Anyone with 50% approval does not trail in the top line, it doesn't add up. I'm pretty sure Romney's approval would still be underwater, even in this poll, but it doesn't appear it was provided.

If a CBS Poll showed Obama seven points ahead, then all the liberals on this forum would be saying, "Makes sense". But if a CBS Poll shows Romney three points ahead, they say, "Outlier".

I've seen three national polls in the last few days since Obama's gay marriage "evolution", and they've shown Romney +7, Romney +8 and Romney +3, respectively. But of course they're all outliers, right?

And polls that show Obama up are rejected by conservatives on the forum as wrong, so that argument can go around and around. What is clear is that conservatives want to accept this particular poll despite obvious flaws with it. It makes no sense how 50% approval translates into a 2% deficit in the top line. Be realistic.
