  2. Romney does give amazing speeches and the audience is usually mesmerized and buzzed with excitement.

    1. read the last sentence.

    Methodology
    For each state, the map uses the average of all public telephone polls (internet polls are not included in the average) taken within 30 days of the most recent poll available in each state. For example, if the most recent poll in Ohio was taken on April 15, 2012, the average reflected on the map includes all polls conducted between March 15 and April 15, 2012. States within a three-point lead for the Republican or Democratic candidate are classified as toss-ups; states between a five-to-eight-point lead for the Republican or Democratic candidate are classified as "lean" for that candidate; states outside the eight-point lead are allocated to the respective party. Please note: for some states, the most recent polls available at this time are up to one year old and other states with no polling yet available have been classified Republican or Democrat based on their 2008 results.



    2. Ak, I know you are smarter than this.
    Therefore anyone reading this should realize the spinning we are seeing with respect to these polls.

    a. "average within 30 days of the most recent poll." is not inconsistent with some of the polls being many months old.

    b. You keep pointing out that Rasmuessen did not do as well on the senate races.

    but how about previous Presidential races...
    you already know the answer don't you.

    The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows Mitt Romney earning 45% of the vote and President Obama attracting 44% support. Six percent (6%) would vote for a third party candidate, while another five percent (5%) are undecided.

    Romney leads by two among unaffiliated voters, but 19% of unaffiliateds remain uncommitted to either candidate. Matchup results are updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update).

  7. Read the first sentence

    Most important and swing states like Ohio,FL ,PA etc have polls within 30 days.

    Now you are completely changing the context.
    You first held out the entire map as current.
    Now you are saying the states you care about are current.


    This is the last sentence which was contrary to your point...

    "Please note: for some states, the most recent polls available at this time are up to one year old and other states with no polling yet available have been classified Republican or Democrat based on their 2008 results"
