Latest national polls

[Mass]

With all the usual warnings that national polls are dubious, and even more dubious this week due to the fact it is very hard to poll the NY/NJ area (quite a few people there).

[Historic NY]

1. DElusional gop polling...

[Budee]

2. Sandy will help Obama

I've recently saw ads for Romney in Chicago. They must have too much money and don't know where to spend it! Obama +4 on Tuesday.

3. We have some at the CT/MA border (not states that will go for Romney)

The guess is that they are trying to increase Romney/decrease Obama 's popular vote so that they can present him as illegitimate.
