Romney Holds +12 Advantage Among Unafiliated Voters

Pollster John McLaughlin, quoted at National Review:

 

“Part of the reason the Democrats won in 2008

was that when it looked as if McCain was going to lose,

some Republicans stayed home.” 

 

(The other "part of the reason" might have been the Enemedia.)

 

Many "defining moments" later... This is some of the best news that I've seen in a long time:  

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows President Obama and Mitt Romney each attracting support from 46% of voters nationwide.

Three percent (3%) prefer some other candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided. See daily tracking history. When “leaners” are included, the candidates are tied at 48%. Leaners are those who are initially uncommitted to the two leading candidates but lean towards one of them when asked a follow-up question.

Obama is supported by 89% of Democrats. Romney gets the vote from 85% of Republicans and holds a 12-point advantage among unaffiliated voters.

 

Hot spit.

What we saw last week, in that barrage of MSM stories about Obama's apparently insurmountable lead in the polls, was an attempt -- orchestrated by the administration and implemented by the lap-dog media -- to so demoralize the Right that nobody will bother to get out of bed on November 6th and vote for Romney. After all, why vote for a guy whose chances of winning are no better than Millard Fillmore's? Let me say again what I've said repeatedly in recent months: Romney/Ryan will win -- and it won't even be a squeaker. With the exception of Rasmussen, who uses more valid (and more expensive) polling techniques, the polls being touted by the media are worthless. I'll betcha that in November, we'll find that even Rasmussen is understating Romney's strength -- but not nearly as much as his competitors are.
