US Unemployment = 8.3%


BBC News: Reports that US unemployment rate rose from 8.2% to 8.3%.

Lets Get Real:

This is not good news for President Obama, the voter sees the rate and thinks OMG, in English, O MY God, as the article notes a 163,000 jobs were created in July in the US, but that is not enough, to get the rate down. Also Obama might be getting hit by the good PR that the elite media is putting on the US economy, if you read the article you get the impression that things are turning around, that is a problem for Obama, as people that gave up might come back in to unemployment rate as they are searching for jobs. In other words elite stop helping POTUS, your causing a plus - negative reaction.

Obama vs. Romney - The Polls



It is that time of the week folks, the Polls, they are only a snapshot, but defines the Weekend political talk shows in the US.

Rasmussen Reports ( LV ): Reports on its daily tracking poll, today Governor Romney leads President Obama by 47% to 43%. Thus a 5% lead.

Gallup ( RV ): Report on its daily tracking poll, today President Obama leads Governor Romney by 47% to 45%.

Lets Get Real:

Thus folks its a dead heat, neither Obama or Romney have a solid lead that they can depend on, although State Polls give Obama the edge they are close, thus one really has to wait for Romney VP choice, then the National Conventions and then finally the all important DEBATES. Thus folks we have weeks of negative adverts, Obama is out of touch by Romney and from the Obama Camp that Romney is a rich elitist who favours the rich over the middle class and the poor, the record has not changed that much folks over the last few MONTHS, we wait for some clear space in the polls, something to happen that will push either Candidate ahead that will allow the political geeks to think about the result in November with some clear Empirical evidence.
