RE :”I responded because I too don't remember any Dem win polls. To prove your point you post a couple of Freeper posts. That hardly proves there were not your type of “realist” postings that the Republicans would be lucky to break 25 seats.

You missed this then ,

"I should have said ‘many’ polls" at #9 correcting #7

I am sure MSNBC found a poll too that showed Dems ahead at the time, irrelevant as Newspeak

but that doesnt explain all the freepers here saying that all the polls they saw Republicans were not doing good, or in one case great when that 2010 FR post HEAR clearly showed that multiple polls were showing Republicans winning a landslide’

Notice there was not one comment on that FR poll post calling those polls meaningless.

Definitely mass hypnosis, Rush maybe?

The problem here is that Freepers, just like their counterparts on the dark side (DU) have an emotional response to polls, and are in denial over polls showing their guy is losing. Hence the current refusal to even accept Rasmussen who is on our side. Bottom line - Romney will lose quite handily (perhaps winning at most 230 or so EVs) if the election were held today according to all the polls.

Even if some polls may be skewed in one direction or another, they are actually collectively indicating the same thing - Romney losing to 0. No question about that.

The aggregate trends are all pointing in the same direction, even if the exact numbers may be slightly off. And we should believe these aggregate trends, more than the hysterics of Freepers in denial.

We saw the same characters saying the same things here in 2008, but as you point out, when polls were all indicating massive Republican landslides in October 2010, no one complained about MSM conspiracy theories.
