It is really interesting to see that the POLITICO poll now shows Obama+1 from Romney+2 last week. What is more, Hispanic sample is only up to 7% from 5% last week, which makes it even better.

However, the sweetest bit it how Brit Hume set it up as Romney+5, which was unbelievable to all of us here, but is now resulting in major freak-out over on the right. Enjoy it here:

However, a few broader points need to be made here, and it may be worth remembering over the last week.
1) The poll still shows a 77% white likely voter sample, off by a minimum of 3 and possibly 5. It will be important to look for this in other polls too. It is actually a VERY GOOD POLL considering the sample
2) National polling this week will in general be quite dodgy given Hurricane Sandy and its impact on response in the North-east. So sample of north-east respondents will also be something to look out for.
3) When you tweet this poll or speak about it, make sure you mention 77% white and 7% Latino LV sample in the same sentence as Obama+1. The media can only pull the wool over our eyes if they think they can get away with it.
4) Point out every chance you get how Brit Hume just lied on FOX NEWS. Turn the table using actual evidence of a verifiable lie.
5) The media is at least somewhat keen to call Romney out for his filthy Jeep lie, to the extent that even The Hill is reporting on it.

Let's help the media do its job. They may need an additional push given how they have let Romney lie his way towards the White House.
6) Finally, anybody who can, get to Columbus or Cleveland. There are unlikely voters to turn out here that will make undecideds look silly.
