He puts out a bunch of Republican leaning polls in the swing states and then puts out a poll for Washington that shows the president with a huge lead. Of course Washington isn't a swing state and has never been seriously contested by Romney.

(99,710 posts)Everybody knows WA isn't a swing state...So he can perform a honest poll...
If you look at his swing state polls he's showing an essentially deadlocked race.
I used to live in Orlando. His office is in Winter Springs...Winter Springs is a small suburb in the northeast corner of Seminole County. I imagine his office might be four hundred square feet or so...

He better call the Rmoney campaign, they pulled future ad buys in Ohio,and have all but ceded the state as lost.
I guess we're all idiots here.
