Troubling PPP Tweet regarding Wisconsin...

PublicPolicyPolling
‏@ppppolls 7h
Well I guess Republicans will be pushing the PPP numbers in Wisconsin this week

After several good recent polls out of WI are the PPP numbers tomorrow going to pour cold water on them?

2. PPP may be a Democratic firm but their numbers have leaned Republican this season

Especially in Wisconsin.

3. Wonder if this was in response to the Marquette poll?

Didn't PPP tweet last night that the 47 percent thing was problematic for Mitt in their first night of polling?

Here's what they said:

Obama also looking better on the first night of our Wisconsin poll than he has on our last two surveys there

So I wonder if they just meant that latest tweet in response to the kind-of-out-there results from Marquette. Sort of a, "Heh. Well with those crappy numbers from Marquette (for the GOP), guess they'll be happier with us now!"

Who knows? But that other tweet was from last night and suggested he had a good first night. Also, this one last night:

Wisconsin first place we've polled since Romney's comments came out, pretty strong sense among voters there that they were inappropriate

4. Here's recent WI poll: O-49, R-48

also:

Two polls out Wednesday show President Barack Obama on top of GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney in the swing state of Wisconsin.

Obama leads, 54 percent to 40 percent, in a Marquette University Law poll released Wednesday afternoon. The same poll found Obama with a narrower, 49 to 46 percent, lead over Romney before both party conventions, and shortly after the Republican candidate named Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate.

A separate poll of Wisconsin voters conducted by Quinnipiac University, the New York Times and CBS News also found Obama with an advantage in the Badger State. Obama led by six points, 51 to 45 percent, in that poll released this morning.

NBC News considers Wisconsin a "toss-up" state for purposes of its battleground map. NBC News will have the results of a third poll of Wisconsin, conducted in partnership with Marist College and the Wall Street Journal, on Thursday.

Maybe I'd take that Marquette poll with a grain of salt.

5. PPP is talking about their most recent poll

which showed a close race between Obama and rmoney. Several polls that have come out after show PPP poll might be an outlier.

6. PPP polled me today. Mostly about which one I'd vote for and quite a few about

the EPA and which one I'd vote for..someone who prefers wind energy and renewable sources or someone who prefers drilling.
