1. So he's continuing his tracking poll when most of the others stopped?

at least temporarily.

[TroyD]

3. "Sixteen percent (16%) of white Democrats now support Romney."

What do you make of this statement?

[WI_DEM]

4. a fantasy. No other poll backs that up.

[TroyD]

9. I found it odd because Romney's support went down in Rasmussen over the past week

A week ago Romney was at (+4) or (+5) and now he is down to (+2).

11. You can only get a statistic like that by sampling

only Democrats. I don't think they did that.
It could be that 16% of Dems in that pole but since it was not specifically a pole of Dems they do not represent Dems as a whole. If you do use it to represent all Dems the margin of error would be so large it would be meaningless.

15. This white Democrat in Texas voted for Obama

6. Yeah, if the polling was from yesterday and the day before many people

still have no power. I suppose you can take a small sample from those you might reach on the east coast and weight it. But does Rasmussen even call the east coast? Makes one wonder, doesn't it?

8. Let him! And let the voters vote to privatize FEMA, and Ryan budget to cut it 40%.

Then private companies can come in and tell the town what it will cost to rebuild their roads, etc. and their homes.....let them.

2. In a week

They are going to look rather foolish

14. I cannot wait!!!

What a glorious night it will be...

5. when you consider that their polls favor R's by 4% ave,

that's a great poll for Obama! LOL!

[valerief]

7. What a whore poll. nt

[manhatslim]

10. Not bad for POTUS!!

When you consider Rasmussen is a republican poll.. and that phony is up by 2% nationally - This is not bad at all for the Pres as far as
popular vote is concerned. But, I'm STILL nervous as heck... they can steal it once again..

[BlueToTheBone]

12. In what universe?

[Marsala]

13. He'll be off by 3 at most either way if he sticks with these numbers.

Almost certainly less. I expect Obama 49, Romney 48 or something close to that.
