Guy from Gallup just on Jansing & Co says polls are shifting back to Obama.
This could be the 7.8 Jobs Report, the lies the DNC attacked Romney for, or a combo of both.
From what he said, it sounded like last night's polling was very different from last week's.

(527 posts)I would expect Sundays to poll better for Democrats than Republicans since the Republicans trick people into thinking they are the party of Jesus. I didn't know that Jesus was a war monger though who thought all the poor people were just too lazy to work. It is nice to see that Monday was also solid.

(26,044 posts)Because, no matter what may have happened to Obama's numbers since the weekend, Gallup is switching to their LV model starting today -- and the same spokesman also said that, with the new model in place, they're "almost even" (which I'm guessing means something like O+1). Of course, we can count on the Corporate Media ignoring the model switch, and touting it as "another big surge for Romney"...

The more important info is that if Obama still has the lead with LV screen and Biden does well enough in the debate on Thursday, Obama's #'s may rebound. It is actually very encouraging news.

(99,710 posts)Model One- Registered Voters
Model Two-Traditional Likely Voters
Model Three- Low Turnout
Model Four-High Turnout
Critics argued there was something there for everyone. As an aside I will be disappointed if there is a large gap ( >2%) between registered and likely voters as that indicates a lot of our potential voters are too lazy to vote. That's exactly what the Republicans want. I hope my Latino and African American brothers and sisters step up and vote. Latinos are some seventeen percent of the population and recent polls suggest they will only be six or seven percent of the electorate. They're better than that.
