According to Rasmussen:
But among the stunning 92 percent of all voters in the state who say that they are certain to go to the polls on Election Day, Romney leads 51 percent to 48 percent. And among the 83 percent who have already made up their minds how they will vote, Romney is ahead 52 percent to 48 percent.

It won't last long. The fact checkers are tearing him apart, Obama raised a record $150M in Sep., and today's jobs report is great news.
Obama wins easily...for now.

The jobs report is great if you are an idiot and believe fiction.

The left or right fact checkers. Each side usually rips the other side apart with their spin.

Tell that to Goldman-Sachs, who explained today how the report is accurate.
Or, are they big Obama supporters suddenly?

I use the usual fact checkers. PolitiFact has two false statements from Obama on the front page of their app right now. But, Romney is getting, by far, the worst of it from all reliable fact checkers.

So, who are the reliable fact-checkers and exactly what makes them seem so reliable?

What about the other 8 percent of voters who are certain to go to the polls on election day? This paragraph is worded really poorly. It looks like the data is being spun to look good for Romney.
Romney leads Obama 100% to 0% among voters who are defintely voting for Romney on election day.

Factcheck.org and PolitiFact.com. They seem non-partisan.
Who, if any, do you use?

I generally look a multiple sources. I will read what the left has to say and what the right has to say and then research the issue to make up my own mind.

Yeeeaaaaahh. I was kind of thinking the same thing, but thought maybe Gil has some insight into the truth that the rest of us don't have access to.
Even if you look at what both sides are saying, you have to go SOMEWHERE to do the "research".
