President Obama leads RMoney 51-41 in most recent Pew Poll.
Lots of interesting numbers to pore through in this newly released poll from the Pew Research Center
The one that sticks out for me however is this one:
By a 52% to 37% margin, more voters say they have an unfavorable than favorable view of Mitt Romney.
In Pew's polling since 1988 the only major party candidates for President that had upsidedown approval ratings were Dubya's dad (at -12) and Bob DOLE (at -11).
Needless to say, both lost. And Mitt is LOWER. Even Dubya was +14 in 2004 (yeah, I know, unbelievable that anyone liked the way he was leading this country, let alone a majority).
And this is taken prior to RMoney's recent overseas debacle.
Most specifics from the poll after the orange croissant.
The only positives for the Publican party are:
1. Their people appear to be more engaged than us in the blue section; and
2. The President's lead in the "Swing States" is only 4 points, 48-44.
And there has been a fair amount of ink spilt that Pew's national polling has been more favorable than other national polls.
Oyy, back in a few when time permits, silly job. In the meantime, be sure to check out the poll, which again, has Barack +10 and doesn't even reflect Mitt's excellent adventure on the other side of the pond.
