No one believes Obama is actually polling ahead of Romney by 13 points because that would be ridiculous

The findings of a Bloomberg poll released today have everyone… laughing. That’s because the results show President Barack Obama leading Mitt Romney nationally 53 to 40 percent when essentially every other major poll has the race in a dead heat.

A sampling of what has been said about the poll:

Obama leads Romney by 13 points in new poll. Can that be right? [Christian Science Monitor]

“The poll is pretty clearly an outlier.” [Washington Post's resident liberal economics blogger Ezra Klein]

“The Bloomberg poll diverges from several other national polls, which have reflected a much closer race for president.” [Wall Street Journal]

Poll Showing Obama Well Ahead Differs From Other Surveys [National Journal]

Def: The Bloomberg poll is a term used by strippers to describe a shiny metal object that they use to make their money with ….. That’s why they are called Pro’s because they have and use such tools in doing their job in such a professional manner …… You can’t do the job right unless you have the proper tools now can you?

  BLOOMBERG POLL IS CORRECT because romney has stirred little enthusiasm among independents, women are trending Obama because of pubs’ views on abortion and birth control, young people and gays support marriage equality (which pubs do not—so BIG LOSS OF INDEPENDENTS there).
  Perhaps most important, the rich and affluent look at the 60% rise in the DJIA and know Obama has done the right things to get us out of the mess the cheney/bush years and reign of error got us into.
  
  Finally, Obama has scored high on the war on terror and foreign affairs with kill of bin laden and othe a/q leaders, and the awareness of how dangerous it would be with romney knowing so little about foreign policy and war on terror in these challenging times.
  
  Mitt even comes across as weak, whereas Obama is very tough and the war on terror results have proved that. Media wants an interesting election fight for readers, but Obama should win even bigger than 2008 when the top ten richest zip codes in the U.S. supported President Obama, PROVING THE SMART AND THE RICH VOTE DEMOCRAT.
  
  If you care about your children and your money, YOU WILL VOTE OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS!

i can think of situations where that is possible, Paul voters will likely not show up or vote Obama out of spite, value voters will be to disgusted about Romneys mormonism and his liberal positions to even bother showing up, that together is about 40-50 percent of the party primary voters all together. there still appears to be a greater likelihood of an Obama victory.
