I stand by my estimation. Romney as well as the rest of the GOP candidates have the disadvantage of other choices still being out there, regardless of what the polls say. The reality of "it's this guy or Obama" won't kick in till after the candidate is selected. THEN you'll start getting better numbers.I'd put it more at his approval rating... between 44 and 53% and dropping fast.

So they never taught you how to read a graph in Home Skule?
Obama's gone up from a low point of 42% approval in October to a 49% approval rating now.
Meanwhile, Romney's negatives are higher than his positives.
Also, I chose the approval ratings spread from all the polls, highest and lowest as a margin of error. We know most polls lean left anyway because they're more interested in being sampled, and some (like anything from a major network) is deliberately skewed that way for political reasons. Because of that, I like RCP because they show them all then split the difference. It's more likely than not the most accurate.
Do YOU understand that about polls? It seems you don't.
Oh, and in a 'blow it out your ass' moment.
