Townhall.com–Let’s start your Thursday off right with a flurry of new polling data. First, the national numbers. Rasmussen’s daily tracker shows Governor Romney leading President Obama by four points among likely voters:
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows Mitt Romney attracting support from 47% of voters nationwide, while President Obama earns the vote from 43%.
Rasmussen also has fresh data out of Ohio showing both the presidential and the Senate races exactly tied. Gallup’s latest tracker also has Romney ahead among registered voters, leading Obama 47-45. The president’s job approval/disapproval rating is 45/49. Meanwhile, Purple Insights is out with a new poll of swing state voters, which shows a bump in support for Romney. The former Governor has taken a small lead in three of the four key states surveyed. Before we delve into those specifics, here are some overall numbers from the twelve battleground states covered (New Hampshire, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Colorado, New Mexico and Nevada):
Head to head: Romney 47, Obama 46
Obama Job approval/disapproval: 43/51
Obama favorability/unfavorability: 47/49
Romney favorability/unfavorability: 45/48
Biden favorability/unfavorability: 41/48
Ryan favorability/unfavorability: 45/39
Notice the only name above water in that bunch. (Caveat: His “not sure” numbers are also the highest). Romney-Ryan lead Obama-Biden on the economy and on which ticket can deliver real change. Obama-Biden lead on Medicare, but not by much — and this poll was taken before Romney began his onslaught against Obama’s cuts. More people support the Romney-Ryan budget than Obama-Biden’s. As for the four swing states highlighted in this survey, Romney is now ahead in Florida (by 1), Ohio (by 2) and Virginia (by 3). Obama holds a three-point lead in Colorado. Also revealing, in the three states leaning toward Romney, Obama’s job approval is precisely the same: A perilously low 42 percent.

"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich.

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E.
