I have ALWAYS used realclearpolitics as my go to polls, since the Bush years. Does that make me a conservative? Or does that make you wrong on your assessment of liberals and their sources? "Some" is not a scientific poll.

I also use RealClearPolitics as they list ALL the polls and average them.

If Colorado comes down to Arapahoe and Jeffco, then it's a done deal because BOTH of those counties will go to Romney.

I guarantee.

Anybody wanna bet- you better have real money!

I have shared this before, but this guy, Nate Silver, does a better job than RCP as far was bias weighting and actually factors in current economic date. He has been withing .1% of the final numbers since I think the 2000 election, including Senate and Congressional elections.

IF it shows Romney down, it's biased. If it shows him ahead, it's spot on, my learned conservative friends say.

Driving 285 from Morrison to Kenosha this weekend, it was about 10 to 1 Romney signs over Obama signs.

If you'd gone further to BV, youd' a seen nothing but Romner Ryan sigs. Those ranchers have had enough.

Which means nothing. One person can put up 50 signs.

I enjoy driving through my neighborhood in Evergreen, sure there are a few Obummer signs- but it's about 5 to 1 Romney signs.

Many of the Obummer signs are placed in public spaces or common areas where they shouldn't even be.

I was also driving through Hiwan last night after visiting with my parents- same thing. 5:1 Romney signs. These neighborhoods still have people who work for a living, pulling their own weight.

I don't place any value on the signs themselves because I know many of the people who don't have any signs are republicans- and I know how they will vote.

It's just an example of how many people have had enough of a Socialist in the white house.

The vast majority of conservatives won't put up a sign, but they will be voting come Nov. 6. I call them the silent majority.
