Obama 47.1%, Romney 47.0%

Real Clear Politics Friday afternoon. First time I've seen Obama with a lead since debate-gate 1. Once again factor out conservative and partisan Gallup's revised 6% poll lead for Romney and Obama's overall lead obviously is significantly higher.

You got there before I did! Yep, it seems the aftermath of the 2nd debate is now starting to show and Obama seems more energized now that he knows it's duel to the finish. Still even excluding Gallup it's dangerously close for any Dem. because of my call on the GOPT having a handicap down below 1.25%. Obama needs more breathing space. He needs to hammer RMONEY's positions on women. This is RMONEY's weak point and he needs to also hammer his economic plans and tie them to BV$H at every stop. 2008 is not that far away in most people's minds and he has to warn people as bad as things still are the GOPT intends to make it even worse if they get the power. Those two simple ideas need to be repeated and enlarged daily from here on. No going back folks, only forward and if you choose to buy the GOPT kool-aid shame on you. I'm afraid many Reptiles will simply vote tribal. They hate the n-gger in the WH that's it, forget reason forget the facts , all they are thinking is get the black out and the white back in.

He seems to be doing this just as you say by linking Romney to the causes of the Great Recession. He did this on The Daily Show clips and I thought that it is not only effective but TRUE! Problem is at the core as we know Obama and Romney are the same corporatist types, only Romney corporate interests are significantly more slash and burn - shock and awe. He will slash away at the middle class and we already know what he thinks about we scum on the bottom 50%. Now when you actually ask a Republican why they hate Obama so much you are gong to get complete revisionist history as touted by FOX. It's a bunch of made up nonsense. Facts be damned. i mean when 50% of the voting GOTP in Ohio don't know if it was Romney or Obama who took out Osama bin Laden what do you expect from the point of view of knowing anything about reality.
