'But in the process you are shaping opinion. Predictions can be self-confirming, because wishy-washy voters might go with the candidate who is perceived to be more successful.'
I finally understand why all the polls are rigged to make it look like Kerry is winning-predictions can be self-confirming...! No wonder the polls were wrong in GA during the 2002 election! Democrat polls are a bunch of lies; they aren't measuring public opinion; rather, they are attempting to shape public opinion! People are naturally drawn to winners (perceived as strong etc). Well it didn't work in GA , and I don't think it will work in 2004.
Democrats are a bunch of liars. It's part of their general moral depravity. To them, lying is nothing more than a clever tactic.
No, it didn't work in Georgia in 2002, and it didn't work in Florida in 2002, and it didn't work in New Hampshire or Missouri or Minnesota, either.
And it didn't work in California last year.
