http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/obama-holds-edge-over-romney-in-general-election-matchup-poll-finds/2012/02/05/gIQA5JX0sQ_story.htmlMeanwhile, the presidents recent remarks are better reviewed. Among the roughly 6 in 10 Americans who heard or read about the presidents State of the Union address, 57 percent say they approve of most of what he laid out.
What a great trend!
Keep it coming.

(11 posts)In 2008, Romney won a slightly higher %age in Nevada, and had 6000 more votes, against a much larger field of candidates. He has done anything but energize the base of any group except the, Nahhhhhh...not getting out to vote today, group. What people call his gaffes, aren't mistakes. A man like Romney doesn't make mistakes. He IS telling people his innermost thoughts...and the American People aren't buying it. He can get over 50% of his own party in a state where only 35000 total votes are cast...and if you put his 16000 votes up against the 1.2 Million republicans registered in Nevada...his great victory doesn't seem ask that great anymore. Does it?
