[ProSense]

Look at this swing, President Obama is up 7 points and Mitt is down 6 points:

2. Look at Foreign Policy and National Security

He is getting pulverized on those two issues. Isn't it rare for a Democrat to be on top by that wide of a margin over a Republican?
I think Obama has turned their "strong" suit argument up side down!!

5. Wasn't his atempt at "practicing" foreign policy a complete disaster just a couple of weeks ago?

6. Yeah that was a UnMITTigated Disaster!

He bombed several of our Allies with his stupidity.

12. I still can't get over "Mitt the Twit".

A typically conservative right-wing tablod paper, under the ownership of News Corp, plastered this over their front page.

Plus Boris calling out Mitt Romney in a warm up rally for the start of the Olympics.

Mr. Romney is indeed IMO a World Class Twit, and an Upper Class Twit at that too.

7. Please tell me what I'm looking at here.

WTH do the numbers in that first, unlabeled column mean? The format (x/x) would indicate date ranges, but they seem to be time-traveling backward, not to mention there are some that can't possibly be dates (15/12). So what does that first column mean?

10. i had to double take too

it is for the week. so 8/2-6/12 is Aug 2-6, 2012

11. Of course!

After all these years, I should know better than to read DU before my second cup of morning coffee!

8. I finally understand why Fox News is trying to make this election is only about the economy...

with the exception of immigration, it's the only one, poll wise, he's competitive in.

[ProSense]

13. Yup, and also to

hype his Bain experience, which he's now running away from.

9. Family values? What?

You mean making billions by ruining millions of families isn't actually a "family value"?

Romney was confused on that. He had calculated family value at about $17,000 per family and was ready to buy a few million families and put them in his Swiss bank account before his people explained that isn't really what "family values" means
