Just announced -- Fox is dumping exist polls after determining that they are biased towards Dems 6-8+ percent. Will use just raw vote totals for rest of election.
So yes, he richly deserves the "RINO" label.
While I have never been "exit polled" I have be phone polled a number of times, and every time but once, I have answered their questions the exact opposite of what I think.
Why? They are using classical and very valid AND sophisticate marketing technology to make decisions regarding OUR future based on how it effects their political future as opposed to what is the best option. I want to screw these people up. This technology is great if you are selling widgets and want a leg up on your competitor and I have no problem with that. But as a method of determining the fate of the nation, it is a horrendous technology that makes the sound bite more important than substance.
I want politicians to not trust any poll and to once again begin to think for themselves, right or wrong and to formulate informed opinions as opposed to "popular" opinions or doing a "Clinton" and sticking their finger in the wind every time their is a tough choice.
If you are a patriotic American, it is your duty to lie to political pollsters who allow their considerable skills to manipulate our future as opposed to allowing open debate and reasoned decisions. Anytime they call you, tell them the exact opposite of what you really think -- (or just make up some really screwy stuff and see if you can crash their computers.) If we can put the Greenbergs, Zobgy's and Rassumussin's of the world on the unemployment line, we may well get our Constitutional Republic back.
Understanding how the mathematics of sampling work, it does not take very many to really screw up their models. Please resist the temptation of telling some college kid working for minimum wage in a phone bank "What You Really Think". Instead, lie like hell to the kid and be "sincere" while you're doing it. You will be preforming a patriotic service. If you want to write to or talk to the politicians themselves, don't hold back -- let them have it. That will create even more dissonance when the pollsters tell them one thing, and you tell them the opposite. It will separate the wheat from the chaff.
Changing MSM/liberals is like pulling a racoon out of a garbage can in the middle of the night.

I don't want to change them. I want them gone.
They are garbage hunters and always have been, even back in Ben Franklin's day. Sorry to break your heart.
Btw, in your long history of making asinine statements, that one could very well be the most asinine of them all.
Lieberman forgot to thank Sean Hannity, Glen Beck, etc.
Ooops. "Glenn"
It shouldn't. If you got slapped on three previous occasions, on the fourth you should look for a different variable. The absentee and early votes get counted later on. Turn the TV off and go to bed early. There are large amounts of absentee ballots to be counted.
KRLA 870 AM in Los Angeles. or go to hughhewitt.com for streaming or a local station to you. All the rest insult your intelligence. TV OFF!
I'm just hoping Pubbies learned the lesson of 2000 and didn't get off the line when the state was "called".
If Fox keeps putting Kristol on the air, they are going to keep losing market share!
I missed Steyn. Ordered his new book last night. Why doesn't this guy have his own radio show? He's awesome.
Perhaps there is a replay of Hewitt now or midnight.
Well, this is true of course, but I personally only got slapped really hard in 04, my first presidential election...Guess I'm just not used to it yet. I'm just hoping steele is vindicated!
I'll try harder to be patient :)
Kean is losing
Bob Menendez(D) - winner 855587 (54%)
Thomas Kean(R) 695466 (43%)
Fox needs to fire Hemmer, Jarrett, Scarface, O'Reilly and a few others. E.D. Hill needs to go back to Fox and Friends.
That's why I'm barely even paying attention tonight. They pulled this same shit in 2000 and 2004.
