Marquette Law School poll: Obama 51 Romney 43 (1,243 likely voters, live interviews, cell phones included)

I never thought WI was in danger. Ditto for Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Minnesota. I laugh at the the dilettantes on the teevee who hold themselves out as pundits.

1. I hear the sound of doors closing

2. Huge improvement over their last poll.

I think WI is done for Romney. No threat there anymore. Now can we get a legit Mich Poll to shut the MSM up? If Obama is ahead in WI, IA and OH he is not losing MI, MN, and PA.

The Detroit News(through pollster Glengariff Group) is a RW newspaper and McCollum, Foster, White and Baydoun is a terrible pollster. Those are the two polls they are relying on to say MI is close.

3. Yep, last poll was 49-48 for Obama on October 17

4. These Polls Have A Confidence Level Of .095%

That means one out of every twenty polls may contain results outside of the margin of error.

That's why cherry picking polls is so dangerous and misleading.

6. With regard to sampling error, that's true. But other sources of error, including

response rate, house effect, and erroneous likely voter screens are separate considerations.

10. Republicans should be very worried

This was their favorate poll on recall.During the Romney surge after first debate they had It down to 1 point lead.It's now much
higher again.The final debate take down of Romny+Sandy response may be taking us closer to where we were before first debate.
If Obama wins WI by solid margain he Is winning the Kerry states+Gore states of Iowa and New Mexico.after that Romney Is In serious trouble with Nevada,Co,and Ohio trending Obama.Not to mention Virginia slightly In Obama's direction and Florida and NC still In play.

8. Wow, this is a respected WI pollster...

plus all the OH polls. The battleground path to victory looks solid just based on these two states alone.

5. Boom goes the dynamite, indeed. nt
