    NEWS FLASH: Obama NOT Crushing Romney in Swing States

    It seems this thread is necessary due to our fuzzy, lovable, obviously partisan moderator(s) refusal to change a thread title that was posted in error months ago. Instead of remedying the title and in spite of growing complaints, the demands were ignored and the misleading title remained. The people have spoken and have risen up against this so-called "democracy" found on PSD Politics. This lie cannot be tolerated any longer!

    Lead me to taking to the streets to voice your displeasure and picket the non-action performed by the elected moderators. (Okay, they weren't voted), but maybe they should be!

    The ugly truth (to our mods) is that Obama had at no time ever been "crushing" Romney since the polls were in effect showing Romney as the presumed candidate.

    Continue discussing this topic knowing that the race indeed is razor thin in all the battleground states and can go either way based on numerous polling data. Thanks and have a great day, citizens of PSD.

    I suppose it depends on your version of crushing. According the RCP, Obama is crushing Romney in the number of polls that go his way.

    In one of the most interesting polls that I see Obama is "crushing" Romney:

    Barack Obama to be re-elected President in 2012 57.1% $5.1M
    Mitt Romney to be elected President in 2012 41.6% $4.8M
    Apparently nearly a super majority of those polled feel that Obama deserves to be re-elected and just above 40% feel that Romney deserves to be elected.

    The word "crushed" is ultra subjective and unless something is a downright lie, like Obama killed a man, I'm certainly not going to change anything.

    For ****'s sake at least link a single poll in support of your claim.

    OOTP TKO League Milwaukee Brewers 2010-2032:
    2011-1655, .549 Win %
    10 NL Central Titles, 2 Wild Card 12 Total Playoff Appearances
    1 World Series Title (2021)



    Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonnet: I will end you.

    There you go people, the government has spoken. And with the weakest of justifications. This term of "crushes" approaches the Clinton definition of "is". Now I understand how and why this has been left up there - our moderator is so in the tank for Obama. This might qualify for the flimsiest excuse in PSD history. OMG!!!

    For the sake of fairness, can we get an independent moderator? Or at least an offsetting Republican? My goodness, dems just don't believe in fairness. Probably this is a reason why I don't vote for a D very often.

    Well that, and you're "independent."


    By the way? I think the moderation around here is often ridiculous, but even I'm not crazy enough to call them "the government."
