Romney is now up seven in Virginia. A new poll from McLaughlin Associates, it\u2019s highlighted at Breitbart: Romney up seven in Virginia, 11 points with independents. Real Clear Politics, now, has moved Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and Wisconsin to toss-up status from leans Obama. Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, to toss-up status. I know people living in Pennsylvania, they can\u2019t believe this. Well, I know one guy who lives in Pennsylvania who does believe it. I know one guy who lives in Pennsylvania who thinks Romney\u2019s gonna win. I know another guy who\u2019s from Pennsylvania that thinks it\u2019s not possible. It doesn\u2019t matter. Obama doesn\u2019t have it locked up. He doesn\u2019t have Michigan locked up. He doesn\u2019t have New Hampshire or Wisconsin locked up. They\u2019ve move to toss-up from leaning Obama.<\/p>\n<p><BR\/><a target=\"_blank\" view=\"full\" href=\"http:\/\/thehill.com\/blogs\/ballot-box\/polls\/261189-pollster-pulls-out-of-fla-nc-and-va-says-obama-cant-win\"><img id=\"eZObject_68175\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ROmneyPolls.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/line><BR\/><a target=\"_blank\" view=\"full\" href=\"http:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/epolls\/2012\/president\/2012_elections_electoral_college_map.html  \"><img id=\"eZObject_68168\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/rcp_large.png\"\/><\/a>Everything\u2019s moving away from Obama. He\u2019s got seven states, including California and New York, that he has locked down according to the Real Clear Politics poll. And it\u2019s the same in Florida, Romney is up seven in Florida. So the Suffolk University polling unit: <a target=\"_blank\" view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=14300\">pulled out of North Carolina,<\/a> pulled out of Florida, and Real Clear Politics has not yet given those states to Romney. They\u2019re waiting for other data. And not that they should. I\u2019m just telling you it\u2019s gonna happen, it just hasn\u2019t happened yet.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>But Suffolk University pulled out: we\u2019re not gonna waste any money polling in Virginia, Florida, or North Carolina. Those states are leaning Romney, are now, they say, gone for Obama. Here we are three weeks out, we\u2019re looking at Romney 51 points, the magic 50% number has been hit by the challenger. This is when the pollsters start telling you their stuff really is accurate and it really matters. There\u2019s other polling data to cite as well.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: More polling data, a survey from ARG. Romney now 49 to 46 in Florida and a 50-46 lead in New Hampshire. Suffolk University polling says Florida\u2019s over. New Hampshire, Romney, 50%. Yep. New Hampshire, Romney 50 to 46.<\/p>\n<p>(interruption)<\/p>\n<p>I know they have. I know they\u2019ve been saying Romney is losing. The bottom line is Obama is sitting there right now with a lock on seven to nine states. That\u2019s it. The toss-ups are Florida, that\u2019s Romney, North Carolina, that\u2019s Romney, Virginia, that\u2019s Romney, Wisconsin, that\u2019s trending Romney.<\/p>\n<p>Pennsylvania, there are people who actually live in Pennsylvania that think Romney\u2019s gonna win this thing. Some don\u2019t; some do. Missouri probably gonna be Romney. Still a toss-up. I don\u2019t want to say too much right now \u2019cause it\u2019s still a long way to go, but&#8230; (whispering) it\u2019s gonna be a blowout. I didn\u2019t say that. You didn\u2019t hear me say it. No, I said, (whispering) &#8220;It could be a blowout.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I didn\u2019t say it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Let\u2019s look at a little polling data.
