I don't believe Obama's poll numbers for a NY minute.
Obama has just blown through $100 MILLION dollars on attack ads against Romney and doesn't have jack-squat to show for it. It proves my contention that Obama thinks of himself as an expert on all matters, but we know for a fact he is master at none.
Poll Shows Obama's Lead Wiped Out In Critical Swing State

Wednesday night's CBS/New York Times poll showing Barack Obama in a deadlocked race against Mitt Romney is being treated as a cause for some alarm for his re-election campaign. But this morning's Quinnipiac University poll out of Virginia should, in all likelihood, make the team in Chicago even more nervous.
Mitt Romney wipes out Barack Obama’s lead in Virginia and the two candidates are deadlocked 44 – 44 percent in the race for the Old Dominion’s 13 electoral votes, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.
This compares to a 50 – 42 percent lead for Obama in a March 20 survey by the independent Quinnipiac University and a 47 – 42 percent Obama lead June 7.
The takeaway from this poll is similar to the one drawn from the CBS/New York Times data: the economic news is overwhelming everything else, including the attacks on Romney's tenure at Bain Capital and his refusal to release his tax returns.
By a narrow 47 – 44 percent, voters say Romney would do a better job on the economy.
The difference is that the Obama campaign can live with the idea that the Bain capital attacks don't resonate nationally. It is, however, deeply invested in them working in critical swing states like Virginia.

appointed, we found out that he owed taxes. Lots of them. He never counted the
car and driver services he got for three years, one year consulting fees, and
took illegal charitable contributions. In all, he underpaid on 353,552 dollars
in income or false deductions. For that he owed 128,203, plus another 11,964 in

Ron Kirk, Obama's pick for Chief Trade Representative. He didn't pay taxes on
speaking fees and wrote off 17k for Maverick season tickets
Timothy Geithner, Obama's pick for Treasury Secretary. Geithner failed to pay
34,000 in taxes on his income from the International monetary Fund. He tried to
pass it off as an innocent mistake because of the way the IMF pays. That would
have been a good excuse, had he not testified in front of congress in 1998,
explaining the complicated circumstances
Rep Hilda Solis. Obama's pick for Labor Secretary, owed state on local taxes
on their auto business. Additional tax cheats picked by Obama include Kathleen
Sebelius, Nancy Killefer, Capricia Marshall, and others. And it's not just
cabinet officers who owe back taxes. In the White House staff, there are 41 who

politicians who are tax cheats, like Charles Rangel and Al Franken, who had to
be taken to court in New York State in order to get him to pay up. Sherrod
Brown, the big tax lover failed to pay his property taxes 3 years in a row and
the property he owned was actually listedup for the Sheriff's Auction.
Then there's Media Matters who has a 501(C)(3)
tax exempt status. As such they are not allowed to provide the DNC or WH with
coordination, but they do. They won't lose their tax exempt status until 2013,
when our corrupt president and the head of the DOJ are nothing but a very bad
memory
Obama likes to talk about people paying their fair share, but shouldn't we
make the democrats pay their current taxes before we raise anyone else's?
Also the champion of high inheritance taxes, Teddy Kennedy, didnt have to
worry about the taxes himself as the family trust is in Fiji, where Poppa Joe
put it when FDR informed him the tax structure would change. The tax started in
1916 and only applied to assets that were liquidated. FDR changed that to all
assets with a few deductions
And I saved the biggie for last. Warren Buffet, Obama's favorite billionaire
and the man who cries that he pays a lower percentage than his secretary.
Perhaps he would be paying more than her if he paid the 1.05 billion
billion is not an error he owes through his Berkshire Hathaway
investment fund
