I am sure the Obama supports, liberal media, and the West Wing are hitting the panic button as more and more polls shows Obama slipping




Mitt Romney (http://elections.nytimes.com/2012/primaries/candidates/mitt-romney?inline=nyt-per)’s strong performance at the debate last week has wiped out President Obama (http://elections.nytimes.com/2012/candidates/barack-obama?inline=nyt-per)’s lead in the latest national poll conducted by the Pew Research Center (http://www.people-press.org/2012/10/08/romneys-strong-debate-performance-erases-obamas-lead/).

Two-thirds of voters said Mr. Romney did a better job than Mr. Obama, including 39 percent of Democrats and 72 percent of independents. And Mr. Romney has improved his standing on most issues and personal characteristics.

Mr. Romney is backed by 49 percent of likely voters and Mr. Obama has the support of 45 percent. Six percent remain undecided. The four-point difference between the candidates is within the poll’s margin of sampling error of three percentage points for each candidate.
Mr. Obama had an eight-point lead among likely voters in the Pew Research Center poll conducted Sept. 12 to 16.

In the wake of last week’s debate, Mr. Romney’s supporters are newly energized: 82 percent said they had given a lot of thought to the election, up from 73 percent last month. In comparison, 67 percent of Mr. Obama’s supporters have given a lot of thought to the election. Sixty-seven percent of voters who prefer Mr. Romney said they strongly supported him, up from 56 percent in September. The number of Mr. Obama’s backers who strongly support him has stayed steady at 68 percent.

I was just checking out RCP and noticed that the gap in MI has shrunk to 5, that's from 10 prior. Wow!

I'm thinking that folks really didn't want Obama a second term, but until Romney gave them a reason to vote for him, seemed no alternative. That seems to have changed.

No wonder all the Obama drones have to say these days is Mitt is a liar. Seems that can't defend their fearless leaders record - so they attack
