LOL! You know the Romneytards are desperate when they start dredging out bogus "GOP internal polls" (ie., junk polls).

From the biography of the person who runs the place that came up with this poll result (McCain, Christie, Kirk.. why no democrats so that they can at least claim to have no bias?):

Greg has held numerous positions in presidential, congressional and state legislative campaigns across the country, including as the senior advisor for polling and advertising in Senator John McCain’s 2008 presidential bid. More recently, Greg had a similar role with New Jersey Governor Chris Christie in his upset victory of 2009, and Senator Mark Kirk’s successful campaign in 2010.

Gingrich

Exactly, and even though I don't agree with it at all, I could maybe see it if they had a really good candidate that was to the far right or whatever. However, they don't. Everything they throw against the wall doesn't stick. It's just really become stupid. The really funny thing about it is that in 2008, Romney was the conservative alternative for some of the same people. They have just fallen into the group think bs of saying he is not a conservative. It has all been orchestrated to nominate one of the weaker candidates and Obama winning a second term.

It will just cancel out all of the votes from the deceased and illegals the Democrats have voting.

"The consulting firm -- headed by Republican strategist Greg Strimple -- tested Romney against Obama in six states: Florida, Ohio, Nevada, New Mexico, Virginia and Wisconsin. Romney led in all but New Mexico, where the race was an exact tie."

If I find a poll headed by a Democratic strategist that says the opposite and I started a thread with it, you and Dixiegirl would laugh so hard you'd **** your pants.

This is what I can truly not understand. Mitt Romney was considered one of the Conservative candidates in 2008. Since then, he has certainly not gotten more liberal. I wish I could rep you for this and your following post, but I need to spread my reps around first. You always seem to be right on the spot

the only polls that matter are gallup and rasmuseen. They call the election within a half a percentage point every time.

CNN polls are not that bad but they are shaky
