Dammit, now they're just punking us! Yahoo headline - Poll has Obama, Romney tied at 47%

Romney being anywhere close to the President in an honest poll would be impossible. To suggest they're tied at 47% is trying to rub our faces in it.

Jonathan Alter floated the nightmare scenario: "We could have, Mara, we could have another 2000, where this election is so close that in some areas it goes to the courts, um, and we have a huge mess on our hands. We still have not straightened out our election system in this country and more problems could lay beyond November 6."

what a joke it is. . .

Where ARE all those supporters? They certainly don't show up at any of his or Ryan's speeches or rallies! They have a handful compared to what President Obama draws.

I know of a very few (brainwashed fundamentalists and/or racist misogynists - 0h wait same thing) - who support Romney. He's white and he's not a Muslim and - sometimes - he's anti-abortion.
