Heard on the radio last week (maybe Hannity) where he was asking the guy from Quinnipiac about over sampling. The poll dude said they don’t ask party affilliation until after the questions and that is how they end up with an “over sample”. So Sean says well what if they all turn out to be democrats and the guy says well they would throw that out. So Sean says what is the percent they use to determine legitimacy especially since they are oversampling at rate greater than the 2008 or 2010 actual election numbers. All he would say is they don’t ask the question until the end.

This tells me they have their agenda and are follwong the script.

I still think that the great silent majority will rise up and correct the error of 2008 and this will be end in huge defeat for Obama.

If they take a sample like this they need to normalize their data by using only likely voter respondents then adjust the sample by adjusting it to current voter registration demographics. Then you have scientific credibility.
