    on The Five today, Blowhard Beckel said if Gallup’s numbers are correct (52-45), it’s over.

    He was not a happy camper.

    Romney up in Pennsylvania big time.

    A new poll shows Republican Mitt Romney leading in Pennsylvania, a state that Republicans had all but written off just weeks ago but which is now listed as a toss up by the Real Clear Politics website.

    Susquehanna Polling and Research provided The Washington Examiner with a poll it conducted for state party officials that shows Romney with a 49 percent to 45 percent lead over President Obama.

    It’s the first poll to show Romney leading among likely voters in the Keystone State.

    “The polling is very clear that the race is certainly up for grabs and Republicans have a tendency to never believe it,” Susquehanna President James Lee told The Examiner.

    ponderon,

    I can’t see anyone setting this election out that wants to get rid of Obama. There could be massive snow storms, and that won’t stop the turn out for Romney on November 6th.

    I posted this the other day her at Gateway. . NJ is in play. . .
    Just as Chris Christie leaped ahead of Dem Corzine on Election day though down in polls prior, Romney will will surge ahead. .
    Visibly absent . . Obama bumper stickers or yard signs. . .
    Also, no one is out talking about Obama like in 2008. . .
    With gas close to $4/gal. .and lots of unemployed,
    people know it is time for change. . .
    We deserve better

    BTW. .Clinton in 1992 NEVER won a majority of popular votes. . . ONLY 43%!!! (but 370 Electoral college votes – 100 more than needed) – -
    reason being Ross Perot captured almost 20% of votes. . . as a third party spoiler.

    Its over. Romney needs to start talking about Republicans taking the Senate.

    I am still going to vote as though my vote will determine who wins and who loses.

    I am very afraid there are lots of groups out there that want to fill the void Acorn has left — whether they are reborn Acorn organizations with new names, Soros-sponsored groups, or whether they are folks in prison (like those in Minnesota that swung the Senate race to Frankin’s advantage).

    Thanks to vote-by-mail here in Libtardistan, I was able to cast a vote toward ridding us of Zero’s malevolent “leadership”. There was a bit of futility to it, since the Libtards have been able, lately, (honestly and otherwise), to elect Demopaths consistently. However, based upon the much reduced prevalence now of Zero-promoting bumper stickers, displaying Libtardians’ pride in their stupidity, as compared to 4 years ago, I am hopeful that many of them will decline to vote, reasoning that this is a such a blue state Zero has it locked. Of course, if my vote were to make any difference, Zero would be losing by a tremendous landslide anyway. My fond hope is that he loses so badly that he will be forced, by his own baseless pride, to disappear from public life, or even off himself.

    Yup, we’ve got to turn out every Repub vote we can—-because the opposition will try to steal the elections! Think Sen Al Franken!!!

    If you think your vote doesn’t count, nationally or locally, you’ve fallen for the biggest confidence scam running. Even if a candidate I opposed were polled pre-election at 100% I’d still be there casting my vote on election day. The only poll that truly matters is the one taken on election day. Hard to discount a “poll” based on actual voters as compared to likely ones.

    It can be intertaining following the poll numbers but there is a whole lot of work to be done. Don’t forget the congressonal races, both national and local. Also, if there are any of you who have races for attorney general don’t forget how important it is to get the right ones elected. All the way down to dog catcher, we need to see a ground swell of conservatives being elected. Let’s kick the regressives out at all levels of government and save this Republic.
