President Barack Obama has an 7-point cushion over Mitt Romney, according to a new poll from Pew Research Center released Thursday.
Fifty percent of registered voters nationwide prefer Obama, compared with 43 percent who plan to vote for Romney. The president has held a lead over Romney in every Pew poll this year. It’s also the second consecutive Pew survey that shows Obama polling at 50 percent. In Pew’s June survey, Obama edged the presumptive Republican nominee, 50 percent to 46 percent.
Pew also found that Romney has lost ground on the issue that has been central to his campaign: the economy. In June, 49 percent of voters said Romney was the best candidate to improve the nation’s beleaguered economy, compared with 41 percent who gave the nod to Obama.
Thursday’s poll shows a flip over the last month, with 48 percent of voters now saying Obama is the best candidate to turn the economy around, compared with 42 percent who named Romney. That’s emerging as a problematic trend for the former Massachusetts governor, who has been unable to seize a clear advantage over Obama despite the country’s ongoing economic woes.

It's the usual routine. Every time Romney gets a slight lead and things start pulling his way, out of nowhere comes a poll putting Obama up 5-7 points or more. And (surprise, surprise ::) ), nearly all of them grossly oversample Democrats and use merely registered voters.
