Because a 1 point lead in advocacy polling is really something to hang your hat on.

"Let Freedom Ring USA" sounds like a reliable and non-partisan source.

Well if Obama trades VA for OH, Romney can win with just NH and IA.  That's actually pretty significant.

All of these polls, with the exception of PA, are within the margin of error. We don't know who is "winning" - can we stop trying to create stupid narratives here? Let's leave that to the Newsmax, Daily Caller and DailyKos's of the world.

And even there, this is not a good pollster.

Do they have a track record?

This is just another piece of data we can use to determine where the race stands. It is not the be-all, end-all poll, it just confirms what we've known about many of these states: 15 days out, they are all too close to call. The very definition of toss-ups.

I've seen some of their other polls this year, and the looked way off.

Any poll that has Romney ahead I find hard to believe.

Once again I am weirded out by the amount of third rate "Who?" pollsters lately.

If I am correct Let Freedom Ring is an advocacy group that produced multiple anti-obama ads in 2008 (such as this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shYr0uCpXWA). I believe that this may be the same organization, however I'm  not sure.
