exactly... LIV's also read these exagerated headlines and believe that Romney is clobbering... trailmonkee Oct 2012 #13
It isn't meaningless. To say so is being in denial. The polls indicate that something happened to still_one Oct 2012 #19
Agreed, Obama's debate performance was a disaster budkin Oct 2012 #59
and I really wish I didn't view it that way, but to ignore it is to become complacent still_one Oct 2012 #108

Inferring ALL of that from a smile??? And the distinct probability that you are wrong doesn't patrice Oct 2012 #69
I have worked in places at levels where most smiles mean something. plethoro Oct 2012 #99
You jumped from a smile to Obama and Robme are in collusion & that's not an inference? wow. patrice Oct 2012 #104

I think the poll includes Fri and Sat VirginiaTarheel Oct 2012 #45

Was this the tracking poll or did they do a stand alone poll. hrmjustin Oct 2012 #31

I'm confused, Obama is up 49-46 in Gallup today budkin Oct 2012 #47
Gallup has a seven day rolling poll oswaldactedalone Oct 2012 #52
Actually they say the polling for the three days afterward is a tie karynnj Oct 2012 #55
I no longer know where I saw this early this AM oswaldactedalone Oct 2012 #64
I wonder if that was a reporter misstating what was in the Gallup release karynnj Oct 2012 #71
Good observation. maddogesq Oct 2012 #56
Ah ok, so it is actually tied... he'll go up again once the jobs numbers take hold budkin Oct 2012 #58

No surprise-- Romney managed to undo some of the "painting" at the debate andym Oct 2012 #57
