Remember all the crybullies who said John Kerry should have won because the polls show he was more popular around the world?

Why? Why should the establishment Republicans think I go along with them? I tell callers from the National Republican Whatevers the same thing: You have sold us out so many times, you will never get another nickel of my money. You want my money, go talk to the NRA, because that’s where it’s going.

My Congressman is Dr. Michael Burgess. I don’t think he is a heavyweight conservative, but he is an honest, caring individual, and he won’t kill babies, so I do support him. But I doubt a pollster has ever been that specific.

I agree with the article completely. We must remember most people, i.e.voters are not die hard libs or conservatives. Most dont follow politics at all. Its better to refuse to respond at all than lie and say you are for the other guy. Human nature makes people want to vote for the winner. Like it or not people want to be accepted and liked by others. When you see a bunch of yard signs in your neighborhood, you think, well he must be a well liked guy, everyone seems to like him, they must know something about him I don’t know, I think I will vote for him, etc. Some will not vote if they think their guy will lose and yet some will go with who they think will win. Enough of them to make a difference in some close elections.
Remember the pollsters don’t care what you think, its to effect the undecided voters or those who will change their minds.
Remember we are an echo chamber here, most people and voters are not like us.

It helps them determine a plausibility window for cheating via manufactured votes.

your conclusions are based on illusions... no way of knowing if the decrease is because of me lying to pollsters or republicans lack of back bone.

I not only lie to pollsters I registered Democrat. They’re the only ones who would kill or jail you for being the wrong party.

“2. Allow cover for the Dems cheating”

Tactics - telling a pollster that you are voting D helps overstate the D support. At the DNC, if D support is perceived to be good, they may cancel the plan to submit bogus ballots, stop vote harvesting, etc.

lying is simple self-protection against the fascist forces tracking down conservatives and arresting them ...

Polls are useless and biased and for every one person that may be honest there’s hundreds that aren’t.
