Rasmussen has Romney up in VA and FL, with OH tightening

[davidn3600]

Florida: Romney 49%, Obama 47%

Virginia: Romney 49%, Obama 48%

Ohio: Obama 50%, Romney 49%


I know it is Rasmussen, but he had Obama leading in all three states before the debate. It at least shows Romney might have gotten a slight bounce.

As I have been telling people for the past month. You can't get complacent. The election isn't for another 31 days. It's not over yet. You have to fight as if Obama is behind by 10.

1. Here is the post- vs. pre-debate Rasmussen swing in the margin for each state

VA-2 points
FL-4 points
OH-0 points

3. This guy works for Fixed News

And I'm sure he will be on there all weekend propping up these numbers which are all in the margin of error

10. That amount of tightening seems realistic.

However the topline numbers don't seem so likely, especially since Ras was apparently getting stuff like Obama + 1 in OH when everyone else was getting much higher.

2. Romney's spincther is tightening, you can count on that.

He's running out of time to spread his sack of lies.

4. He would have gotten a small bounce no matter what. Isn't much. Doesn't mean much.

6. And it just might be bullshit too

7. He put Obama ahead before debate, so he could make Rmoney look better after debate.

by getting him ahead of Obama. Not going to work.

8. Yeah but let's see what every other swing state poll shows

My guess is that it isn't that good. Romney will not win any of those 3 states

He has dropped a little but I feel confident he will go back up!

Romney will have to win all 3 and another state with at least 15 electoral votes to win the electoral vote count.

11. Unfortunately, I believe the Virginia number

I live in Williamsburg. I rarely see Obama signs or bumper stickers. More Romney signs are popping up(mostly the really large signs). It is different from 2008 when there was this feeling of excitement. Obama bumper stickers and signs were everywhere. I'm worried that the numbers down here will not be close enough for Northern VA to pull us over the line. I would love Virginia to go blue again. I want us the hold on to Ohio more than that because it would make the path very difficult for Romney.

12. (R)Amussen always polls heavily toward republicans.

But Yahoo News, the heir apparent to Fox News, is pushing this HARD "We ask America" polls? WTF are they?
