More poll results, all looking good.

Except for PA, which has got to be bullsquat...no way Romney is leading there by four.

I have no idea what kind of pollster Susquehanna is.

Just ignore it. If Obama was down in PA, Romney would have won the election already. It's BS.

"Every other Pennsylvania poll shows Obama ahead, though by a narrowing margin. A Quinnipiac University poll taken around the same time as the Susquehanna poll shows Obama leading Romney 50 percent to 46 percent."

Here's the key line to know its bull-shit:

"In this poll, 48 percent of respondents identified as Republicans and 42 percent as Democrats"

Democratic registrations FAR outnumber repubs in PA...
