How many indies and D’s did they include?

And THIS is in a time when Obama’s approval ratings have spiked.
Romney is the man. He’s got a great shot at beating Obama.
December 29th, 2011 at 11:39 am
If Romney wins next Tuesday, he can basically start his general election campaign, which will be a big boon for him. Can’t wait for the VP race to start!

Big Ole HUCKABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
I just can’t stop smiling!
December 29th, 2011 at 11:41 am
Senator Richard Burr of North Carolina has endorsed Romney.

If you haven’t notice, Mitt has been pretty much running a “general election” campaign all this year.
December 29th, 2011 at 11:43 am
Well I am thrilled about this, but I gotta feeling this is an murkier. Give me one or two more of these and i’ll buy in.
December 29th, 2011 at 11:43 am
It seems more of an outlier. Besides, you forget the effect of a Johnson run, which absorbs a significant fraction of Paul’s steady 8%’ers
December 29th, 2011 at 11:45 am
D’oh, strike murkier, replace with outlier. Blasted auto correct on phone.

MassCon.2:“And THIS is in a time when Obama’s approval ratings have spiked.”
That is the first thing that crossed my mind, as well. At a time when Obama’s numbers have gone up, Mitt leads him by six points. That has GOT to good news for the Republican party.
December 29th, 2011 at 11:52 am
This is great news. But it’s also strange that Obama takes such a plunge at a time when his approval numbers are improving.
December 29th, 2011 at 11:52 am
WOOOOOWWWWWW
December 29th, 2011 at 11:53 am
Oops — I see I’m being repetitious.

He needs to bandy about this poll in Iowa this week. It shouldd help seal the deal
December 29th, 2011 at 12:06 pm
Gallup: Romney 27, Gingrich 23
December 29th, 2011 at 12:12 pm
Great tool for Mitt in the lead up to Iowa. Wonder if Brandstad endorses him today or tomorrow. Didn’t he say earlier this week he would endorse? Did he give a day?
December 29th, 2011 at 12:14 pm
Not going to plan the victory party based on one good poll out of many, but this is great news…
Wonder if the Obama team is stepping up the planning meetings for their “weird” attack campaign.
Good luck to them. It won’t work.
December 29th, 2011 at 12:14 pm
If you take a general rule that 70-80% of the und. will break toward Romney, Romney wins between 56-60% of the vote. That would be an insane landslide! But, this is probably just an error the race will probably be much closer then that.

North Carolina even, how nice!
December 29th, 2011 at 12:16 pm
That interview with Wolf on CNN will definitely help Romney. btw, Michael Reagan was just on FNC saying he did not endorse Newt. He never endorses in a Primary. He also blasted Newt for saying he wouldn’t support RP if he won the Primary and would vote for Obama.
December 29th, 2011 at 12:17 pm
Gallup daily tracking for today, Mitt 27, Newt 23… GO MITT.. 4 point swing , Romneys way.
December 29th, 2011 at 12:21 pm
oh yeah baby. Mitt has opened up 4 pt lead in Gallup daily. Of course doesn’t mean a ton with Iowa around corner and trends, etc but feels good. Now lets get up to 30 and past it in the next few days before Iowa.
December 29th, 2011 at 12:21 pm
Obama needs diapers and a job.
December 29th, 2011 at 12:21 pm
The only thing that would make me regret my hardcore support for Romney is if he pardons the crooks of this administration…including Bam bam.
December 29th, 2011 at 12:31 pm

#25 You know, seeing Paul ahead of most of the others just brings a smile to my face. Kudos to him, he has worked hard for it.
December 29th, 2011 at 12:42 pm
huntsman doubled his support again
December 29th, 2011 at 12:59 pm
Waiting for Craigfer to start spamming his “Myth of Mitt Romney Electability” again…
December 29th, 2011 at 1:17 pm
Romney is unelectable.
Go Newt!
December 29th, 2011 at 1:36 pm
Somehow this is bad for romney. i am sure of it.
December 29th, 2011 at 2:01 pm

Hah!
As an aside, I’m pretty sure Governor Romney pardoned exactly zero criminals.
