Obama edges Romney, Perry in Ohio

Raleigh, N.C. – Ohio has been the quintessential battleground for much of recent U.S.
presidential election history, and in PPP’s latest poll of the Buckeye State, President
Obama leads all but one of his potential Republican opponents by single-digit margins.
Obama defeated John McCain in the state by almost five points, and poll respondents
report having voted for him by only three. In that sense, only Mitt Romney and perhaps
Rick Perry outperform the 2008 nominee at the present moment. Obama leads Romney
by only two points, 45-43, a little bit of closure since PPP last polled the race in May,
when Obama led, 46-42. The newest entrant, Perry, is down, 45-41. Michele Bachmann
trails, 48-41; Herman Cain, 47-39; and Palin, 51-38, down from 50-40 in May.

Polls sample about .0000003% of the population, they are simply a tool to sway public opinion.

So we should dismiss Obama being down to 41% on Gallup?

You can do whatever you want, I don't care about polling data. I think it is irrelevant and easily manipulated.

If that is what it is showing now - obama is gone.   not gone - VERY GONE!  

Obama has already peaked and is in campaign mode 24/7 and getting less popular by the minute, the others have not even started.
