[occupied]

Buyers remorse already? He has not even lost yet.

 

[sarahgop]

romney isnt saying ANYTHING. obama is defining him as an out of touch ultra rich guy.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

it was tied 3 weeks ago 43-43. just saw this on fox news. romney is simply not giving anyone a reason to vote FOR him.

And in many cases giving voters reasons to vote against him.

******* Conventions haven't happened yet and IDIOTS as you are overzealous because it's FOX News?

MORON.

 

[Peach]

I will not phrase this as the T did, but I agree. WAY too early to make predictions.

Given it's fox, the real numbers are likely +15, in line with Bloomberg's latest poll

I still think the Bloomberg Poll is an outlier...

And I want to see Romney get beat by double digits.

RCP hasn't posted the new Fox Poll yet. But Obama is already up +3.0 in the RCP Average and only trailing the Weird Mormon Robot in the Rassmussen Poll.

The real result is Rothschild 45 and Rothschild 40.

 

[blackhawk]

Wow suddenly Obama supporters like Fox if the poll numbers said Romney 45 Obama 40 I wonder what they would be saying. Actually I don't we all know.

 

[hjmick]

...romney is simply not giving anyone a reason to vote FOR him.

And Obama is?

Good point. I think it is too close to call.

 

[sarahgop]

...romney is simply not giving anyone a reason to vote FOR him.

And Obama is?

obama now has a record to vote for or against. given how bad things are romney should be far ahead, but romney just doesnt connect with people. romney talks in meaningless platitudes and sound bites.

Wow suddenly Obama supporters like Fox if the poll numbers said Romney 45 Obama 40 I wonder what they would be saying. Actually I don't we all know.

I think they'd be asking sensible questions like "Why does every other poll on the RCP average show Obama with a lead and this one shows Romney with one? What are they doing differently?"

That's what I'd ask.

I'm not sure if these polls mean anything because they all still show that anywhere from 7 - 15% of the electorate hasn't made up their minds yet.

At the end of the day, you'll have about 45% who will vote for the Republican and 48% who will vote for the Democrat, because without a third party in there, neither party really has gone below those numbers in the last four elections.

And then you will have that 7% or so who will vote on who they'd like to go have a beer with.

And that guy is not Willard Mitt Romney.

Really they would ask sensible questions I remember very recently someone posted the Bloomberg poll that showed Obama up by 13 points no other poll in RCP average shows anything even close to that and there were no sensible questions being asked about that poll. I think the more likely responses you would have gotten is Fox is biased it's a arm of the Republican party the standard talking points not sensible questions.

Uh no. It's more realistic that Romney wins by a comfortable margin. O hasn't done anything to deserve re-election.

 

[tinydancer]

Just a little tidbit the OP forgot to mention.

President Obama has a 45-40 percent edge over Romney in a head-to-head matchup, if the election were held today. At the beginning of June the candidates were tied at 43 percent each (June 3-5).

The president’s advantage is within the poll’s margin of sampling error.

Some 38 percent of voters say they are “extremely” interested in the presidential race. Among those most interested voters, Romney tops Obama by 49-44 percent. Republicans (46 percent) are much more likely than Democrats (34 percent) and independents (30 percent) to be “extremely” interested right now.

Fox kind of throws you off with their polling sometimes.
