Right now I think polling is completely broken. Even before the Democrats turning towards violence, few people talked to pollsters. Most who still have landlines just use them as voicemail unless they recognize the call. And with the violence I can’t ever imagine saying “why yes, total stranger, I would be glad to tell you all of my political beliefs”. Most who call me on the landline are salesmen violating the federal “do not call list”, beggars, outright scammers and pollsters. Friends and work know my cell phone.
I really hope that is so. It is true that I certainly do not answer the phone to anyone but the numbers I know.
I really cannot imagine voting for any Democrat but then my husband’s family in NJ are complete dems and swallow the msnbc bunk hook line and sinker. My husband gives them incredibly good arguments and they stick to their stupid point of view. I can only imagine it is because they’ve always been Democrats and think the old bunk line, the Republicans are for money and the Dems are for the little guy.
