Zogby posted an op-ed over at Newsmax saying that he
was right even though he was wrong!
I'm not kidding!

Why in the world was Zogby even looking at the exit polls to make his 'prediction'. I guess I will wait until the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl before I boldly make my 'prediction'. It is just stupid that a pollster relies on other polls to make his prediction. Obviously Zogby did not like what his numbers were showing. Zogby has gone completely down the tubes.
After I got married, I noticed that I was regularly wrong even though I was right.
Maybe an alternate universe, huh?

This has been a trend now for the last decade with the media: They continue to call Democrat states early in the evening, while they hold back on Republican states. They do this despite the fact that many times, the margin of victory is closer in the Dem states, than in the GOP states. As this piece mentions....we didn't have this problem with Exit Polls until Republicans started winning.

Conservative, not Republican. There's certainly a difference.
The unfortunate thing about the collusion between MSM and the Kerry campaign is that I don't think there will be anything done about it. Republicans (Bush) won and people are so tired they have moved on to their regular lives.
I hope there is an investigation and something is done but I am not holding my breath.
Here's a crazy idea...eliminate exit polls.
One possibility for the skewed exit polls is that they were manufacturing cover for the ensuing fraud had the election been close and they been able to cheat. They would have used the exit poll resuls as corroborating "evidence".
I have no doubt that you're right, because lefties are already using the phoiny polls as "evidence." For these people, every wild rumor they invent counts as "hard evidence."
BTTT
That boring?
I'm not kidding!

Did he say something like Dan Rather's, "the documents were fake, but the story was true"?
I'll have to check it out. Thanks.
Europeans are already buying the cospiracy theory of stollen election for Bush.
Notice also the media is not reporting the new WIDER popular vote margins.

But didn't the Master Pollster, Lenski, say that exit polls are NOT for the purpose of calling tight races? No, they spend all those millions just for the sake of disinterested knowledge down the road, LOL!
I don't know if this is a rumor or not but I heard that some liberals like DU were watching different polls waiting for the exit pollsters. When they spotted one being used they called others to come over. They would go in the election section and come out to be interviewed. It's almost believable since they swamp all media polls this past year with false votes. Another observation that I made and probably others did too... People had weeks to vote early and they were not polled. These were most likely the people that someone else mentioned on here that were voting against all kinds of things.. gay marriage, abortion, etc. So they voted for Bush. A lot of the people who might have turned out on election day were Democrat voters who knew in their media warped minds that there was no urgency. They'd just show up and Kerry would be elected. The rest of us were mad, upset and scared about a Kerry victory. I voted early just to get that out of my system.. with a vengeance especially against Edwards. I'm in N.C. I felt better voting early and I told others to do it for therapy. Just a thought. :-)

I envy you your track record. Since I got married, I've NEVER been right. (But still I thank God for her, every day!)
