VA-PPP: Obama (D) easily defeats all Republicans

[California8429]

He only leads Romney and Huck by 5 points. That's not quite easily beating them.

For comparison, he beat McCain by 7 points.

but it's still odd considering the GOP picked up congressional seats and elected McDonnell in 2009 and like them

Yes, the only way this makes sense to me is that the electorate they're sampling is much more like '08 than '10 (and even then, the sample may be too Democratic) AND these particular four Republican candidates are viewed as old news with at least moderate negatives because of '08 battles or, with Gingrich, all of his baggage. I happily chalk this up to wishful thinking until other polls show similar results.

Yeah, looks overly dem to me if he's in a dead heat with independents yet winning by 5 points...

 maybe not 'trash" but I would like to see a poll of likely voters.

Nobody knows what a likely voter is this far off.

It still would be interesting to poll party faithfuls that always want to vote to see who the grassroots activists and real influences are supporting
