While I do not pay much attention to polls this early in a Presidential campaign, I could not help but laugh when I saw the following story on Politico today. Whirly's beloved FAUX News' most recent poll has Obama 7 points up on Romney.
Gee, I can't help but wonder how Whirly missed it!

Fox poll: Obama over Romney
5/17/12 8:14 AM EDT
A new poll from Fox News has President Obama leading Mitt Romney by 7 percentage points.
The poll -- which put Obama ahead 46 percent to 39 -- paints a rosier picture for Obama than several others this week, including surveys from Rasmussen and the Washington Times that showed Romney leading by a single percentage point and one from Gallup that had the candidates in a dead heat.
The Real Clear Politics
polling average has Obama ahead by 2.5 points.
The Fox News Poll -- jointly overseen by one Democratic- and one Republican-leaning firm -- surveyed 913 registered voters earlier this week. The poll had a 3 percentage point margin of error.
Respondents in the poll said they would prefer Romney as their investment advisor by a 47-to-34 margin. But when asked which candidate they would hire as a life coach, respondents backed Obama 47 percent to 33.
