Obama winning in the polls. What's Romney's problem?

That its that close isn't good for Obama. Undecided voters, especially in years with bad economic indicators, break late for the challenger. With a VP announcement, Convention and four debates upcoming there is tremendous room for movement for Romney.

Obama is hitting Romney hard right now on the usual class war fare notes and he isn't pulling away.

As things are right now, Romney needs 4 states that are currently toss ups as the polls go to win the White House. Florida, Virginia, Ohio, and one more of NH, Colorado, Iowa, Nevada.

Right now Romney doesn't have a problem.

The Republicans have done this to themselves. The majority of the nation just is not in line with the Republican viewpoint. I beieve that if there were a more conservative candidate like Michele Bachman or Sarah Palin- President Obama would have a 20 point lead. Mitt is as close as Republicans are going to get right now.

He's got to many to list.

He's just not Presidential Material

He's a Republican and an unscrupulous business man who is untrustworthy.

idk

He's a crazy Mormon fool.

We need a "none of the above".

Besides the mountains of statistics showing Obama has tanked the economy-like the stupid giving away of billions to banks without making them liable & accountable for using it for the purpose it was intended,letting them spend it on incredible CEO bonuses & the like;
statistics that have been given here on SH,that I'm not going to reiterate,

One BIG problem is the left liberal MEDIA who faithfully airs Obama all the time, in a very favorable light,

But for Romney, they barely show him giving like 2 mini sentences, barely ANY air time, & then with a continual slant of negative.

This is probably part of their campaign strategy as well. I have noticed this for a long time, & it was mentioned on the news yesterday, about how the left media operates.

Americans are not HEARING what ROMNEY is saying, & that's a BIG PROBLEM! He needs more savvy people to be on these things. Americans won't know how to vote for him if they don't even know what he says-thanks to the slanted, biased left news media!!

This is just plain rotten. It's part of Obama's rotten administration tactics, & it makes me sick! Who wants an administration full of crooks? It's like a Chicago gang!

Not 'like' a chicago gang...they ARE a Chicago gang.

You're right! Look at Holder, & the "czars" he's appointed. He's acting like a dictator, & I pray he's not re-elected, because we'll see alot worse!

he also took Geithner (a republican) and Petraeus (a republican)
Bush had loads of czars too. They're just advisers. They have no political power.

makes you wonder, tho, when he gives them unending tenure....

what country are you from?

why-don't you watch the news?

maybe you should, I caught it ever morning and evening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

did you catch flies?

none the less, the czars have as much power as Obama wants them to have. They're probably set up to keep things going his way after he's out of the white house.

I thought giving away to the banks happened under Paulsen (Bush era) on a 3 page document with no strings attached. At least Obama's continuation of TARP did have strings attached.

but TARP was a complete failure.

If romney has nothing to say, why should Americans that love this country listen?

Romney has plenty to say, that's why Obama's ads lie, & why the left liberal media only plays about 5 words. Now Romney chose Ryan as his running mate, the media will probably give a little more air time.

Obama doesn't want america to hear what Romney has to say, because Romney can fix the problems in america.

Obama's track record has proven he can't fix anything-NOT AMERICA. he doesn't want the focus to be on his lfailed track record. simple as that.

Romney loves this country too. Obama has shown he doesn't. He couldn't even put his hand over his heart & say the pledge of allegiance. What a crock.

Another George Bush!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crock Obummer isn't good enough to kiss Bush's big toe-he probably would need his teleprompter to tell him how to do it.

He's too much of a stiff fake.

You have stated the truth!

Romney's problem is the left liberal news media, who has always embraced the stinking Obama-their darling-who'se out to crash our country, & bring it to it's knee's.

American's-please don't let him do it. Don't be fooled by Obama's persuasive speeches, that don't say a single thing, but his track record-which speeks volumnes-is never talked about.

no, Romney's problem is Romney! He simply isn't qualified to be President of the United States.

I TOTALLY AGREE THAT ROMNEY IS SIMPLY QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!

willard isn't qualified to run his own household let alone a country; you and I both know that.

Obumbo has shown he can't run a country, as proven by his track record, which he so desparately tries to cover up. He plays the blame game instead.

perhaps you might want to read over this list:

http://pleasecutthecrap.typep...

after work I will. Remember the pollls are only about 570 -1200 people. not the whole country like lthey want you to think! watch every time they list the polls, how many peoplel are used.

It's just a left liberal tactic to decieve people.

Tell them again!

What has romney done for the middle class, nothing! His money isn't able to help him become a true American, and his money has not done anything for you if you really think about it.

He's nothing more than Obama Lite. People wanted a real alternative, and what they got was Obamney.

The Romney PACs (not necessarily Romney himself) is allowing Obama to spend (over spend since Obama is in the hole on his campaign spending) heavily on attack adds which can be easily disproved.

When it sinks in what a bad deal Obamatax (formally Obamacare) is, the unemployment rate goes back up, the housing market crashes again, and inflation continues to rise, by the time the RNC convention is over and Romney picks a running mate, the Romney PACs will go to battle stations, and rip Obama from one side to the other..

Keep in mind, at this stage of the game, Carter was ahead of some guy named Ronald Reagan who no one thought would have a chance.

superPACS on Romney's side spend far more than on Obama's side. Obamacare is Romneycare. Romney himself said he hoped his plan would go national.

I think it's because he can't take a reasoned stance on many issues without alienating the radical base of my GOP, but it could be that believing in the fantasies of Joesph Smith has some of that base rejecting him.

Hmmmm Tuesday, July 03, 2012

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows Mitt Romney attracting 47% of the vote, while President Obama earns 44%. Four percent (4%) prefer some other candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided.

Last week, the president received an immediate bounce following the Supreme Court ruling on his health care law. On the night of the ruling, the single night poll results were by far the best recorded for Obama in many months. Over the past few days, the numbers have returned to where they’ve been for most of the past month—Romney up slightly among likely voters in a very close race.

today though the average of all polls has Obama ahead.
