Yes, regardless of top line #, Obama cannot get above that infamous 47% in any poll. And at least this one shows, not major national shift to Obama here in the waning days.
I don’t recall ever getting as many calls as I’ve had this year from pollsters. Maybe it’s due to my wife being a `free-thinker’ in years past or my misspent political youth and their records show we may be `polling gold’.
But once they pose the stock: “Do you believe that you’re better off now than 4 years ago ... “ query, and I start giving them an earful (e.g. Heeeeeellllll no!) the disappointment on the other end is tangible.
I spoke to a `Lateesha’ this morning; sorry darlin’ but you asked.
So I guess we’ll see, but I expect this Tuesday night when it’s looking a lot like deja-1980 all over again for the Dems, and then when the dust settles ... four years from now they’ll be pulling out the same: “9 out of 10 pollsters, who also happen to be TV medical doctors, using quasi-scientific methodology virtually untainted by partisan sampling bias, on odd-numbered days influenced by neap tides blah blah blah” happy crappy, Pappy.
I’m ready for this to be over so we can start riding Romney in the right direction. My one-time tag line, below, demonstrates my near crab-boat fatigue with the pols, their hired hands and the polls.
