Romney is on the rise as he consolidates Republican support.

Romney is on the rice as he consolidates Republican support.

Romney over rice.

Overall results:
Obama 49
Romney 46

So pretty much in line with most polls at the moment showing Obama ahead by 3-4 points (with some outliers putting Obama much higher, other outliers putting Romney ahead by a couple).

As for Christie, he boosts Republican turnout, while still being unknown to about a third of voters. Christie's got modestly negative favorability ratings with independents, and (of course) very negative ones with Democrats. My own hunch (and I freely admit it's just a hunch) is that, were he the VP candidate, he'd end up being quite polarizing, and might in the long run do as much harm with independents as he did good with Republicans.

Except you forgot the part where Obama leads Romney 49-46.

Obama's been tied with/narrowly ahead of McCain in 2008 polling for some time.  Pretty normal.

The female thing is weird though.

Yes, without Christie he does not do as good as job of consolidating  the Republican party. But that will change.

Well, its not often I see you gloat over a PPP poll, so I guess thats a good thing.

QCOOJP!

What does "QCOOJP" mean, krazey?  Is it some sort of hacktastic comment that *would* come back to bite you in the ass after the election, if you hadn't mysteriously disappeared by then?
