Messina: Forget The Tied National Polls, We're Winning

Obama campaign manager Jim Messina says forget the polls !!!

Now he says that, but when Obama had commanding leads before it was not a problem.

I just bet dimes to donuts that they are scared stiff right about now. Real scared.

Obama campaign manager Jim Messina told reporters on Saturday that despite national tracking polls showing the president and Romney tied, Obama is still winning.

"In all the battleground states, we continue to see all our pathways there," he told the White House pool at an Obama fundraiser in Milwaukee. "We're either tied or in the lead in every battleground state 45 days out."

Messina, who drove from Chicago to Wisconsin to be with Obama on his first trip to a state that appears to have come into play when Paul Ryan was selected to be Romney's running mate, predicted that the national polling will get even closer, but that the president's lead will hold in key swing states.......

And with all the chatter about the polls being Left-Slanted, we need to wonder if Romney has the commanding lead

He's right, though. It looks pretty good for Obama in Florida, Ohio, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Michigan. Wisconsin, Virginia, Colorado, Nevada when looking at current polls. A lot of the leads are slight and by no means insurmountable, even within the margin of error.

A lot of the polls are done locally and can't really be blamed on national media bias.

With the national popular vote, if Romney eats 5% of Obama's 08 votes in NY and Cali it will make a huge difference in that number, but none in the election. Electoral college is nonsense.

It's going to be really close most likely, but odds favor Obama right now.
