"Cooked media polls. Of course, it has long been the intent of media polls to move public opinion, not to measure it. ..". Exactly. Do you remember which media mouthpiece bragged that it is able to deliver 15 points for the RATS?

Yeah, it was that doofus from Newsweek. He later backtracked on his boast, one, because it realized how stupid it was to admit they were trying to manipulate the electorate, and two, because they couldn't deliver on the 15%. I do suspect, however, that had the MSM even been somewhat fair and balanced, Bush would have won by 5-10% two years ago.
