So, I guess you could say Obama is up by double-digits there.

Not really. If you have a look at the average of all recent Michigan polls it seems Rasmussen is spot on this time.

Rasmussen is junk, so we can throw this out, right? ;)

What happened to Mitt's "home state advantage"? :(

Indeed. Obama is up by more than 8.

I guess we need at least one board where we can all get our hack on.

Dream on.  2012 isn't a 2008 replay

This one is a keeper, at least in contrast to prior polls in Michigan. It is consistent with a poor news cycle for the President, and that happens on occasion. It's "likely-voter" which isn't perfectly realistic at this stage in the year of a Presidential election.

The EPIC-MPRI poll is an obvious farce.
