Obama wins most of the headlines on polls, but loses the internals the TIPP poll is no different

Tuesday’s IBD/TIPP 2012 Presidential Election Daily Tracking Poll (TIPP), released just before the last debate, was another example of a headline that was not supported by its accompanying message.

While TIPP showed Barack Obama beating Mitt Romney 47.4%/ 43.4% that leaves 9.8 points of undecided. The statistical reality is that 80% of the undecided vote will go to the challenger giving Romney 51.24%; but it gets worse for Obama.

Obama wins the Northeast 48/40 but the 10% undecided will change a region that should be “locked up” into one requiring attention.

TIPP also shows Obama’s numbers with all age groups down from what he got in 2008, even females are failing to step up for him. He is down 4 points and seeing 7 points of undecided with women. He’s off 7 points with men who are also 7% undecided.

In order to get Blacks up to even 86% (they gave Obama 95% in 2008) TIPP had to mix in Hispanics – this is not good news for Obama.

The Party support TIPP reported … very suspect. They say Romney is getting just 86% of Republicans to support him.

No credible poll shows Republican support for Romney at less than 91% and most set it at 92%. TIPP’s report that Independents support Romney by just 11 points with 13 points of undecided voters is also very suspect.

Notwithstanding the twisted numbers TIPP uses it still managed to fall on the great Democrat “electoral third rail” – the Catholic vote. Ten days ago TIPP reported Barack Obama held a 46/43 lead among Catholic voters.

That lead is gone. "...losing the Catholic vote 49/41 – a 12 point turnaround; more than one point a day.

…no Democrat ever been elected president without... Catholic vote….

[Straw Man]

When Obama wins how quick will McWay and 333 be on here claiming that reality oversampled Dems

[blacken700]

what was it last week when you said it's a landslide how soon we forget

Same bullshit happened in Wisconsin and you libs were in a state of shock Walker won by 5.  Same as NJ, Mass Senate etc. 

[MCWAY]

what was it last week when you said it's a landslide how soon we forget

He said that, before Romney hit 50% in either Gallup or Rasmussen. I don't see him changing his tune now.

[MCWAY]

Same bullshit happened in Wisconsin and you libs were in a state of shock Walker won by 5.  Same as NJ, Mass Senate etc. 

If you're referring to the recall, Walker won by 7 (better than my prediction that he'd win by 6).

HORSESHIT

Walker had a decisive lead in the polls the weeks and days before the election

no one was shocked

HORSESHIT

Walker had a decisive lead in the polls the weeks and days before the election

He did in RCP. However, the weekend and Monday before the election, even hours before it, the news outlets were virtually all saying it was "too close too call".

no one was shocked

Tell that to Ed Schultz on MSNBC. He was about to break wide open in tears. He and his panel guests were still saying the race was close and it wasn't over, even when both NBC and MSNBC called it for Walker, less than an hour after the polls closed.

CRAP POLL

[tu_holmes]

Ah... Thanks.

[Kazan]

Holy crap .0000003% of the population polled

[Soul Crusher]

Obama at 47 in a D+7 poll means his best case scenario at this point is about 45-46% - just what ras and gallup show.
