      Most of the article dealt with exit polls which are irrelevant. I like RealClearPolitics which sums up and averages all the polls, they were off by 0.3% last election and 0.2% in 2004.

      Of course your source is terrible too.

          I can't stand the Huffington post, first because they are the leftist equivalent of Fox News, they are anything but fair and balanced, second because Arianna Huff and puff is the most annoying person on the planet,maybe it's because she is  Zsa Zsa Gabor in disguise pretending to know about politics.But regardless of that , to say all the polls are wrong and Obama is not leading right now is really laughable,not that Romney can't turn it around and win , he can , but right now he's trailing.And the  comparison between this election and the Carter- Reagan election is another  delusional ,grasping at straws , desperately showing to be in denial. Come on , are the republican operatives really  trying  to compare Mitt Romney, a guy nobody likes, who most republicans will have to hold their nose to vote for, with Ronald Reagan  who managed  to not only win the full support of his party but create a whole new species of human beings known as the Reagan Democrats? I admire your effort, and I kind of feel sorry for you, for the candidate your party has cursed you with.
