Presidential politics in the United States has changed dramatically over the course of history. Major areas of the country, as of now, will not change partisanship. Theoretically, only ten battleground states will decide the outcome on November 6. This blog is solely devoted to the battle of Iowa.

Romney: The Comeback Kid
Maybe the presidential debates DO mean something! After the second debate this week, most polls have Romney leading Obama. Gallup, one of the most trusted pollsters, has Romney up by 7 nation wide: 52-45. Meanwhile, ABC News/Washington Post has Romney ahead of the President 49-46.

Yet, there is still one more debate, and 18 days left until election day. Romney was leading in Iowa earlier this week, but now Obama is up by 4.2 points. The fluctuation in these polls is insane, and I am pretty sure that early voting is not taken into consideration for most of these polls. We all need to remember that in this electoral college system, the national popular vote does not mean a guaranteed win. More to come soon! (or constantly, if you are watching the polls...)
