There is even another respectable poll that has been done today, I forget the
name for I am not on my computer, but it shows Obama with 30 electoral college
votes ahead of Romney, that is too much ahead. Now electoral college votes are
very important in an American election that is why I was interested into this
poll. And you are right an incumbent is almost impossible to dislodge for GWB
was honestly a beatable president.

Almost impossible to dislodge an incumbent going for his second term. Whoever
thought George W Bush would beat Kerry in '04? The economy was just staring to
nose dive, our security was a mess, and, all over the World we were back to
being labeled as the Ugly Americans. But Bush Jr. carried all (as in ALL)
swing states: Florida, Ohio, etc.
Current president has really done a good job on security, the economy is
starting to climb up.. why change horses?

Ni James,
Romney & Co are in dreamland and they know it. The are claiming a FAKE
momentum that does not exist. It will be a close contest but President Obama
will win
RE-election. The REAL poll is that of Tuesday, November 6. When all is said
and done, we'll be popping the MOET champagne - although I do not drink
alcohol, once in 4 years will not kill me right away. Yes, I will drink a
bottle of MOET by 9pm on November 6. You heard it here FIRST.

Mitt Romney's momentum: An illusion conjured by his campaign?

Some liberals are aghast at how the media seems to be accepting Team Romney's
assertion that it's winning the election
Here's something you may not know from reading the political press, says
Jonathan Chait at
<http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2012/10/romney-says-hes-winning-its-a-bluff.html>
New York: President Obama is winning, Mitt Romney's rise in the polls stopped
two weeks ago, and Team Romney's "downright giddy" claims of election-winning
momentum "is a bluff." A few head-fakes about leaving battleground states
supposedly in the bag, vague talk of expanding the map, and lots of bluster
about inevitable victory — "Romney is carefully attempting to project an
atmosphere of momentum, in hopes of winning positive media coverage and, thus,
creating a self-fulfilling prophecy." And it might be working. With the
national polls tied and Obama enjoying a clear advantage in the electoral
college math
<http://www.nationaljournal.com/columns/off-to-the-races/will-third-debate-change-the-electoral-math--20121023>
, Romney and his allies seem to be successfully "suckering the press corps
with a confidence game." Is Romney's momentum a clever ruse?
The shameless spinning is tricking the media: Even after Obama's wins in the
final two debates, the highly crafted tale "is congealing... that Romney is
going to win the election," says Michael Tomasky at
<http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/10/23/reality-vs-reality.html> The
Daily Beast. Of course, "in reality, Obama is the favorite." But give credit to
conservatives: "They are creating a reality," and have been since the first
debate. Feed reporters "a few poll results, a few morsels from the trail," and
many will parrot your line. The real goal is to "make Democrats fearful and
jittery and reactive," so Dems should calm down and reassert reality.

Maybe Obama is losing steam: "Can't two things be true?" says David Weigel at
<http://www.slate.com/blogs/weigel/2012/10/23/how_real_is_mittmentum.html>
Slate. Can't Team Romney be "overstating its momentum" while at the same time
put him in a position to actually win? After all, they knew Obama's strategy 14
months ago — paint Romney as a heartless plutocrat — so all they had to do was
defuse that in the first debate. They did: While Romney's poll numbers are just
okay, "the numbers beneath the horse race" show that his likability numbers
really have surged. "If voters have largely warmed to you, all you need to do
is win the 'momentum' storyline" to seal the deal.
<http://www.slate.com/blogs/weigel/2012/10/23/how_real_is_mittmentum.html>
"How real is Mittmentum?"
The expectations game is bipartisan: Of course Team Romney is spinning the
media, says Ezra Klein at
<http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/wp/2012/10/23/mitt-romney-wants-republicans-confident-president-obama-wants-democrats-scared/>
The Washington Post, that's what campaigns do — execute messaging "strategy
bound loosely by reality." And Team Obama is doing it, too. The difference is
that Romney is "emphasizing momentum" while Obama's side is underscoring how
tight the race is, "how possible it is that the president might lose." Why?
Psychology. Republicans won't vote if they're losing and Democrats won't vote
if they're winning, so "Boston wants Republicans confident and Chicago wants
Democrats scared. Keep that in mind as you read the spin."
