Nope.  Alas, even as a good pollster, Rasmussen is not exempt from the laws of statistics that make a 500-voter poll have a pretty wide error margin.

Are we definitely getting battleground state polling (PA, CO, VA, OH, etc) from this firm every Monday until November 4th?

I don't care if they're good polls or not. I'm just asking if they're definitely feeding us some numbers every Monday.

But, since they will be labelled Fox/Rasmussen polls they have NO value.

No problem ... Wink

Plus: Everything less than a 4-5% Obama lead in PA and MI in Rasmussen's poll later today would really disappoint me. Obama has to be up by this margin in both states, when he's up 1-4% nationally.

They should poll Colorado as well. It's the only true toss-up.

Quinnipiac will delight us with Colorado, Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota tomorrow.

Yes, I think in Michigan and Pennsylvania, if Obama is not about 48% in polling on election eve, he will lose the state.  Same with Ohio.
