    It wasn't supposed to be like this at this point in the election cycle.
    Obama pollsters had predicted an easy Obama win in Ohio weeks ago.

    But now Internal polling reportedly shows Romney ahead in Ohio and Rasmussen is starting
    to confirm this fact today:


    A new poll shows Mitt Romney 2 points ahead of President Obama in Ohio, in the latest survey showing the vital battleground contest tightening and too close to call.

    The Rasmussen Reports poll of likely voters had Romney slightly ahead at 50-48 percent. The lead, though, was well within the 4-point margin of error -- the results effectively reflect a virtual tie in the Buckeye State

    The Obama campaign is in a state of panic as Romney gains momentum and voters
    flock to Romney!

    Oh, Rasmussen...whew!

    That probably means that President Obama is at least 6 points up.

    Every poll in the toss up states is within the margin of error, which means the only deciding factor will be turnout on Nov 6. Who has the advantage there? Which side is actually more energized?

    Unfortunately for you, Rassmussen was the most accurate pollster of the 2008 election. But now he's got it all wrong????

    Why argue about this? The election is days away. If people think their guy is going to win how come you guys haven't taken out a $3,000 loan and made some easy money on Intrade?

    They may think that in Europe but then look at Greece, Europe thought
    Greece was a good investment. Of course they were wrong!

    Did you notice how the liberal media is now running stories about how America
    is racist and may cost Obama votes.

    They stories are gonna be the basis for an excuse as to why Obama lost in Ohio and elsewhere.

    Just watch out for the bogus excuses when Romney wins it all.

    I don't care what the media is saying. sammy, if you think Romney is a shoe in go over to Intrade and put $3,000 on him to win it all and make some easy money. You obviously aren't going to do that because you know the race is a toss up. Everyone on this forum is so transparent. Put your money where your mouth is if you are so confident. If Romeny wins you win big. The payout is much higher than if you bet on Obama and he wins.

    What's interesting is, Rasmussen may be oversampling democrats. If the new Gallup and Rasmussen numbers are correct about turnout, we may see the biggest landslide since Reagan's. We're talking about a 9pt swing in turnout from D+7 to R+2. If that happens I would imagine the GOP takes the senate and house in filibuster proof numbers.

    So can I assume that $3,000 bet on Romney is to match the one you've made on Obama?

    You got that right. According to many coservative "experts" here, Obama should be 20 points behind in the polls.

    Romney is way ahead among independent voters.

    Independents will make history by voting for Romney and real change!
