Polls are looking favorable for Obama. He's up by around 3 points nationally in every major poll in the last two weeks, with the exception of one from Rasmussen, which has Romney by 2.
And at the state level, numbers are trending for Obama in Florida, Virginia and bigtime in Ohio. Wisconsin appears to be a tight race, and North Carolina is probably going back to the red column (and a Republican governor, and a Republican legislature....gods help us all)
Yeah...about those polls. Other than Rasmussen Reports, most of them are HEAVILY skewed with a majority Democrat Party ID, matching or even exceeding that of 2008. If you're expecting the same kind of enthusiasm from Democrats in 2012, I think you'll be in quite a surprise.

Yup, nothing but a bunch of treehuggers and potsmokers there. Thankfully we have the steadfastly (un)reliable Rasmussen to show us the Truth.
Your "evidence" is a blogger who rebalances all polls to match the house lean of Gallup and Rasmussen, which Nate Silver has pointed out
have a distinct Republican lean. (So does Fox News, and it should be noted that both Fox and Gallup have Obama up, by +5 and +1 respectively). So yeah...when you adjust all national polls to match Republican-skewed polls, it's no huge surprise you get Republican-skewed results.
I'm with you guys...this appears to be a new evolution in spambots.
