| Mitt Romney continues to out-poll every winning presidential challenger since 1968. The latest Gallup daily tracking poll of likely voters has Mr. Romney leading Barack Obama by seven points, 52% to 45%. Mr. Romney’s total is greater than Richard Nixon’s 44% at this point in the race in 1968, Jimmy Carter’s 49% in 1976, Ronald Reagan’s hard to believe 39% in 1980 (Carter was ahead with 45%), George H. W. Bush’s 50% in 1988, and Bill Clinton’s 40% in 1992. In 2000 and 2008 George W. Bush and Barack Obama both tracked at a within-error 51%.

This is great news but it isn't official until we see Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews, Keith Olberman (wherever he is hiding..) announce that Romney has won the election and they start crying on air, and/or go apoplectic with rage.
You are kidding yourself if you think this is going to be some kind of blow out - it will be very very close and 270 electoral votes for Romney is still very much in question even with winning the popular vote.
Call me cautiously optimistic with this news.

While this is very good news, other news I have read today at a couple of sites talked about how 2 separate TV stations (1 in Texas and 1 in Ohio - both CBS I believe) had Election night poll numbers running on the bottom of their screens showing Obama winning. WTH???
A few comments tried to allay fears by calling them dry runs for election night - however, why not use zeroes all the way through instead of putting figures in? Is the MSM already setting up the fraudulant win?

I'm glad to read this. But, still, very, very cautious. Our service personnel at breakfast(we go practically every morning to a casino restaurant)are all union members. They very seldom mention politics- but they are only human, too. Yesterday, for the first time, I overheard and raging indictment of Øbama in a rather strange getting-off-shift impromptu meeting. They were all cursing Øbama! Declaring shame and disgust in regards to him. Wife and I were quite pleased. One of our favorite waiters came over and shook his head, saying under his breath so only we could hear, "If that jackass Øbama gets re-elected, this nation is toast!" We smiled sweetly, nodded and went on with our very pleasant breakfast. Union member! In Las Vegas! Øbama really is toast!

Re poster #24. My son here in Biloxi also works in a casino as a bartender. And you may know that a large part of their pay is tips they receive. They are not unionized but recently they have had a big hassle with the IRS that wants to raise their tip allocation simply to raise the amount they will have to pay in income tax. But Obozo isn't raising taxes on the middle class. How about the lower classes?
I'm not really hung up on the polls. What I'm more afraid of is voter fraud. Just this morning, I saw a news article about a Rep. in Arkansas passing out 1/2 pint bottles of a cheap vodka in order to garner votes. They were caught. If that happens there, it can happen anywhere. And in close states, it can make a difference.

Early voting is underway in several states. I know it's purely anecdotal, but at the boundary of the polling location where they hand out flyers and "vote for me" pamphlets, the local TEA Party people were already out of the conservative voter's guide sheets and were asking people to please return them when they were done voting. This is in NC.

According to reports, more than 2600 people over the age of 110 have already voted in North Carolina:
In a radio interview with local WBT Anchor Tara Servatious, Susan reports that she has been keeping track of the number of votes in North Carolina of individuals over the age of 110 years and apparently we have quite a few, over 410 of the 110 year olds–to be exact– actually voted via absentee ballot on October . Yes indeed, now it would appear that good ole NC has the market cornered on the Centenarian vote. At latest count, Susan has garnered a total Absentee Ballot vote of over 2,660 people over the age of 110. Someone contact the Guiness Book and warm up the Ford, the Fountain of Youth exists and its right here in lovely NC. What’s worse, the Examiner reports that the Guinness Book of World Records is going to have to be updated soon to reflect North Carolina’s apparent expansive population of old people:
When peering a little more deeply at the numbers we find that an astounding 2,374 people between the ages of 94 and 100 have already voted in the NC election to date. While an even more astounding 832 votes came from those individuals aged 112. However, according to the Guinness book of world records, the oldest living person in the world, at present, lives in Japan and is 114 years old. It would seem obvious that, according to the NC vote registry, this old fellow might be nudged aside in the near future, especially considering the crop of spry 112 year-olds seemingly alive and well in the old North State. This problem might be solved by asking for some form of identification, but no voter ID laws exist in the state.

I live in what has become a predominately hispanic neighborhood in Ft Worth, TX. I did my own ifnormal "poll" today, based on yard signs. In a 6 block radius, I counted 10 Romney/Ryan/conservative Republican candidate yard signs. I counted about 6 Democrat signs (every one for a woman running for Congress - Wendy Davis)....and EXACTLY ONE Obama/Biden sign.

A National Rifle Association television ad targeting Democratic West Virginian Senator Joe Manchin for his work with President Barack and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to draft new gun control legislation uses a shaded photo of the African-American president that makes him appear darker and, according to some critics, more sinister. In the ad, Bloomberg´s face appears to be shaded, as well, but much less dramatically than the president´s Obama´s darker appearance in the ad is being compared to a controversial 1994 Time magazine cover

If there’s one thing we know about Americans, it’s that they love a winner. By extension, they can be very tough on those who don’t. I’ve often wondered whether that’s why so many people seem unwilling to give Jimmy Carter his due. Yes, Carter was president of the United States during four tumultuous years, 1977-’81. He had his share of crises to deal with: 52 Americans held hostage in Iran, the Soviets invading Afghanistan, stagflation, lineups for gasoline around the block thanks to a squeeze by the OPEC nations, not to mention Three Mile Island and the petty scandals

The controversial filmmaker whose crude Internet trailer was wrongly blamed by the White House for sparking last year´s deadly Benghazi attack vowed to finish his movie, which he said is aimed at fighting terrorism, not denigrating Islam. Breaking his silence from inside a facility under the authority of the federal Bureau of Prisons in southern California, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula told FoxNews.com in a series of phone interviews that his film "Innocence of Muslims" has been widely misunderstood, and not just in being singled out as causing the Sept. 11, 2012, attack

The Treasury Department loves redesigning our money. A new $20 bill began circulating a decade ago, the $10 was changed in 2006, and the $5 was modified in 2008.(snip)If the Treasury wants to change things, maybe it’s time to put a new president on the paper. In a poll released last week, CBS News and Vanity Fair magazine posed an interesting question: Which recent chief executive deserves the honor of a place on the currency? Ronald Reagan was the runaway favorite, with 38 percent. President Obama took 19 percent, but the questions were asked in April before the blizzard of scandals littered the landscape.

The fiftieth anniversary of the first woman in space is a fitting hook to look back over the long process of enabling gender-independent access to the final frontier. One of the interesting secondary tales associated with this theme is the campaign story offered by Hillary Clinton that, in 1961–2, she wrote to NASA about her interest on becoming an astronaut, and they dismayed and angered her by replying, “We don’t take girls.” (snip) The story is clearly politically useful, and comments on its actual authenticity have predictably split along partisan lines.

According to The New York Daily News, Dan Sandler was taken on Wednesday into Manhattan Supreme Court on attempted grand larceny, aggravated harassment and stalking charges. Sandler, 49, is being accused of incessantly contacting Girl Scouts staff with "alarming" and "bizarre" emails beginning in July 2012, said the Manhattan District Attorney, according to the Daily News.

Maybe, maybe not. During testimony on Capitol Hill Thursday, Attorney General Eric Holder was asked to assure that the phones of Congress had never been monitored by the Department of Justice in light of secret monitoring of reporters and 141 million Verizon Wireless customers. Holder refused to give an answer. “With all due respect, senator, I don’t think this is an appropriate setting for me to discuss that issue,” Holder said in response to a question from Sen. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) during a previously scheduled Senate hearing to discuss the Justice Department’s budget.

The House of Representatives voted 224–201 Thursday morning to deny funding for the Obama administration’s controversial Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy. The policy, which was implemented via executive order in June 2012, effectively assumes the enactment of the DREAM Act, legislation that has failed to pass Congress on multiple occassions, and has raised concerns about executive overreach: Republicans have argued that these orders amount to the selective enforcement of U.S. immigration laws that discourages enforcement against children who were brought to the United States illegally, or illegal immigrant adults who are not in any legal trouble.

In a typically maladroit statement, U.S. Secretary of State John F. Kerry recently complained that Israelis are too contented to end their conflict with the Palestinians: “People in Israel aren’t waking up every day and wondering if tomorrow there will be peace because there is a sense of security and a sense of accomplishment and of prosperity.” While Mr. Kerry misunderstands Israelis (Palestinian rejectionism, not prosperity, caused them to give up on diplomacy), he is right that Israelis have a “sense of security and … of prosperity.”

MOSCOW — Russia announced on Thursday that it will keep a fleet of about dozen navy ships in the Mediterranean Sea, a move President Vladimir Putin said is needed to protect his country’s national security. Putin said the plan should not be seen as saber rattling, but it comes as Moscow is serving as a key ally and arms supplier to Syrian President Bashar Assad during that nation’s civil war. The only naval base that Russia has in the Mediterranean and anywhere outside the former Soviet Union is located in Syria.

In the midst of the eruption of near-daily scandals involving the Obama administration, let us not forget that until just a few months ago, Hillary Clinton was the most significant persona within that administration besides the president himself. Let us not also forget that notwithstanding the scandal-grenades going off all around us, Mrs. Clinton diligently plans her run for the presidency, even while several of those scandals are obviously and entirely her responsibility, exposing the State Department during her tenure as an utter sewer of corruption, cronyism, and fatal incompetence.

SAN FRANCISCO - Lauren Grey didn´t think much about the gender recorded on her Illinois driver´s license until she went to test-drive a new car. Although she had been living as a woman for months and easily obtained a license with her new name and a picture reflecting her feminine appearance, Grey´s ID still identified her as male, puzzling the salesmen and prompting uncomfortable questions. "They are like, ´This doesn´t match.´ Then you have to go into the story: ´I was born male, but now I´m not,´" said Grey, 38, a graphic designer living in suburban Chicago.

Gang of Eight member Bob Menendez advised Republicans to accept legalization status for current illegal immigrants if they ever want to see another president from their party. “I would tell my Republican colleagues — both in the House and the Senate — that the road to the White House comes through a road with a pathway to legalization,” the New Jersey senator said on State of the Union this morning. “Without it, there’ll never be a road to the White House for the Republican party.” Menendez also warned of triggers on border security

N ot long ago, conservatives like myself were thrilled to find out that Fox News, often portrayed as the mouthpiece of the conservative movement, had parted ways with former governor of Alaska (and quitter) Sarah Palin. This was truly a cause for celebration. Those of us devoted to building a conservative movement capable of winning elections had come to view the former governor as the symbol of everything, and I do mean everything, wrong with the modern conservative movement. But now, Roger Ailes has rehired her. And in so doing, Ailes has issued a painful reminder that he cares far more

While our corrupt media has done its best to turn the page on Barack Obama´s myriad of scandals, the deep-dive numbers in a new Fox News poll are absolutely devastating for the president. These numbers also reflect what we are seeing in other polls and Obama´s overall approval ratings -- though the media are willfully ignoring reporting on both. In a Fox News column (Snip) Chris Stirewalt extrapolated these brutal numbers: -- 56 percent of voters believe Obama did not try to rescue the doomed garrison in Benghazi, Libya because he didn’t want to risk his re-election.

Over the years, I’ve read plenty of claims that we’re witnessing a “crackup” of liberals or conservatives (or sometimes both at the same time). Normally, I react by rolling my eyes. For me, “crackup” claims are a almost always hack way of expressing unjustified triumphalism. But now I think I see a crackup. Given the scandal-a-week Obama administration, you might think that the crackup, if any, is looming on the left. But that would be to ignore the left’s tendency to march more or less in lockstep through any scandal or storm. No, the crackup I see coming is among conservatives.

Among all the unanswered questions about the IRS’s illegal targeting of conservative organizations, one is most crucial: Who ordered this extreme scrutiny? Amazingly, IRS inspector general J. Russell George, responsible for the investigation asking those questions about the IRS, has testified that he did not obtain that information. Details of that testimony are interesting. Representative Tom Graves (R., Ga.) asked, “Have you asked the individuals who ordered them to use this extra scrutiny to punish, or penalize, or postpone, or deny?” George turns around to confer with his assistant. Just the fact that the inspector general

Hello, calling Sarah Palin! Has anyone seen her? Where is she? Has Sarah Palin left the building? Is the Palin magic gone forever? No. The Palin charisma and mass appeal are still alive and well. Certain people are born gifted with "It" -- something that compels you to watch them. Sarah Palin is one such individual. Though politically tarred, feathered, and run out of town on a rail by the left and a few spineless Republicans, I pray for the day when my favorite gladiator Sarah Palin returns to the arena.

Secret Service spooks are disguising themselves as Farmers to protect Barack Obama from terrorist threats at the G8 summit. They have even bought a fleet of Tractors ahead of the US President’s arrival in Northern Ireland tomorrow for the two-day meeting. The agents’ plan is to pose as local farmers in the sprawling fields around the five-star lakeside hotel complex hosting the huge event. But locals near the Lough Erne resort reckon it will not take any potential terrorists long to spot the spooks — as their sparkling tractors are all brand new. One said: “They reckon the vehicles will let them

Glamorous TV cook Nigella Lawson looks stunned to be attacked by her art collector husband Charles Saatchi during a vicious row at their favourite London restaurant. Fellow diners and passers-by at Scott’s in Mayfair were shocked to see the advertising multimillionaire reduce his celebrity wife to tears. Saatchi launched a tirade of angry words. Four times he grasped her around the neck with Nigella, 53, looking powerless and petrified. At first he used only his left hand, then both.
