So a majority thinks Mitt "Increase military spending, cut taxes and don't touch any major program" Romney has a better plan for the deficit? That's... interesting.

Americans are stupid.

I remember there was a poll a few weeks back that had like 1 in 10 Americans believed that PBS was a 3rd of the Federal budget.

Sometimes, you get the government you deserve.......

Tracking Polls:

Oct 16th Gallup = Romney +6
Oct 17th Gallup = Romney +7 = Romney Gains 1%

Oct 16th Rasmussen = Romney +1
Oct 17th Rasmussen = Romney +2 = Romney Gains 1%

Oct 16th TIPP = Obama +2
Oct 17th TIPP = Tied = Romney Gains 2%

Clearly the Obama/Crowley ticket is getting quite a bump

But seriously, it's only 1/7th, 1/3rd and 1/5th of the sample being post debate, but no bump here yet....
