Here is the rolling Stone article on Springsteen's coming to Ohio to support Obama...

LOL...it was a poll by the Washington COMPost...They oversampled democrat by +9D --- 35D - 26R - 33I.
Here is a more scientific, non liberal slanted poll : This should have Obama voters worried big time because anytime a sitting president is polling under 50% they break towards the challenger so in this case it will be a huge defeat for Barack. Wenzel Strategies is a public opinion research firm, established in 2005 and based in Columbus, Ohio that works with political, business, non-profit, media, and government clients nationwide. It conducted a telephone survey of likely General Election voters in Ohio. The poll was fielded on Oct. 4-5, 2012, and included1072 respondents. The survey carries a margin of error of +/- 2.96 percentage points. Republican U.S. Senate candidate Josh Mandel has a 46% to 42% lead over first-term incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown, with 13% undecided. This represents a break-out for Mandel, as Brown has led by a small margin in this race for months, other polling has shown. In the race for President, the public opinion bounce from his strong debate performance last week in Denver has washed over Ohio – Romney has moved ahead of Obama by a single-point, 48% to 47%, with 5% yet undecided. THIS SURVEY INCLUDES A PARTISAN SAMPLE of 38% Democrat, 37% Republican, and 25% independent voters.

Dude, how old are you? The Washington Post has been on a 20 year shift to being a conservative paper now. Are you reflecting back to the Watergate years?
Watts October 15, 2012 at 06:38 pm
Also, given that Obama has a huge lead in early voting already, the oversampling would appear to be in line (or possibly even underestimating) what actual turn out is likely to be:

Watts, how about you google the question "Is the Washington Post Liberal?" And see what you come up with. If you think it is not liberal, I can't help that one...
BTW, this was in your article.....not sure you should take the supposedly huge lead too seriously. "George Mason University professor Michael McDonald, an expert on early voting, said it was difficult to tell how the results so far could affect the outcome of the race."
helen October 15, 2012 at 07:56 pm
Again, thank you, Joe. A voice of reason & facts. These people need to read & watch the interviews recently given by reporters from CNN, CBS & other news outlets concerning the liberal bias and squashing of stories not complimentary to the WH. The CBS reporer was attacked & raped in Cairo during the so-call Arab Spring----there was no outrage in the US media.
As for celebritites. They will come to your town to pander for the vote but do not think the townsfolk are worth any other consideration. Whyall the celebrity worship? When did they earn a PH.D. in Political Science? People do not understand that the ballot box is mighty when used properly and an enslaver when used in ignorance.
Watts October 15, 2012 at 07:57 pm
"how about you google the question "Is the Washington Post Liberal?" And see what you come up with."
I think that you are listing to the wrong Michael McDonald. This is the Michael McDonald that is singing to you... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDWGKQcQ8zw

It's obvious that Facts + liberal thinking do not mix. I apologize for my factual information that confused you. I mean it came from your article (if you read the whole thing) I noticed also you keep pimping your link to the skewed polls around other Patch articles.....you saw a tsunami a few years when the Congress picked up a huge amount of Republican seats to take over. Wait till this election is over. You won't know what hit you. You better rubberize your living room walls and take all of your sharp objects out of reach on election night.
Robert October 16, 2012 at 02:33 pm
Please don't vote for Democrats. They are blindly following the Marxist Obama and his Marxist cretins. This is no longer the party of JFK and Truman. It has been commandeered by radical leftists and marxists. You can vote for Tyranny with the marxist president that we have, or you can choose liberty and vote Republican. Make no mistake, if you vote Democrat we will be going down a path never intended by our founders. A path of complete government invasion into our lives. The path that their motto "Forward" invokes. You don't have to become a republican to vote against their socialist agenda,. You can choose to stay Democrat or Independent. But we need you in this fight to save our country and to preserve our liberties for this and other generations. Help us send this message and follow your hearts.
Want more proof that Obama is a Marxist? Just look at his campaign slogan: Forward! Classic code language used by these and every Marxist since Marx and Engels. Look it up in Wikipedia. You will find it. It has its own section for "Forward " Do you think that it is just an accident or coincidence that they chose Forward? Or is it because it is ingrained in every fiber of their Marxist indoctrinated bodies? Vote for Liberty Not Tyranny!! God Bless the USA!
helen October 16, 2012 at 02:53 pm
Correct, Robert. We have persons going to the ballot box that have been indoctrinated by the state schools in this Marxism. There is fraud & corruption, while our soldiers cannot receive the .absentee ballots on time. Remember that 50 years ago the Soviet Union proclaimed they would conquer us without firing a shot. They had KGB agents in place for decades in academia, media, entertainment & union leader positions. Uri Bezmenov writes about this in his book---his interviews are also on You Tube.
He says the US was easy to infiltrate & they could not believe how gullable we were.
Jack Kelly October 16, 2012 at 02:58 pm
"Losers Blame."
Which makes Republicans losers, too. And please don't tell us that Republicans don't blame anyone for anything.
Jack Kelly October 16, 2012 at 03:00 pm
I love people who cite companies (from a partisan website) to try to make a point. But, the only point they've made is they're ignorant on what they're talking about.
Jack Kelly October 16, 2012 at 03:01 pm
"The propaganda machine also known as MSM ...."
Just like Fox News Channel then, huh? Stay stupid, right-wing nuts.
Jack Kelly October 16, 2012 at 03:05 pm
The country IS running on its' own. Please tell us the last time Congress did any work? Speak up over the crickets, wingnut.
Oh, I can't help but laugh at people like you who love to call someone who is the President a "moron", but yet you have no clue how the branches of government work. The prime demographic of the modern Republican Party: morons.
Jack Kelly October 16, 2012 at 03:06 pm
"A voice of reason & facts."
Please stop. You're embarrassing yourself "helen" (no wonder you're only using a first name...don't want to embarrass those who know you by using a last name). You wouldn't know 'fact' if it was frying in a pan.
Jack Kelly October 16, 2012 at 03:10 pm
OMG. Shut up you ignorant, uneducated broad. Are you related to that Republican nutbag broad Kathleen who blogs on here? Because you sound JUST AS UNEDUCATED (borderline brain-dead) as she is.
Please put another layer of tin foil on your head and stifle it. Good grief. Your stupidity has set women back about 50 years. And it's unfair for people like you to bash the schools. It's not their fault you failed to learn anything and chose to remain a moron. You haven't a clue what marxism is. Typical whiny-arse Republican today. Using big words you don't know the meaning of. Oh, and I'm not a democrat either. So I guess that screws any chance of regurgitating something you heard from either Palin or Hannity.
helen October 16, 2012 at 03:20 pm
Jack, you proof the point of "tolerant" liberals, not tolerating any point of view other than their own. Liberals resort to name calling, insults and demeaning the person, rather than offering a counter argument. I always give liberals the last word, since sooner or later people reading the diatribe recognize this ploy. Have a nice day.
opinionsarelikenoses October 16, 2012 at 03:27 pm
Jack, no no....you have to be a democrat...just look at all the hate and anger you have, and all with absolutely no facts to back that up with. You are definitely not an Independent because All Independents I know have a depth of intelligence.
When you find yourself, let us know and we'd love to converse facts with you, not sling mud. Regards...
Wallst October 16, 2012 at 03:42 pm
Please don't vote for Republicans. They are blindly following fascism as they did with gw. They are no longer the party of Reagan. It has been commandeered by radical right wing tea baggars. You can vote for a Taliban-type government or you can vote for freedom (choice, womens health, gay rights, etc.) and the road to recovery by voting Democrat. Make no mistake, if nyou vote Republican we will be going down a path that we went that got us into the biggest financial mess (second only to the great depression) in our nations history. A complete invasion of our principals. The path that their motto "Believe in America" invokes, meaning believe in the wealthy only, and forget about the 47%. You don't have to become a Democrat to vote against their fascist agenda, you can choose to stay Republican or Independent. But we need you in this fight to save our country and to preserve our liberties for this and other generations. Help us send this message and follow your hearts.
Want more proof that Romney/Ryan are fascists? Just look at the Republican platform! God Bless the USA!
Robert October 16, 2012 at 04:08 pm
Wallast: Fascists? Seems to me you are just a little upset that I simply pointed out Obama's Marxist associations and his upbringing. You of course have gone to the extreme with no facts at all behind you. Typical angry radical liberal. You can't deny Obama's record or his philosophy. He is on the record. George Bush never had Christmas ornament that went against the general principles of liberty either. He respected the office of the president and the trust of the American people. Sorry you lose. Wrap the tin foil back around your head and crawl into your hole.

Bruce Springsteen is an anti-American Jackass and always has been. How anyone listens to that noise is beyond me.
