1. The GOP! nt

2. No, thanks, but curious to see reactions to Dem convention this week,

hoping for some real compare/contrast from indies + 'undecideds.'
HOPE media does its job well.

3. It Would Be Nice To Create Some Real Separation

Say four or five percentage points.


We might just have to wait for the debates to show how unlikeable Romney is.

4. Sure would be nice,

but I'm pretty suspicious of polling these days, especially after reading about pollsters' quandary, not knowing HOW to poll in this new cell vs. landline era.

6. Most Reputable Pollster Include Cell Phone Interviews

Excluding them renders a poll, worthless, imho.

5. If we can get some separation, then Obama can start to work on Senate and House seats

7. only bounce is from rasmussen, and they pull the #s out of their ass

which is why the only time in the last few months ras had Obama leading was a day before the convention, for the specific purpose of claiming there was a big bounce when they wrote the fuzzy math saying Herr Botox Mittens was in the lead

which is why electoral-vote.com and others now have a rasmussen free page
