I remember when they surged for Palin.
And if a single debate is enough to landslide public opinion that much.. Are you not worried about the next two debates?
I mean, to me it's a bit odd how the anti-Obama crowd whines so much about "The Messiah" but then jumps up and down like little girls at a One Direction concert when Mitt Romney delivers a speech and doesn't complain about how half the country thinks "they're entitled to food."
Other than intentionally trying to start a bit battle with this thread, as demonstrated by your closing line, what was the point of this?
Bruce is for Obama?
Yes. Very much so. Has been since long before the 2008 election.
Yes its an act of Desperation! Cant you see it?

Uh.. What is Bruce desperate about, exactly, that would make him support the president?
Not sure I'd use that word, exactly. He's still ahead in Ohio even if he's being out-spent by about $18 million in ads.
But this is a campaign and campaigns use rock stars all the time. I'm sure that mitt Romney can get Ted Nugent to play for his events. Or Dave Mustane. Or Charlie dan... Yeah he's pretty screwed in the star power department, isn't he?
Is that an invitation or do consider any post that disagrees with you "trolling"?
Yeah,those stars are in touch with the average Americans :roll:
And the Romneys... are?
The guy who said that nobody dies "in their apartment because they don't have health insurance" and the woman who spat "we've told you people all you need to know about our financial situation" at Robin Roberts.
THOSE two are "in touch with the average American?"
We're talking about Mitt Romney, who had to be shown how to remove a shopping cart from the row of them and when we exited a hardware store on that odd photo-op he did, he said he just bought "uh... hardware stuff."
THAT guy is "in touch with the Average American?
ok. :?
/insert moments it takes me to regain use of my eyes after rolling them so far back into my head I actually saw my brain./
I'm going to say that the guy who wrote "Born in the USA," "Glory Days," "Radio Nowhere," "We Take Care Of Our Own," "Born To Run," "Wrecking Ball" and has been called "The Boss" and a "working class hero" since the 70s is in touch with the average American. The one whose albums have been hailed as giving a voice to the working people of America and wrote songs about their experiences post 911, in the middle east...
OH... and that "Born in the USA" album that was about Vietnam and DIDN'T have a song about lounging around in France the whole time?
I think he's probably more "in touch with the average American" than Mitt Romney.
Bruce Springsteen is rich. Like... probably richer than Mitt Romney. A LOT richer. Mitt Romney has an estimated net-worth of about 500 Million dollars. Springsteen's is estimated at closer to 1 Billion (writing all those songs and owning your own publishing will do that after 35 years. Ask Paul McCartney and Yoko Ono about that). And yet he doesn't seem to worry about that "socialist" taking away his money. And he's made it his life's work to tell the stories of Average Americans.
So... I respectfully disagree with your assessment.
Charlie Daniels is a dick but he's also been touring the small theaters for about 40 years and that's brought him up close and personal with a lot of average Americans. I think you can say the same for Ted Nugent... maybe even more so.
Dave Mustane is a big cry baby, however.
Romney has had a MASSIVE surge with black voters where he now has a full 1% of African American support.

if obama wins ohio it is pretty certain that romney can't win.
that is the math...
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
How can he show empathy for the poor when he is a fortunate son.. I don't think Obama is the greatest president of all time but it's a HUGE error of judgement to install the country in the hands of ANOTHER fortunate son who is VERY begrudging of the 'unworthy' poor and middle class. My non bias side thinks Obama will win in but it will be close. All I'm saying if/when Romney is elected don't come back on the moving train and complain (like people did about bush) when he becomes just like George Bush Sr and Junior.

At this point, I feel like Romney probably wins Ohio. Most polls have Romney within one point in Ohio and this usually spells trouble for an incumbent because the undecided voters almost always break in favor of the challenger. It's very cliche' to say what I've just said, but it's true.
New voter registration numbers favoring republicans, as well as data on early voting so far in Ohio are very similar to the numbers from the 2004 presidential election. Of course, Bush won Ohio in 2004.
Minnesota - yes, that Minnesota - is within four points in one of the latest independent, non-media polls that was released yesterday. Romney won't win Minnesota (Even Reagan lost Minnesota in 1984), but if a state such as Minnesota is rather tight, then that spells trouble for Obama in more moderate swing states. Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan are not safe states at this point for Obama either.

Uh... Actually, Polls have him on average up 3, FiveThirtyEight has him at a 70% chance of winning Ohio and polls have shown that 1 in 5 people have already voted early, 59% were Democrats.
I'm not calling anything yet. This campaign has belonged to the media from day 1... they have had a blast pumping up the drama, bringing in "specialists" and "analysts" and random Tweets to dial up the drama. While... in one way that's a good thing (people are actually engaged and we might have a higher voter turn-out than usual) but in another way... it's been annoying to watch every tiny non-story get cast as a "game changer."
Just like the non-story about Barack Obama in a five year-old video speaking to people of New Orleans sounding "too black" and Paul Ryan posing in shorts and a backwards baseball cap. Nobody cares about those things but the media has been on the constant search for the new "devastating new development" which has turned this into less of a political campaign and more of a reality show.

With poll numbers this close, whether the poll has Romney up by a bit or Obama up by a bit, it tends to say that the undecided voters and whichever base shows up the strongest will decide the election. All indications show that republican voter enthusiasm is much stronger this year than in 2008 and democratic voter enthusiasm isn't as strong as in 2008. The 2010 midterm elections were likely a good preview for what we'll see this November. Most of the polls have been using sampling criteria that closely mirrors the 2008 election which would be a mistake. I think that we're already assured of a much closer election than 2008. Romney will win all of the states that McCain carried, plus I think Romney is a lock to win Florida, NC, Virginia, and Indiana. I'm also predicting that as of right now, Romney will win New Hampshire.

I think your last sentence is possibly very true. However, I do think that most of the undecided voters who are 'pinching their noses' will vote for the challenger with the hope that things can get shaken up and the economy will rebound under new leadership.

All indications?
Because last week president Obama announced that he had just received donations from over 4 MILLION individual voters. That's a record for any presidential campaign...ever.

That would indicate to ME, anyway, that voters are much more committed than before. Yeah, he doesn't have Will.I.Am writing annoying songs for him this time. But I think it's pretty off-base to say that there is no enthusiasm out there.
Sorry I misunderstood you. Do people really carry cards that state they are in the KKK?

The following is a link that shows an NBC pundit talking about voter enthusiasm in 2012.

All of the independent polling that has taken place this year shows that republican voter enthusiasm is greater than democrat voter enthusiasm. There is an abundant amount of data supporting that statistic. Keep in mind, that doesn't mean that the republican voter turnout is going to be higher than the democrat voter turnout. What it does mean, is that the gap will be much smaller than what we saw in 2008 and this will favor republicans who are running for office this time around. Democrat voter turnout was also higher in 2000 and in 2004 when Bush won, so that's not uncommon. There are more registered democrats in the country than republicans. However, in some states, such as my home state, we don't register under political party labels.
Also, worth noting, is the sharp swing in female support toward Romney. The latest polling has both candidates tied at 47% with women. Bush won support from women in both of his elections. Obama won over women in 2008.
I won't be shocked to see Romney win. I've always been an independent voter. My big issues are the economny, foreign policy, and national security/military. I'm a fiscal conservative, while I would consider myself to be socially moderate. I'm a member of the so-called middle-income bracket. I'm very concerned about our country's future if we continue on the same path that we've been on for the last six or seven years. Bush started it and Obama has unfortunately taken us to even greater depths. From my standpoint, it's time for a change in administration. I know most of my fellow PJ message board members are social liberals who vote for socially liberal politicians, but I'm much more concerned with my bank account, my 1040 tax form, and just trying to survive financially.
