I'd say so, though you've been desperate for this kind of stuff and grasping at straws for quite a while now

Really, that's very kind of you, but do you think so?

here is the full article-

Emails suggest Axelrod leaned on Gallup after unfavorable poll | Fox News


even the full article doesn't have much substance, however, Im not a fan of anyone related to the white house using twitter in any relation to their job. For some reason, this bruhaha arising because of a tweet annoys the hell out of me.

Somewhat "ironic" that the OP was also the guy that started a thread about "distractions" being used by the Obama campaign.

As it turns out it is a he said/she said. Either one or both of the parties could be false. I would not put anything past Axelrod.

I've no dog in this fight/thread, BUT...

it's not the first story I've heard/seen (from other than fox) that the actual poll numbers tell a different story than what's being presented on CNN, MSNBC, etc - that instead of being a dead heat, BO is in some serious trouble.

And no, I'm not going to waste my time doing research for links, just so both sides can sit here and argue politics - if you're that interested in it, and unless your index finger is paralyzed such that you can't click a mouse button, Google is your friend.

The latest Gallup daily tracking figures show Mitt Romney leading President Obama 47-45.

Well, I guess Dudes numbers were before Axelrod got through thrashing Gallup.

I bet you cannot wait for BO to lose. A forum like this is not going to move heaven and earth no matter how many times you post. Why don't you go out and stump for Romey and Company. May be you can persuade him to release more tax returns. I bet his tax rate is less than yours. His is less than mine for sure.
