It was Obama 49, Romney 47% with LVs just before the RNC, and 52-43% w/ registered voters.

Consistent with a Romney convention bounce of 1-3% or so.

The so called "small bounce" from the Ryan pick has turned out to be no bounce at all. Instead, he permanently changed the race by about a point or two, a much better outcome.

2 things. 1) The bounce also "coincided" with many firms moving from Registered Voter to Likely Voter models, which may account for most of the movement... and its apparent permanence. 2) A bounce of 1 to 2 points is pretty hard to distinguish from statistical noise.

Lovin' that 52-45 margin with registered voters.  If Obama can kill it on the ground like he did in 2008 he's in good shape. 

Doesanyone know exactly what kind of questions pollster ask to determine a "likely" voter from a registered one?

NO WAY if Romney wins the Indies by 10% he`s losing only in a wishful thinking model

So, the long story short is if Obama loses, its because Democrats can't run campaigns.

I'm confused.  Did Romney not get any convention bounce, or is he close in recent national/state polls only because of his convention bounce?

Two words: early voting.

Obama and the Democrats are going to spend a ton more money trying to drive up turnout with early voting by mail, just like they did in 2008.  Making it easier to vote is the ultimate cure for apathy and it prevents anybody from changing their minds late.  

The fact that nobody is talking about it makes it our October surprise: results will be closer to the registered model than likely on the backs of early voting.  Obama's winning this thing, folks.

The RCP average was 4.6 points when Paul Ryan was nominated. Today it is .1 point.

I'm not buying a 7 point gap between RV's and LV's.  Would love to know what CNN is using for a LV screen.

And absolutely nobody cares about these made up numbers that you keep pulling out of your ass. Talk about a "wishful thinking model"...

Haven't been able to read through the poll until now. Here are more numbers. Convention appears to have helped Romney's (and Ryan's) favs.

56% of Registered Democrats are very, or extremely excited to vote.
62% of Registered Republicans are very, or extremely exicited to vote.

Obama favs among likely voters:
Favorable: 51% (-1)
Unfavorable: 48% (+1)

Romney favs w/ LVs
Favorable: 53% (+3)
Unfavorable: 43% (-3)

Ryan favs w/ LVs
Favorable: 49% (+4)
Unfavorable: 38% (-1)

Biden favs w/ LVs
Favorable: 46% (-)
Unfavorable: 47% (-)

Who would better handle...
the economy? Romney 51-45%
foreign policy? Obama 49-46%
Medicare? Obama 49-46%

Which one...
is a strong and decisive leader? Romney 48-43%
has an optimistic vision for country's future? Romney 47-43%
is in touch with middle class? Obama 49-43%
is in touch with problems facing women? Obama 56-36%

Among registered voters 46/36% said GOP convention made them less likely to vote for GOP, 13% said it made no difference. The question wasn't asked of likely voters.

Very, and what I was expecting.

A good convention, but nothing to write home about.
