On yesterday’s Your World, former Pennsylvania Senator (and former Fox News contributor) Rick Santorum spoke about early voting. Near the end, Neil Cavuto asked “How big a phenomenon is this early voting and in swing states particular, how is it going to sway?”
Santorum answered, “It’s a problem… I’m not a big fan of early voting. I mean, particularly when you’re voting 3-4 weeks out from an election because the dynamics of an election can change so dramatically… and it doesn’t really reflect the totality of a campaign… Now campaigns have to change. I think that’s not really beneficial for our country, but that’s the reality of the situation. And right now, I think it’s benefitting for these states that are starting early voting now, and several of them are, it’s benefitting Governor Romney.”
Cavuto replied, “We shall see.”
But according to polling data, that’s not the picture at all. Reuters reported this week,
Obama leads Romney by 59 percent to 31 percent among early voters, according to Reuters/Ipsos polling data compiled in recent weeks.
Then they just sold themselves out in September to become Fox 2. I used to cite them excessively, now I fact-check them obsessively, and I find that CBS has become more aggressively neutral.
For what stakes CBS has in the election either way… they’re the professional name here. ABC could have had that, but they decided to go hard one way.
But we will have to see what the weekend and next week’s polls show once we have a solid group of them. The Gallup number doesn’t make sense in comparison with the others. If all of the polls come back looking like that, then they’re onto something. But I strongly doubt it. And we still haven’t seen a full accounting of how much damage Romney did to himself on Wednesday and how much upward momentum Obama was able to earn.

Proving once again — as if more proof were needed — there’s quite a disconnect between reality and Faux sNooze.
@Antoinette: “We guess the frauds are suffering from Romnesia.”
It’s OK — as the President himself said, even though it’s a preexisting condition, they’re covered under Obamacare! :)

Gee Whiz, why’m not surprised?
