What is the point of this post? Are you actively trying to depress republican turnout? We know the media sure are and we know the media sure aren’t on our side. The media are pushing hard to convince McCain-Palin supporters that the race is already over and to not bother waiting in line to vote.

Et tu?

Unfortunately if your post is any indication then they are winning the psychological war.

As for the polls, we have to keep in mind that pollsters need to please the media in order to get their polls noticed. Hence, there is a strong motivation to be biased toward the bias of the media. Especially this year with the media casting aside all pretense of objectively in order to promote and protect Obama at every turn. Therefore, a poll unfavorable to Obama is a poll totally ignored while a poll ridiculously in favor of Obama is a poll that is regurgitated over and over by the media.

The internals of these polls reveal that they are banking on democrats turning out in far larger numbers than republicans. And the media and the pollsters have been effectively working side by side (master and puppet) trying to make that a reality......so let’s not continue to help the enemy, okay?
