Daily Tracking Poll
Day 13: Oct. 21, 2012
Obama: +5.7
Obama 47.9% | Romney 42.2%
Obama has opened up a 6-point lead over Romney in our latest poll, his largest lead yet.
Some 8.1% of those polled said they were not sure whom they would vote for, also the largest percentage yet.
Obamas lead seemed to build after the second debate, which many mainstream media pundits believe Obama won.
Self-described moderates now prefer Obama over Romney by 22 points, the second largest margin since we began polling.
Obama holds a hefty 35-point lead among urban dwellers, and a comfortable 5-point lead in the suburbs.

That is a surprising boom (yesterday was Obama by +2.6). Not sure what happened.

(25,601 posts)Other than the racial component, which is large but not huge, what would appeal to the masses about Romney? His personal appeal? His creepy entitled family? His dissing of the 47%? His lying/Romnesia (I for one prefer the former but it's not as funny as the latter)? His wealth beyond compare? His policies? His eternal family's lack of participation in the military?
He's AZ...Absolute Zero.
