Poll: Romney lead grows in daily tracking poll
The latest national poll shows Mitt Romney with the largest lead over President Obama this campaign based on Gallup's polling. In Gallup's Daily Tracking poll out Thursday, Romney leads the president by 7 points, with Romney obtaining 52 percent support of likely voters to Mr. Obama's 45 percent.
The results continue the latest trend shown in Gallup's polling - Romney gaining an advantage in a race that has been consistently close. Just four days ago the same poll showed Romney leading by just 2 points, which is within the margin of error.
The tracking poll obtains its average through interviews with 2,700 people over seven days. All of the respondents were asked after the first presidential debate, where, by most accounts, the president performed poorly, but only some were interviewed after the second debate where Mr. Obama had a much stronger showing.
While the latest Gallup poll shows a positive trend for Romney, a separate Gallup Poll reveals that the president's job approval rating is not suffering. Fifty percent of Americans (not necessarily likely voters) say they approve of the job the president is doing, which reflects consistent growth since the beginning of September when his job approval ratings hovered in the low- to mid-40s.

On the women's issue planed parent hood makes millions from abortion and call it contraception on tv media . As a christian , I cant vote for any one who fails to speak out for the 1.5 million lives lost under the pro-choice title. I believe in termination only in cases of rape with a conviction in court of the rapist , or for the health of the mother.
Mr Obama, I feel has lied to me about even being eligible to serve in the white house . Why ? Was he ashamed of his communist father? He seems to have been raised in that way ,trained in socialism and wants to put America on an irreversible course in that direction. I urge every one to watch the movie with an open mind then do your own research before you vote.
President Obama has laid out a clear agenda to create jobs across America by promoting small businesses, helping homeowners avoid foreclosure, and bringing 21st Century manufacturing jobs back to the U.S.
But Republicans in Congress will stop at nothing to deny President Obama any legislative victories, even if it hurts middle class families.
Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell even said "the single most important thing [Republicans] want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president."
In the first two years Obama didn't need Republicans for anything because Democrats owned both houses.
Your saying Obama helps small business is false. Over half of small business's say ObamaCare will hurt them.
The company I work for is even planning on not enabling it's employees to work over 29.5 hrs a week due to ObamaCare.
Next Obama will raise taxes on people earning over 200k a year. Like Romney said at the debate majority of small business's file their taxes as individuals and thus will get a tax increase.
This in turn takes more money out of their pocket and they will not be able to grow and hire.
Please don't vote for Obama he has done enough damage.
