Gallup: DNC helped Obama more than RNC helped Romney

New Gallup numbers out today show that President Obama got more support out of last week's Democratic National Convention in Charlotte than Republican Mitt Romney did from his convention in Tampa.

According to Gallup, 43 percent of Americans said they were more likely to support Obama because of the convention. That compares to 40 percent who said they were more likely to vote for Romney after the GOP convention.

Thirty-eight percent said they were less likely to vote for each man after their respective conventions.

Democrats shouldn't be too smug.

In 1988, 56 percent of Americans said they were more likely to vote for Democrat Michael Dukakis after his convention. Only 43 percent said the GOP convention made them more likely to vote for Republican George H.W. Bush. Remember who won that race.

Speaking of numbers, Public Policy Polling, a Democratic-leaning firm out of Raleigh, is out with a new poll that shows Obama leading Romney 49 percent to 48 percent in North Carolina. That's consistent with other PPP surveys, but contrary to polls by Elon University and others that show Romney with a slight edge in the state.

PPP did find that 57 percent of N.C. voters say the convention was a good thing for the state.

Typical socialist enabling capitalist destroyer Marxist gloating white liberal racist spew. White liberals are the real racists and always have been.

The DNC was 100% bourgeois vs proletarian Marxist socialist 3rd world enabler class warfare event just as the Communist Manifesto called for.

America is nothing special according to America hating Obama in 2008. Vote for this Kenyan born socialist bankrupter big spending sea of red ink 16 trillion debt worse ever failed president socialist Marxist radical who is totally oblivious and ignorant of business and capitalism if you want a 3rd world nation on welfare and food stamps already halfway there. America will be another Haiti Cuba or Mexico.

Marxist comrade Obama's ancient outdated yesteryear behind the times 3rd world proven economic system is over 150 years old and a proven catastrophic failure.
The Manifesto was published in 1848by Marx and Engels.
The socialist USSR completely imploded and failed in 1989 and same for China. Capitalist Reagan buried it without firing a shot. Former commie nations try desperately to convert to capitalism and rid itself of socialism while dumb Obama wants to return to a failed commie system of doom and gloom?

Russia is now capitalist under Putin and China on its way but 80 years behind as America goes back to the dark ages under Obama. What a joke.

Communist Manifesto Outline published in 1848 by Germans Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels
(Obamas alltime heros doctrine)

1.Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

2.A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3.Abolition of all right of inheritance.

4.Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5.Centralisation of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6.Centralisation of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State.

7.Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8.Equal liability of all to labour. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9.Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equitable distribution of the population over the country.

10.Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labour in its present form and combination of education with industrial production

A teabagger got up early on September 11 and the only thing they could do was spew. That's why they are going to cost Mitt Romney this election. There are only a few percent undecided and those people are middle of the road independents. Mccain lost due to the teabaggers and Mitt Romney will too. The DNC was great for Charlotte. I hope the city continues to go for high profile events. NASCAR brings in money, as well as the CIAA, the RNC should be courted next time.

After the Barack Marx Karl Obama convention of racist murderous hateful rhetoric you can make damn sure there will be no RNC for at least 500 yrs.
Nascar brings in money? lol Idiot.

Some idiots must be offended by Obamas trying to convert America into a failed Marxist system taught at all liberal universitys and colleges like Yale, Harvard, Georgetown etc.

Obama has been bathed soaked greased oiled annointed in socialist ideology plus Islam and Rev Wright black theology. Does the truth hurt?

Spread and redistribute the wealth through extortionism and taxation. Classless society. Stifle rugged individualism and free enterprise and enslave the masses to the central government dictatorship.

Get an education or STFU. Extreme ignorance and lack of academics learning plus low IQ is obvious.

The term "teabagger" is so 2010. But it shows you get your marching orders from Bill Maher.
