PPP trying to troll,but yes it done.
The Obama campaign is pushing this hard. I don't think Romney is doing so (Then again, he was trailing all summer with negative stories)
Also, a lot of folks like voting on election day.

So while the media keeps fucking that national horserace chicken, Obama is slowly eating at the electoral map below everyone's radar. Like he did with delegates.

Exactly... Clueless fucks won't realize until it's too late.

They will not accept any blame among themselves for losing (save for thinking, later, that Mitt wasn't "conservative enough"). It's going to be election fraud and Black Panthers all over again.
Saying people who make a quarter-million dollars a year aren't rich isn't making sense. But, I'll forgive him because he's advocating taxing millionaires more.
I don't have an Obama bumper sticker for just that reason.
It sounds like she meant she wouldn't be campaigning for Mitt again. Not that it would be an option. Republicans will give it to the runner-up, but they don't go back to the well twice.

What parallel universe have we entered where I have Republican friends retweeting PPP's twitter?

This is a very good question; perhaps the republican party does not believe in that form of GOTV, and instead relies on private institutions like churches to bus seniors to the polls. An OFA affiliated group bussed my grandma's entire retirement home to the polls in 2008, and they all voted for Obama; it's a predominantly black retirement home that is run by Greater Grace Temple in Detroit.
Having the campaign (or campaign affiliated people) herd voters to the polls is clearly a superior GOTV device. Given how conservative the elderly are, you'd think the GOP would be more active in this regard. Perhaps they do it in Florida..
anybody watching tonight's internet debate between Stein and Johnson? heh

Even better. I won't be able to put up with being in the South if Romney wins.

Romney needs 61% of election day voters by those numbers.

Based off quick math I did, Romney needs to lead the election day voters 60% R - 35% O
Dont try.
I'm about 24 hours behind, trying to catch up.
I'm seeing Gallup +7 +puppies/sunshine
AND
Early voting in swing states that strongly favor Obama.
What's going on here? Are Gallup's likely voters only ones that haven't voted yet? Are we living in a leftist bubble?

From what everyone can tell it is probably their new methodology. If their shit was legit every other poll would be showing the same stuff.

Yup.
Basically he needs a 5 to 7 point bump in late voters...which can only happen if something the magnitude of first debate fail by Obama repeats and/or terrorist strike.
Even Gallup with its large Romney lead has Obama in the lead everywhere but the south.

Gallup is a clear outlier at this point. Nationally anything from Obama +2 to Romney +2 is what everyone else is showing and more in line with what everyone believes.
Yup told you guys, but I am sure there will be a few here who will still shit themselves as "TIGHT POLLS" come in everyday till the Election
Good news for Romney? Am I doing this right?
I love - and I'm not being facetious here - how Silver typically comes to very common sense conclusions (ie, Gallup looks like an outlier and therefore probably is) and backs that conclusion up with heaping piles of data. His posts are often the calm ratioinal center of a PoliGAF panic hurricane.
This is a pretty critical stat. I'm increasingly looking to the share of those already voting, partly because it locks in an Obama lead for those votes, and partly because it's a measure of enthusiasm and ground game. And both are clearly on Obama's side.
A 35 point margin with 1/3 of the vote locked in is going to be tough as hell for Romney to overcome.
But I saw this on the only unbiased network there is:

Joe Scarborough has been citing that USA Today poll showing Romney is equal with Obama with women for days now. It will be interesting seeing him spin how both the new NBC polls show Obama with an 18 point lead with women
Rural, white, and old
I don't expect him to keep it but damn if I'm not trying haha. I can sit and chicken little or do something. I'm going to do something.
Basically the whole thing. I was going to do just the college question then someone pissed me off so i did the whole thing. I basically listened to it with a lot of tabs open. I especially nailed the energy and education stuff because that's my thing. Women's rights pissed a lot off same with the Ryan budget. Had a REAL source for everything too. Had 300+ notifications that night. I posted obamas speech before the now infamous "please proceed governor " so that was neat. I missed quite a bit because I was so busy posting and responding. I watched it again yesterday and it was glorious.
And yeah, I am catching A LOT of flack at work. Whatever. I've held my tongue long enough since I've been here. Enough is enough. If people want to vote Romney at least I've tried to show him who he is.

Iowa really came through for Obama during the Dem primaries & eventually the election, i guess they want to keep that tight bond for Obama

I'm betting PPP shows Romney down only one or two in Iowa

So all Romney has to do in order to get them to vote is just hide polling booths behind a Jerry's Fruit Market sign.
Good on you! I still fail to see how you can catch flack for fact checking, but then again this is probably irrational people we're dealing with (no offense to your FB friends/coworkers)
Sorry I don't know if anyone told you but NC is a lost cause
Probably, but I gotta try.

I would like to thank today's Polls, I'm feeling much better now.
Its not that hard.
Obama brought wind energy to Iowa, that created a lot of jobs. Romney and the GOP want to end that which will lose a lot of jobs. And through Magic they promise to create 130,000+ new jobs in...... we are still waiting to hear in what lol
Immigration is also a serious issue, when Obama basically backed the DREAM act that made a completely ag based state very excited that we might not be raided as much for illegals

Can somebody poll New York please? I'm getting worried about that state.
But I saw this on the only unbiased network there is:
How in the hell did they give Minnesota to Romney?
Ignore PPP hype tweets,and wait for the poll.
