Obama is ahead for sure.. but National Polls are meaningless for the Presidential Election because votes aren't counted that way. At this point one has to look at the combined state polls and their relativity to the National Electoral map - which has Obama MUCH farther ahead of Romney. Mitt has no chance.

What I hate is hypocrisy, and you are full of it
.
Save your Liberal talking points for the people (if there are any left) who are
buying it.
Obama 's blame game is almost over!
Romney’s refusal to fully disclose all of his financial holdings and
income raises red flags. There are no allegations of illegality, but
there are an awful lot of questions. Romney still receives residual
income from Bain and its holdings though he officially (though
apparently not literally) left years ago. His Bain income and holdings
are the most cloaked, and considering that Bain profits by moving money
around in clever ways, the most sought-after.
Even as governor, Romney held his financial cards as close to his
vest as Massachusetts law allowed. One day before he was sworn in as
Governor of Massachusetts in 2003, Romney transferred to his wife’s
blind trust ownership of Bermuda-based Sankaty High Yield Asset

Even as governor, Romney held his financial cards as close to his
vest as Massachusetts law allowed. One day before he was sworn in as
Governor of Massachusetts in 2003, Romney transferred to his wife’s
blind trust ownership of Bermuda-based Sankaty High Yield Asset
Investors, Ltd. Sankaty is a hedge fund created by Bain in 1977 to
facilitate its Domino’s Pizza acquisition. A Bermuda shell corporation
like this allows investors to avoid U.S. taxes on earnings (and can
facilitate money laundering). By Massachusetts law, once it was in the
blind trust, he did not have to disclose ownership or control of
Sankaty.
Public officials use blind trusts to avoid the appearance (and fact)
of conflict of interest. A blind trust is supposed to be run by an
independent trustee and its contents unknown to the owner. Thus, the
official is not aware whether he owns part of any company that the
government is doing business with. The trustee for the Romney blind
trust is Mitt’s personal lawyer.
The Sankaty shell company remained undocumented until Romney released
his 2010 tax returns recently. Funny thing, but in the 2010 tax
return, Sankaty was listed as directly owned by both Romneys, not by
Ann’s blind trust.
Romney did not disclose ownership of Sankaty on his presidential
campaign filings because it did not meet the minimum $1000 value
required in campaign disclosures. Mitt’s tax returns confirm that
Sankaty was valued at zero. However, it was not a worthless company. Its
assets and its debts were each $10,000. Knowing how Bain killed
companies it bought–by loading them up with debt—it is easy to see that
Sankaty is still a useful business tool. It is also worthwhile to
remember that shifting debt among real and shell companies and not
reporting it accurately was what got Enron in trouble. With a fortune
and legal and accounting team the size of Romney’s, there could be any
number of things going on behind his financial veil.
Do you think the Liberal actors in Hollyweird deserved the millions upon millions they earned while spending a month at the most making a movie?
Quite frankly, unless it's illegal, it's none of your freaking business how anyone makes money. Your double standard is sickening.
Furthermore it's none of your freaking business what Romney is hiding. Until Obama comes clean about his past and his radical dealings, you and he are in NO position to request anything from anybody.
You need to provide proof and your source for all the allegations you are making, or keep your opinions to yourself.
But back to the real point, it sure as hell is the country's right to know how Romney made his millions! How is it not my business? As long as he running for President, redirecting money offshore and to Swiss bank accounts, and knowingly fund raising with corrupt fat cat bankers inquiring minds will ask, What is he hiding?
I can give you as many sources as you want, but you will probably just poop-poop them as "Liberal Media" material. All you have to do is Google it for yourself. There are hundreds.
I am an American, so I still have 1st Amendment rights to state my opinion. This is a blog. So you can just not reply, block me or do what ever.
I just bet there are hundreds of Liberal trash bag web sites working overtime to slam Romney. They, like you are wasting their time.
This is NOT a blog, it is a polling site...and if I want to reply to you I will.
Well, in the words of a pundit just on TV - it is the silly season.
Obama has spent 92 million on TV ads so far - Gawd, I hope you are right - that SOB must go
principals, morality, and decency outside. Once inside you will find the exhibits of Reagan Banks and corporatism, together with a couple of evangelical preachers offering to "save your soul", as if you had one after paying the admission.
