Except the Democrat Party, who's clearly worried this state might slip away

I don't see Romney campaigning in Louisiana, Mississippi, or Texas...but I do see Obama going to NH AGAIN.

How can you compare NH to all those states. NH isn't a Democratic stronghold you know.

Rasmussen is just being Rasmussen. Minnesota isn't in play.

They shouldn't be worried; I don't think Pheu Thai has much support here.

I swear, it's literally every state where Rasmussen shows Obama about 4-5 pts lower than the average of the all the others.  

53-44 in reality.  Take that to the bank.

What's does that mean? Rasmussen is mimicking th national average in just about every swing state.

What it means is they like to show some states closer than other pollsters show them, especially states that aren't in play at all. We can't forget that Hawaii Senate poll from 2010.

The poll may be more accurate than some think, but I feel like Romney has a ceiling in Minnesota of about 45-46%, so It really won't matter much cause Obama will win the state anyway.

This would more or less be line with Rasmussen's current national poll showing Romney +4. Whether you actually believe Romney is up by 4% nationally is up to you (I don't personally).

Back to Rasmussen Bizarro World I guess. Obama's ahead by more than 5% here, obviously.

This poll isn't as outlandish as you think.  Minnesota is a D+2 state.  In theory, Obama should be up by about 4 if the national race is tied.  Granted, Minnesota might swing more to the Democrats this cycle, but that's not guaranteed.
