Obama, Romney Deadlocked

A new poll released Tuesday shows President Obama and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney deadlocked among likely voters — but the president continuing to lead by some 7 points among all registered voters. Neither is an encouraging sign for a Romney campaign that was hoping the Republican National Convention last week would provide them an edge in the polls and some momentum headed into the final months of the election. Even more worrying for Republicans is that 46 percent of registered voters said what they saw or heard of the Republican convention in Tampa made them less likely to vote for Romney — versus just 36 percent who said it made them more likely. And more than half — 56 percent — said the GOP spent too much time criticizing the president at their convention. Those deficits suggest the GOP may have misfired in their week of programming/ Justin Sink , The Hill’s Blog Briefing Room. More here.

Question: Did you watch much of the GOP national convention? Do you plan to watch much of the Dems’ version?
