Romney leads in only two of the nine polls, 47% to 44% -- the Rasmussen Tracking Poll, for the period July 7 to 9. He edges the president 43% to 42% in the Washington Times/JZ Analytics Poll for the period July 6 to 8.

The Rasmussen poll is the most accurate because it tracks likely voters instead of registered voters like most of the other polls.

One comment after the article is very interesting.
It implies that though The Keystone Pipeline would make oil and gas much cheaper for us, it would have a negative impact on the truck and rail tankers hauling oil from Canada that are owned by Obama's buddy and big campaign contributor, Warren Buffet.
Yes, very interesting.

Did the Rasmussen poll with it's "untrammelled sight" predict that Republicans were going to vote straight Democratic tickets for Obama in the last presidental election? They were registered voters. That seemed to be a tsumani margin of error.

Rasmussen predicted Obama would win and he was right.

polls are misleading as they don't always go into the hard to reach neighborhoods,unless maybe there online polls.people are educated enough nowadays to make up their own minds,whether they want romneys' layoffs,wars to benefit the wealthy businesses or a middle of the road person like Obama.romney might be able to keep secret bank accounts,but he sings bad!

Polls are misleading?
Maybe you missed this part when your ADHD kicked in after two or three words: Rasmussen was right.

I think it's interesting Ridge that you are not posting in my blog. Why is that? After all, debates takes both sides commentary to be useful otherwise it's like how the Greek philosophers only talked among themselves, writing text in Latin that no one understood but them. It took them a long time to figure out that people were "individuals" and they were the suppose to be the intellectuals. You see Ridge, I know more than "black history" I think it's silly to just talk among yourselves with people who have the same views and to have "thin skin" and live in glass houses. I know the welfare post had you drolling.

many tea party members are not answering the polls, we quite simply hang up, so its on to the next, with big brother watching , we remain silent in the polls.

Yea she knows more than black history Rdgrnr, that's why she is forerunner of the oppressed from barrys brigade...!And to this day still can't see the picture as a whole rather than a half.

You are now so intelligent, that I think the name of Mrs. Worldly would be fitting of your insight and perspectives.

I threw you out on your ass from my blog, jan-jan, because of your racism and hate.
Why in the world would I want to go to your blog and be subjected to more of it?
I don't like to be around negative people like you, so I'll just take a pass.
No hard feelings.

Ridge ! you 're being funny on something and very hateful on other things,you know there have been racial over tones on this sites by many and they are some of your favorites also, I can't let the things you say affect me ,cuz at the end of the day i have people that look to me for an understanding of what i am attemping to do for the good of the country.No personal sfuff ,cuz you don't know me like that and I you.

Most Polls ARE corporate commissioned AND driven and reflect what the entity that Pays for them want it to reflect.They only poll in a part of the country where they are most likely to get Their desired Result.
ANY Poll,for instance,done by Conservative Republican Scott Rasmussen is NOT legit to start with for obvious reasons because who Scott Rasmussen IS and his Conservative viewpoint on all things.
Like ANY FOX Opinion Dynamics Poll that only questions Republicans and/or Conservatives.
They may throw in a very small number of Independents or Democrats for appearance sake but their results are always the same.
The majority opinion their desire to achieve is always the result.
