A new Gallup daily tracking poll show Mitt Romney leading President Obama by two percentage points. In an early appearance on MSNBC's Morning Joe, Lawrence O'Donnell said we should expect similar numbers as a we get even closer to November.
"It's gonna be close at two or three points and it'll tighten," he said. The panel agreed it will come down to electoral math in a few key districts. The Last Word host argued there's "no evidence" that the Hilary Rosen flap changed any vote, particularly with women.
He also offered Donny Deutsch advice on how to "elevate a conversation." It's all about the socks, people.

Ha, I think Gallup is crazy, but that's just me. Best to break it down into groups. Like women, minorities, independents and others. THEY will decide this race. Oh, does Halperin ever smile? Maybe he's related to Posh. ;-)
jenny the poll obama leads in women and minorities romney leads in white men and independentsput them together and romney leads obama
If those whom they asked are part of the 85% then they are really blind or brainwashed if they have chosen Romney. Romney is not for the best interest of the bottom 85% who only shares 7% of the wealth. I guess they want to share less? That is moronic at best. If the bottom 85% start thinking that they can by changing policies share a lot more they will not vote GOP which policies have distribute the wealth, 93% of the wealth to be exact among the top 15% of the population. All by policies adopted that keep salaries low and prices high.
sorry afro the people say youre wrong
If all those Republicans have all that experience like Mitt Romney says why can they do the Christian thing and do what is right? Why haven't they done it? Since Bush this country's congress and the GOP leadership have just block every effort to bring this country to better standing. If they were really patriotic and love the majority of this country's people, they would have already cooperated, with knowledge to improve on policies that have kept the bottom 85% of the population in dire straits, sharing only 7% of the wealth of the country.
It just shows they really do not want to help the majority, they are just looking after themselves. So there is Obama who is fighting for the middle class and is unmovable in his resolve and they see that as presumptuous. The fact that Obama is looking for the benefit of others is beyond the comprehension of the conservative Republican mentality. They cannot even accept that at least one person can finally start doing what is right.
We should give Obama a cooperative congress and senate. Hey if we can accept the injustices of Bush we can try some new policies that will not send anyone into harms way for a vendetta war and that has the good of the majority of people in mind. Those policies will help us do better even the wealthy.
During his time in the Senate and while running for president, Obama received a total of $77,051 from the oil giant and is the top recipient of BP PAC and individual money over the past 20 years, according to financial disclosure records.

The only problem with your statements are that they are wrong. Obama promised he would cut the national debt in half by the end of his first term he has just about doubled it. The enconomic bail out of all the financial institutions he should have let them fail like every other small company does.
start packing michele

Hate to break it to you but Obama is actually losing the gender gap advantage from what Democrats usually enjoy.
In 1996 Clinton running for reelection (before his Monica thing with the Paula Jones controversy thrown in for good measure), he enjoyed a 16% plurality of the women's vote. When Gore ran in 2004 he enjoyed a 14% plurality of the women's vote over Bush and Nadar. When Obama ran in 2008 his plurality on this normal cushion for the Democrat Party, his plurality slipped to 12.5% (perhaps as a result of the backlash evidend in the discouraged Hilliary voters?).
Now, in the polls 6 months before the election, he is down to 12% and falling steadily now that the War on Women has been shown to be the farce that the Dems produced with a tricked up Sandra Fluke, girlfriend of the son of a wealthy Democrat Party supporter whisked up to and all Democrat show hearing as she made her case for free contractives as an entitlement! Because she was a starving student, who once she graduated from her prestigious law school she would step directly into s six figured salaried job. Too, her seat before Congress was not even cooled off before she was off with her wealthy boyfriend on Spring Break to California beaches for a little well earned R&R. Give me a break.
93% of the 5,000,000 jobs lost since Obama took office were lost by women. So you do the math as to just how many will be voting for Obama, and when the Supreme Court gets through dismantling that monstrositity of a nonaffordible health care bill passed by the Democrat controlled Congress (unaffordable to men and women with its higher taxes and higher premiums), no copay free U.S. Department of Health and Human Services directed program will be there to "buy" womens votes. So, you do the math!
The so called War on Women was nothing more than a "Trojan" War, and Fluke was no Helen! LOL!
Since Mr. Lawrence O'Donnell is ignorant enough to think he can belittle a church and attempt to use it in an election process, I was just wondering if he wanted Harry Reid removed from office. He is an active Mormon. Or does it only matter what Christian church you affiliate with to a person who happens to be a Republican. What an idiot O'Donnell is!! The nation laughs at his ignorance!!
Mr. Lawrence you are a communist jackass. How dare you even suggest getting rid of the US constitution as you did duruing the defeat of the big unions and democrats in Wisconsin. Until a leagel Constitutional convention has been convened this is the way our founding fathers who signed thier own death warrents to this document if they had been caught or the revolution had not been sucessful. You are a communist you and you people who think like you are the biggest danger to the United States and what it stands for Take your UN and get the hell out of the United States if you hate it so much.
