Mitt Romney Up 6% in Quinnipiac Poll in Battleground State of Florida … Romney 47% – Obama 41%

 

The presumptive Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney surges in Florida over Barack Obama.

According to the most recent Quinnipiac poll, Romney is up 6% over Obama and leads the incumbent President in the Sunshine state 47% to 41%. This is quite a statement for Romney, taking the lead in the key battleground state of Florida. What seems to be driving the poll is the 45 approve – 55% disapprove of Obama job approval and the 58% yes – 30% no likability of Romney.

Gov. Mitt Romney holds a 47 – 41 percent lead over President Barack Obama in Florida, where 63 percent of voters say the president’s support of same-sex marriage will not affect their vote, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. Another 25 – 11 percent of voters, including 23 – 9 percent among independent voters, say Obama’s support of gay marriage makes them less likely to support his candidacy.

Adding Florida U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio to the GOP ticket would give the Republican Romney/Rubio team a 49 – 41 percent lead over President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.

Romney’s lead in the horse race compares to a 44 – 43 percent tie in a May 3 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University and a 49 – 42 percent Obama lead March 28.

Florida is a truly representative swing state and could spell political reelection doom for Obama and what the landscape will look like in the rest of the battleground states up for grabs in the 2012 Presidential election.

ABC/WAPO Poll Uses Questionable Sample to Have Obama Lead Romney 49% to 46% … Under Samples GOP by 10% … NBC/WSJ Skewed Sample as Well

 

All polls are not created equal … in fact some are just plain disingenuous. 

The most recent ABC/Washington Post poll has President Barack Obama ahead of GOP challenger Mitt Romney, 49% to 46%. Good news for Obama, right? Well, if you like faux polls it is. When will the liberal MSM ever learn that falsifying poll results serves no purpose on election day? The WAPO goes on to say that Obama and Romney are in a dead heat on the economy, Really?

The parity on economic issues foreshadows what probably will continue to be a tough and negative campaign. Overall, voters would be split 49 percent for Obama and 46 percent for Romney if the November election were held now. On handling the economy, they are tied at 47 percent.

Despite flare-ups over issues including contraception and same-sex marriage, more than half of all Americans cite the economy as the one concern that will decide their vote in the fall, relegating others — such as health care, taxes and the federal deficit — to single-digit status.

Voters are evenly divided between Obama and Romney on the question of who could kick-start the economy and also are split on job creation, with 46 percent siding with the president and 45 percent with Romney.

OK, let’s go inside the sampling polling numbers. The full results of the poll can be seen HERE.

The ABC/WAPO poll used the following model sampling: Democrat 32%, Republican 22% and Independents 38%. The exit polling in the 2008 Presidential election was Democrat 39%, Republican 32% and Independents 29%. However, there was a huge change in the 2010 election as Democrats and Obama took a shellacking. Interestingly enough, 2010 exit polling had those voting at Democrat 35%, Republican 35% and Independents 29%.  So the trend is moving to be even rather than Democrats with a large sampling lead. However, that did not stop the WAPO and ABC to use an overinflated Democrat sample to give Obama a more than questionable poll results. The poll over-sampled Democrats to Republicans by 10%, yet Obama only leads Romney by 3%.

Senate Democrats Want to Increase Air Travel Fees So that the TSA Can Continue to Grope Granny & Little Children

 

Because the Democrats never met a tax or fee increase the did not like …

The TSA is such a broken and inflated department with a failed groping policy that even the individual who created it thinks it should be scrapped; however,  Senate Democrats want now want to increase the travel fee. Presently the fee is $2.50. Democrats want to double the fee to $5.00. Are you serious? Why would such a failed agency more known for groping and fondling little girls, considering  disabled 7 year old’s terrorists, humiliating cancer patients and strip searching granny be provided more money?

The Senate Appropriations Committee on Tuesday moved forward with legislation to increase airline passenger security fees, beating back a GOP attempt to keep them at current levels.

The 2013 Homeland Security appropriations bill would increase one-way fees for passengers from $2.50 to $5 in order to close a budget shortfall at the Transportation Security Administration.

Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) said the $315 million in funding would otherwise come from taxpayers and argued it is better to stick passengers who rely on TSA with the bill.

Geraldo Rivera was unavailable for comment whether he thought there should be an increase in fees to be manually raped.

Kentucky Democrat Primary: Barack Obama Defeats ‘Uncommitted’ Vote 57.9% to 42.1% … Loses 41% of Vote in Arkansas to John Wolf

 

4 in 10 vote against Obama in Kentucky and Arkansas Democrat primaries …

In a tighter than expected race in the Democrat primary in Kentucky, incumbent President Barack Obama won a tough fought battle against the “Uncommitted” vote, 57.9% to 42.1%.  Seriously. Obama ran unopposed in the KY Democrat primary and lost 42.1% of the vote. It is not even like he was competing against a jailed felon, federal inmate No. 11593-051 Keith Judd, like in the West Virginia primary where Obama lost 41% of the vote.Talk about your protest votes against Obama.

Barack Obama struggles mightily tonight in the Kentucky and Arkansas Democrat primaries. If Obama’s battle against the ‘uncommitted’ vote was not bad enough in the Blue Grass state, Obama also lost 41% of the vote in Arkansas to Democrat challenger unknown  John Wolf.

Four in ten Democratic voters chose someone other than President Obama on Tuesday in primaries in Arkansas and Kentucky.

In Arkansas, John Wolfe — a perennial, long-shot candidate — took 41 percent of the vote in the Democratic primary, with 71 percent of precincts reporting. Obama came in just under 60 percent. The Associated Press did not call the race for Obama until close to midnight.

And in Kentucky, 42 percent of Democrats chose “uncommitted” rather than cast a vote for the incumbent president. Obama took 58 percent, with 99 percent of precincts reporting.

Live Arkansas primary results see HERE.

I think it is safe to say that after Obama’s embarrassing primary results in West Virginia, Arkansas and Kentucky, do not look for Barack Obama to be visiting these states in the general election. Color the states Red, as well as Obama’s face after these humiliating primaries.

Hillary Clinton and her political brain trust must be kicking themselves that they did not challenge Obama in the Democrat primary. She would have been a shoe in to defeat Obama.

Rasmussen Poll: 40% Say Trayvon Martin Shot in Self-Defense; Only 24% Say It Was Murder … Only 47% of Blacks Think Zimmerman Murdered Martin

 

As evidence and facts are released in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, the more people believe that George Zimmerman shot in self-defense.

My how the opinion is changing in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman. Initially when the story was inaccurately reported by the MSM and the race baiters like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson were out in force fanning the flames of racism, many thought that George Zimmerman was guilty of murder.  The MSM even went as far as purposely manipulating the Zimmerman 911 call and misrepresent the facts.  My what a difference actual facts and evidence makes.

According to the most recent Rasmussen poll, 40% now believe that George Zimmerman shot 17 year old Trayvon Martin in self-defense, only 24% now believe that it was murder. WOW,  only a mere 15% believed Zimmerman acted in self-defense in March and 24% in April. George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch captain was charged with second degree murder.  What is even more stunning with the polling numbers is that 47% of black adults feel Zimmerman should be found guilty of murdering Trayvon Martin, down from 55% in March. Of course the public opinion was influenced by not only the media’s bias reporting, but also President Obama interjecting himself in the case stating that Trayvon Martin could have looked like his son.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 24% of American Adults still believe the man who shot Martin should be found guilty of murder. But that’s down from 33% in late March when the case first began to draw national headlines and 30% in early April.

Forty percent (40%) now think George Zimmerman, who has been charged with second degree murder in the Martin shooting, acted in self-defense. That’s up 25 points from 15% in March and up 16 points from 24% last month. Thirty-six percent (36%) remain undecided, compared to 55% two months ago. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Interestingly, 47% of black adults still feel Zimmerman should be found guilty of murdering the black teenager, compared to 55% in March.

It is simply amazing how the public opinion has shifted in this case once actual facts came out in the case as opposed to the liberal MSM bias agenda. The calls of racism and racial profiling have been pretty much debunked by the autopsy reports of Trayvon Martin that stated he had bruised knuckles and the medical reports and pics that show that George Zimmerman had two black eyes, a broken nose and cuts to the back of his head.

The real question is will justice be served in this case or will the pressures of political correctness and race baiting win out? One think is for certain, the death of any 17 year old is tragic; however, the manipulating of a case to stir racial tensions and fan the flames of racism is reprehensible. The MSM so wanted there to be a hate crime of a white on black crime. So much that the MSM invented a new category of people, “White Hispanics”.

Great analysis from Weasel Zippers, Anyone else notice a correlation between new evidence backing up Zimmerman’s claims and a huge drop in MSM coverage?

Deranged, Obama Kool-Aid Drinking NC Teacher Tonya Dixon-Neely Suspended With Pay After Telling Kids Not to Criticize the Obamamessiah (Update: Student Hunter Rogers Speaks Out)

 

The clueless and deranged NC teacher who told students that they could be arrested for criticizing President Barack Obama has been suspended with pay for her comments. Wow, you showed her. You just gave an Obama Kool-aid drinking so-called teacher who is more adept at spreading her liberal, Democrat agenda and love affair for Obama than to actually teach students an early summer vacation with pay. School officials also said there will be an investigation. Really?

Make no mistake about it the teacher, Tonya Dixon-Neely, was only suspended and the school district forced into making a statement because the student had the where with all to record the teachers out of control, deranged, moonbat rant defending Obama and attacking Mitt Romney. Thanks to the Internet and social media, the audio went viral and this hideous attempt of liberal indoctrination was exposed. This is what it has come to in public schools, teacher spreading this political agenda and threatening students that they could be jailed for daring to criticize Obama and express their 1st Amendment Rights to free speech.

A teacher at a Rowan County school has been suspended after getting national attention for a YouTube video that surfaced last week showing her yelling at her students, saying it’s wrong to criticize the president.

In the YouTube video, North Rowan High School teacher Tonya Dixon-Neely and her students were debating several political issues, including a discussion about President Obama and Republican candidate Mitt Romney.

The video, which was uploaded on May 14, had more than 178,000 views on YouTube as of Monday afternoon.  The story has been picked up by national media outlets, including Fox News and the New York Post.  Controversial radio host Rush Limbaugh discussed the issue on his radio show on Monday afternoon as well.

If you missed the initial audio, it can he heard HERE.

The school district was forced to released a statement on Monday regarding the unhinged and what has become all too typical example of bias public school teaching trying to spread a liberal agenda rather than educate students and allowing a free flow of ideas.

“The Rowan-Salisbury School System expects all students and employees to be respectful in the school environment and for all teachers to maintain their professionalism in the classroom.  This incident should serve as an education for all teachers to stop and reflect on their interaction with students. Due to personnel and student confidentiality, we cannot discuss the matter publicly.”

Jamie Wearing Fool is quick to point out the bias reporting of the bias suspended teacher. Isn’t it just peachy that the reporting of this story calls Rush Limbaugh the one who’s controversial here, not this illiterate nutcase teacher. Go figure? This is how bias the MSM is, they don’t even realize anymore that are bias. They just can’t help themselves.

Back to the illiterate nutcase teacher. How does anyone allow this teacher back in the classroom? From all accounts this is how the teacher usually acts and conducts herself. It was only until she was recorded and the audio went viral before she was outed. Note to students, it would appear that all will have to record their teachers in order to stop the liberal indoctrination. Another issue arises as well, this teacher totally lost control of the class and herself. How can a social studies teacher who has an inherent bias and liberal agenda act as Obama so likes to say … Fairly? The answer is, she can’t.

This is not the first time we have seen this slobbering love affair and bizarro behavior from our so-called educators. Remember the indoctrination of our youth in school when Obama was elected … Mmm, mmm, mmm … Barack Hussein Obama.

UPDATE I: Student speaks out on Fox News as to what happened in classroom with unhinged teacher. Hear Hunter Rogers in his own words school the bias, liberal agenda driven, Barack Obama teacher sycophant teacher.

VIDEO

“Honestly, at the time I wanted to laugh at her, because I’ve been taught all my life that nobody can take your opinion,” Hunter Rogers said.  He said he knew that it takes an actual threat against the president, not just criticism, to be arrested.

Hunter Rogers and his mother Gina spoke to Fox News about the incident and the recording of the argument that later went viral on YouTube.

“(The teacher) doesn’t want to hear anything but what she believes, and … if you disagree, you get berated and put down,” Rogers said. “I just decided to finally get some proof of it.”

Antolin Garcia-Torres Arrested on Suspicion of Murder & Kidnapping of Missing 15 Year Old Sierra LaMar

 

There has been a break in the case of missing 15 year old Sierra LaMar. Authorities have arrested 21 year old Antolin Garcia-Torres on suspicion of murder and kidnapping in the disappearance of Sierra LaMar. According to the police press conference, they stated that they had a lot of physical evidence in the case that connects Antolin Garcia-Torres to the disappearance of  Sierra LaMar.   The Northern California teen Sierra LaMar has been missing since March 16, 2012 when she was last seen at 6 AM leaving for school.

Authorities have arrested a man in the kidnapping and death of a Northern California teenager whose disappearance more than two months ago has prompted hundreds of volunteers to turn out for organized searches.

Antolin Garcia-Torres was arrested Monday evening at a Safeway store in Morgan Hill, Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith said at a late Monday news conference.

“We believe we have probable cause that he committed the kidnapping and murder of Sierra LaMar,” she said.

Earlier this month, investigators located a red Volkswagen Jetta that they said may have been connected to Sierra Lemar’s  abduction. Surveillance cameras and witnesses put the car near the area where authorities believed the 15 year old disappeared. According to reports, Antolin Garcia-Torres is the owner of the red Jetta in connection with this case of missing Sierra LaMar. DNA evidense was found that links Torres to clothing found in her backpack.

Garcia-Torres, a resident of nearby San Martin, is the owner of the red Jetta that authorities seized on May 8th in connection with the case. A source tells KTVU authorities found DNA evidence that links Garcia-Torres to clothing found in the missing girl’s backpack, which was recovered after she vanished.

Authorities told KTVU Garcia-Torres had been under 24-hour surveillance since he was identified as a possible suspect at both his home and at the Safeway store. A source tells the station Garcia-Torres was questioned for over two hours Monday.

New Black Panther Leader King Samir Shabazz Says Be Thankful We’re “Not Hanging Crackers By Nooses …Yet, Yet, Yet”

 

UNBELIEVABLE … More reverse racism and racial hatred, brought to you from the New Black Panther Party’s leader King Samir Shabazz.

Because nothing says racial harmony and can’t we all get along like the comments from Shabazz, “You should be thankful we’re not running around here hanging crackers by nooses and all that kind of stuff, yet, yet, yet.” Or the following special perils of wisdom, “I hate the sound of white people. G*ddamnit, I hate the smell of white people.” Yes, this brought to you by the same folks that the Barack Obama Administration and Attorney General Eric Holder allowed the NBPP to walk free on obvious voter intimidation of white voters. Then again, it was for “his people”.

 

From The Blaze comes the following comes more pathetic and vile hate courtesy of the New Black Panther Party:

According to National Field Marshal for the New Black Panthers King Samir Shabazz:
•“I love white-on white-crime, because that is the best crime.”
•“I hate the g*ddamn white man, woman, and child, grandma, aunt, uncle, Pappa Billy Bob, and whoever else.”
•“You should be thankful we’re not running around here hanging crackers by nooses and all that kind of stuff — yet, yet, yet”
•He has a “wet dream about killing the g*ddamn cracker.”
•“We don’t allow faggots and lesbians” in the New Black Panther Army
Envisions a world where every black person is “ready to bang on this cracker”
•Wants to take over neighborhoods “block by block” so “crackers…or even the developer” would be scared to come into them
•“We’re taught to send this cracker to the cemetery… so kiss ‘em goodbye”

Listen to the unbelievable audio  of the NBPP leader on a national radio show this weekend, calling for broad violence against whites. The FBI and the Justice Depatment investigates George Zimmerman for a possible hate crime against Trayvon Martin, yet nothing happens here. Imagine of the roles were reversed a a white individual made the same or similar comments toward blacks? When is Barack Obama and Holder going to show any form of “fairness” when it comes to hate speech?

More on the Obama/Holder double standard of racial hatred at the Gateway Pundit.
