Weekly World News: 'Shock Poll: Romney Leads Obama by 22 Points'

http://weeklyworldnews.com/politics/51481/shock-poll-romney-leads-obama-by-22-points/
September 24, 2012

In a shocking new WWN/PPQ Presidential Poll, Mitt Romney is pulling away from Barack Obama. Romney’s up by 22!

Former Governor Mitt Romney is pulling ahead in the 2012 Presidential race according to a recent national poll. The WWN/PPQ poll was the third most accurate poll in 2008 and its latest polling shows Mitt Romney leading in the presidential race and in ALL the battleground states.

... There was big change over the weekend. Single women are now turning away from the president and throwing their support behind the President. Some say that the reason single women are doing so is that Mitt Romney promised to give every single woman $10,000 “on my very first day in office.” Romney is also offering seniors a “major tax rebate” and is giving Hispanics a “two year tax holiday”.

Former Clinton adviser, Dick Morris, says that the WWN/PPQ poll is actually underestimating the Romney vote. “I think Romney will win 48 states on election day. He’ll win every state, except for Hawaii and Illinois.”

"Alien Spaceships To Attack Earth On November 2012" and "Earth To Collide With Nibiru on November 21".

This is hugh!
With their sterling reputation for prediction I don't think it matters who wins.

"As short a time ago as February, the Ministry of Plenty had issued a promise (a 'categorical pledge' were the official words) that there would be no reduction of the chocolate ration during 1984. Actually, as Winston was aware, the chocolate ration was to be reduced from thirty grammes to twenty at the end of the present week. All that was needed was to substitute for the original promise a warning that it would probably be necessary to reduce the ration at some time in April."
