Without question, the Bradley Effect is a factor in this election as it proved to be a major factor in the 2008 election.

You and I must be the only people who actually read the American Thinker article about the Bradley Effect. Just because McCain lost doesn’t mean there was no Bradley Effect.

Had there not been a Bradley Effect Obama would have won a much larger plurality.

” CBS poll near election day predicted that McCain would win the white vote by a mere 3%, and on election day the Republican actually brought in 12% more of the vote than the Democrat. Had it not been for an unusually high turnout among blacks and minorities, Obama’s landslide would have been a lot closer.”

I’m sure the Bradley Effect and Shy Tory Syndrome will help Romney significantly, and most certainly it is showing up in their private polling.

No way do I believe these lying polls showing a tight race.
