In the first polls that include data taken after the Oct. 16 Presidential evening debate, Romney has pulled farther ahead than before the data was collected.

Yesterday (before latest data was included) Romney was ahead by 1% in the Rasmussen six-day rolling poll, and ahead by 5% in Gallup's 3-day rolling average.

Today, after data taken Oct. 17 was included, Romney is now ahead by 2% in Rasmussen and 7% ahead in Gallup.

The trend continues. :D

Pundits are also pointing out an interesting statistic:

Never in the history of the Gallup poll, has a candidate who was ahead by 7% or more at this point in the campaign season, lost the election.

Little-Acorn. As much as I disagree with most all political polls. Both of us must remember. Liberal, Democrat, Obama followers will instantly jump on this kind of news as Totally False, and Made-up to suit Republican, Romney voters.

So. To keep them happy. I will once again remind OBAMA DEMOCRATS.... Polls are just a shortened name for people who lived in Poland.
