This had to hurt

FOX News' Bob Beckel says if Gallup's daily tracking poll of likely voters is correct then the election is over and Mitt Romney has won.

"But if those numbers are correct, it is over. It is over. So I mean, you're not going to bring Romney back under 50% from 52%, not a challenging candidate," Beckel said on FNC's "The Five" Thursday evening.



BOB BECKEL: It's over. I don't have anything else to say, it's over. It's over.

DANA PERINO: Do you think it's real?

BECKEL: Do I think it's real?

ANDREA TANTAROS: You have to admit Bob, there is panic. I talked to a senior Democrat in the greenroom just a couple hours ago and I said, 'Shoot straight with me, how much panic is there?' And he said, 'A lot.'

BECKEL: I would assume, If I were looking at those numbers and I was managing a presidential campaign, I would be upset on that you're panicked. But if those numbers are correct, it is over. It is over. So I mean, you're not going to bring Romney back under 50% from 52%, not a challenging candidate. So if that's correct, I don't necessarily buy that it is correct.

TANTAROS: Now you don't buy the polls.

BECKEL: No, no, no, no, no. Look, I have a great deal of admiration for Gallup. But you got to remember, it is outside the margin of error. He's outside the margin of error, but still it's plus or minus 4%. So it may be 48, I don't know the answer to that.

This might be another reason it is over

9:06PM EDT October 15. 2012 - WASHINGTON — Mitt Romney leads President Obama by four percentage points among likely voters in the nation's top battlegrounds, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds, and he has growing enthusiasm among women to thank.

As the presidential campaign heads into its final weeks, the survey of voters in 12 crucial swing states finds female voters much more engaged in the election and increasingly concerned about the deficit and debt issues that favor Romney. The Republican nominee has pulled within one point of the president among women who are likely voters, 48%-49%, and leads by 8 points among men.

The battle for women, which was apparent in the speakers spotlighted at both political conventions this summer, is likely to help define messages the candidates deliver at the presidential debate Tuesday night and in the TV ads they air during the final 21 days of the campaign. As a group, women tend to start paying attention to election contests later and remain more open to persuasion by the candidates and their ads.

That makes women, especially blue-collar "waitress moms" whose families have been hard-hit by the nation's economic woes, the quintessential swing voters in 2012's close race.

"In every poll, we've seen a major surge among women in favorability for Romney" since his strong performance in the first debate, veteran Democratic pollster Celinda Lake says. "Women went into the debate actively disliking Romney, and they came out thinking he might understand their lives and might be able to get something done for them."

While Lake believes Obama retains an edge among women voters, the changed views of Romney could be "a precursor to movement" to the Republican candidate, she says. "It opens them up to take a second look, and that's the danger for Obama."

So much for the War on Women :wink:

Obama spent millions trying to destroy oops "KILL" Romney and one good debate preformance erased all the damage his hundreds of millions did. And that is why all Obama has left is Big Bird and Binders. :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Like Romney said "Obama's speech is brought to you by the letter O and the number 16,000,000,000" :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

So much for the War on Women

the average moderate/center left woman has more fear of sending a child off to war then not getting contraception.

in the foreign policy debate, Romney has to critical points he could make...

1. that he is not taking US to war...

2. that Obama is inept.. and that has brought US to the brink of war.



as easy as it looks .. anyone would have trouble doing both...
and both are crucial to a debate win...

but in my opinion.. Romney will have to deal more with liberal warmongering fear in the debate to win the election...

if he can do that, then Obama can bomb. all the terrorists he wants from here to the election, and each one will look like a desperate attempt to kill his way to the re-election..

Romney needs to go for the election win and not a debate win...
