when NBC’s Chuck Todd shows the electoral college each week, Obama has a significant lead

They are basing the Electoral College projections on seriously flawed polls.

1.I am no believer in these, the electorate changed their mind in the last week stuff (turning a Carter landslide into a Reagan landslide; turning a Bush is doomed into a pretty comfortable victory in 2004). Fool me a dozen times, shame on you…
  1. Clinton was a pretty popular guy. He wouldn’t have been President if it weren’t for Perot. And with all due respect to Obama, he wishes he was nearly as good of a politician as Clinton was.
 
I thought Obama had a double digit lead last week and Romney was toast or at least that is what the “news” was reporting.

I put this up simply to show that the race may be closer than “other polls” show. Scott Rasmussen nailed the 2008 election, so his polls might yield greater credibility.

Right now Rasmussen is the only poster I trust.

I’m following most closely the polls from battleground states, which will determine the electoral vote. Every indication I’ve seen shows Obama with a commanding lead in the likely electoral votes.

Of course, anything can happen. Maybe Obama will check his watch (G. H. W. Bush), sigh a lot (Al Gore), or otherwise say or do something that will hurt him, or Romney will tell us what tax breaks he’s going to get rid of, which will shock the public and hurt him with voters. As I said, anything can happen.

We can hope that Obama gets a ‘Joking’ Joe Bidin mouth transplant about four weeks before the election. :cool::)🤷
 
Here are reasons to vote for Romney and not keep it close, regardless of the polls, which are also being ‘fixed’ in most cases by the liberal left. Read it and weep (literally, for our beloved country) …Obama has been and will continue his crusade against Christianity in a second term, and must be stopped. Anyway he had his four years and did nothing for the economy - time to try someone new.

Wow! I visited the website you mentioned. The site includes many transgressions by the Obama administration over the years.

Yeah, except the list is not factual and leaves out information that changes what is actually meant.

As an example, the alleged reason for the monogram of Jesus name being covered. It was already explained that whenever a president speaks, the backdrop curtain would be placed behind him and that no symbols or posters are to be viewed as if the candidate were endorsing that item or what they represent.

All the presidents in modern times have done this.

Can you provide a photo of when George Bush went to Notre Dame and the monogram being covered?
According to a Georgetown spokeswoman, Julie Green Bataille:

“In coordinating the logistical arrangements for yesterday’s event, Georgetown honored the White House staff’s request to cover all of the Georgetown University signage and symbols behind Gaston Hall stage.”

“The White House,” she added, “wanted a simple backdrop of flags and pipe and drape for the speech, consistent with what they’ve done for other policy speeches.”

Turns out, the usual movable drapery barriers were not tall enough to hide the cross and IHS emblem, a traditional Catholic abbreviation for the name of Jesus Christ. So the school agreed to cloak the entire wall structure with the religious symbols.

Says nothing of this being done previous for presidents
