Obama's favorability is taking a big hit among Registered Voters: He's at 36/48%, while Romney's at 32/36%. So much for Mr. Likeable.

Romney's also seen at being better than Obama on:
economy (49-41%)
budget deficit (50-36%)
taxes (47-42%)
immigration (46-38%)
social issues (48-37%).



Oh my God, are you actually taking some of these numbers seriously?

Oh my god, like totally. And why not? They are well above the average pollster ranking. No need to discredit a poll just because you don't like it.

Again, this poll is substantially out of whack with the others. It has Obama's net unfavorables as well above Romney's. How many other polls show that?

I'm discrediting the poll because except for the topline and the numbers on 'economy' this is one of the most massive and flagrant outliers we've seen this year so far.

It's like one minute you're preaching from the pulpit at some exceedingly dull church; the next you're a giving a Womens' Studies lecture at Berkeley.
