Poll Shows Obama and Romney Tied

Most still think the President will be reelected

(Reuters) - The U.S. presidential race remains a dead heat one week before Election Day but most Americans think President Barack Obama will defeat Republican Mitt Romney, according to a Reuters/Ipsos daily tracking poll released on Tuesday.

Obama leads Romney among likely voters by 47 percent to 46 percent, a statistically insignificant margin, the online survey found. Neither candidate has held a clear lead since early October.

I think Obama CAN be reelected just as easily as Romney can be elected. Of course if Obama is reelected the first thing I'm doing is removing the Gary Johnson bumper sticker off my car. A lot of drunken idiot rednecks down here who don't understand how the Electoral College system works are going to be looking for people to blame for Romney's defeat. And I'm not about to get dragged out of my car and beat to death by some angry mob.
