Rmoney over Obama 48 to 47. I thought this was strange and then I remembered that they have to ass kiss the repubs because of what Chris Matthews did to Reince Pervert. He had to follow the GOP talking points about how rmoney is in a virtual tie with rmoney and rmoney could win coming out of this convention. But poll and after poll shows rmoney is not likable and people are voting against Obama instead of voting for rmoney. Plus the repugs have pissed over woman, minorities, gays, and Muslims. Yeah sure.....
