Thanks!

What IS a "likely voter?" - RC

I have no idea what that means.

I did find an article on it, but it isn't terribly helpful.

I interpret a "likely voter" - SK1

as one who regularly votes in all elections. Contrast them to people who are registered to vote but usually stay home on election day. At least, that's my take on it.
I agree on your definition of likely voter SK1...nm - Liberty

Thank you.
I used the wrong moniker - SK

My apologies to the original SK1.

It's not even been 24 hours since the 2nd debate - and looks to me like

the lies tally from last night is not all that favorable for the Rominee. Patience is a virtue, so I'm told.

Poll: Americans Say We'd Be Better Off If Mitt Romney Won In 2012Jul 03, 2014
While Obama beat Romney by 4 percentage points, voters say a do-over in the 2012 election wouldn't be a bad thing. "Would Mitt (Romney) have been a better fit? More voters in hindsight say yes," Malloy said. Overall, 45 percent of voters say America would be better off if the White House went to the Republicans in 2012, compared to 38 percent who said we'd be worse off. And because it's World UFO Day, a 2012 survey indicated 65 percent of Americans think Barack Obama would be b ...

Conservatives Make Their Voices Heard After Poll Shows Romney SupportAug 23, 2012
Among African-Americans at Zero Percent. by Jason Howerton. "A new poll conducted by NBC and the Wall Street Journal shows that support for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney among black people stands at an incredible zero percent. Nada. Zilch. Zero. But in order for the poll to be accurate, one would have to assume that there are indeed “zero” African-Americans that stand with Mitt Romney. And while the folks at NBC or WSJ certainly aren’t obligated to justify their find ...

Ohio Gender Gap Poll Likely Explains Romney's Abortion Flip-flip.Oct 11, 2012
Plus a Bloomberg poll said women were moving toward Romney on economic issues but holding back on social issues, especially abortion, confirmed by other pols. So Romney stated in front of cameras that he has no abortion legislation in mind.  Which his campaign staff then routinely denied (following what is now a well-established pattern). Ryan also then said their position on abortion has not changed. Romney's previous positions have been that he is absolutely against abortion. That ...

Obama Urges GOP To Ignore Low-Income VotersDec 29, 2014

And there’s also an obligation on the part of the Republican Party to make sure that they are broadening their coaliti ...

By Stephen C.

Not quite. President Obama is still by far the most national politician in the United States, according to a new CNN poll [PDF link ...

Confirming the 2014 election zeitgeist, a new Gallup poll finds that Americans are fed up with ever-encroaching, corrupt and incompetent government, as represented by ObamaCare and other federal policies.   For the first time since Gallup has conducted polling, people say that the "biggest problem" in America is "the government." It topped all other categories, including terrorism. "2014 was the first year ever in Gallup records that dissatisfaction with government topped the list," the 8 ...

CNN Poll Shamefully Skewed. De-skew The Poll And It'sSep 11, 2012
The campaign to mislead the public, discourage conservative voters, etc. is underway, full bore. Do NOT believe ANY polls.  Think for yourself - and VOTE, regardless of any polls that might suggest that Obama has this sewn up.  The DNC had a disastrous convention and they're also trying to make that look like the best thing since conventions began. (You can tell from the desperation of his campaign strategy that HE knows he doesn't have it sewn up.) ...

Romney 48%, Obama 43%Apr 17, 2012
48 to 43 is pretty close. In a poll registered voters were asked if election was held today who would you vote for. 48 Romney and 43 for Obama. What this says is it's very close and it still gives me hope that the Romney haters don't outweigh the ones who have a clear mind and will vote based on what is best for the country. So all the haters can spin all they want. Reading so many posts below I had to take what was posted and go research for myself and found out that most of wh ...
