Obama's lead increases

There's good news for President Obama in two new polls.

A CNN/ORC poll gives him a 52% to 45% lead over Mitt Romney.

A Fox News poll shows Obama leading by 49% to 40%.   That's up from 45% to 42% a month ago.

Poll watchers are attributing this jump to the negative ad campaign by the Obama groups.   The number of Independents who have an unfavorable opinion of Romney has climbed from 40% to 52% since May.

Pundits are attributing it to the barrage of negative ads put out by the Obama people.  The thing about Democratic negative ads, though, is that all they have to do is tell the truth about the Republicans.   The more people really know about Republican policies and plans, the less they like them.
