Monday Open Thread [7.16.12]

Filed in Open Thread by on July 16, 2012

I am moving the Polling Report to the open thread today because I didn’t have enough polls for a full polling report today and I wanted to post these polls before they got stale (they are all from Friday and over the weekend) and I didn’t have anything for the Open thread, so I am killing two birds with one stone.

NATIONAL–PRESIDENT (Gallup Tracking): Obama 47, Romney 44
NATIONAL–PRESIDENT (Pew): Obama 50, Romney 43
NATIONAL–PRESIDENT (Rasmussen Tracking): Romney 46, Obama 45
FLORIDA–PRESIDENT (Mason Dixon): Obama 46, Romney 45.

This does not change Florida’s status as Barely or Slim Obama lead. Florida has settled into a constitent polling theme recently. No candidate has been up by more than 1 point.

FLORIDA–SENATOR (Mason Dixon): Sen. Bill Nelson (D) 47, Rep. Connie Mack IV (R) 42

    One of the Funk Brothers, Bob Babbitt (bassist) has died:

    That’s him on Del Shannon’s “Little Town Flirt,” on Gladys Knight’s “Midnight Train to Georgia,” Funkadelic’s “I Just Wanna Testify,” “Cool Jerk” by the Capitols, “Rubberband Man” by the Spinners and on Dennis Coffey’s instrumental hit “Scorpio.” His bass line on the latter propels the song so memorably, that, as Detroit musician Ralphe Armstrong once said, every bass player in Detroit had to be able to play it in the 1970s or they couldn’t get a gig.

    Oh wow, Sage Stallone has passed away. Sylvester’s oldest son, only 36. Terrible.
