Well if no polls contradict the propaganda, it will definitely work. All polls now showing Trump losing big time. Scares the crap out of me.

“Well if no polls contradict the propaganda, it will definitely work. All polls now showing Trump losing big time. Scares the crap out of me.”

So basically you are just a passive observer looking for a survey to define your mood?

And people here have the nerve to look down on leftists as pajama boys and weak snowflakes?

People are interested in winning the election, not winning a poll. Because frankly when the numbers are tied or positive in our favor, I dont see people doing much more than kicking back. But get a negative result and this site turns into 2,000 political consultants and another 2,000 people cowering in the corner, complaining about propaganda.

Are you doing anything to help counter it? I swear the GOPe puts up a bigger fight than conservatives seem to do.

Most polls have them tied, as of yesterday.

All media paid for polls are scaring the crap out of you?

Tune them out and go vote in November and convince others as well.

That is the only poll that matters

Trump is never, ever, going to leading a media bought at paid for poll for the rest of the election season

Four continuously-updated or most recent nationwide polls (LAT/USC, UPI, Reuters and Raz) (the first three are internet-based, and the fourth a robo-caller poll) show the race to be relatively close. The state polls that show lop-sided leads are inconsistent with these. Big suspicion that method of polling is important. Live-caller polls differ enormously from internet-based and robo-caller polls. To illustrate, last week Opinion Savvy (robo-caller) showed the race a statistical tie in Florida, whereas the Marist College (live-caller) poll gave Clinton a 5 point lead.

BOTTOM LINE: The polls are wrong (in the sense of outside the margin of error) about half the time nowadays, and when they are, they are always biased against conservative. Here’s my rule: if the polls show us down by 6 points, the odds are fifty-fifty that the race is a toss-up. If the polls show us up, we’re up.

Donglalinger has installed a Free Republic fainting couch for fainting Freepers, whenever the media tells us Trump is out of line or losing in another left wing poll, and Freeper panic/swooning and pearl clutching ensues.

Thanks, Donglalinger, and I will donate their formerly clutched pearls to the latest Freepathon!

I’m trying not to let these “polls” scare me. Most Trump supporters are flying below the radar — not talking or posting support yard signs or bumper stickers for fear of recrimination. I think there is more support for Trump than we think. I have never been polled in my life, and most of these “polls” are skewed in favor of Her Heinous. JMHO
