Rats sampled by 15% more than repubs in poll. Independents sampled by 12% more than repubs. Independents never split evenly. they almost always go rat.
Whole poll is oversampled bias toward Rats, yet Obama only gets a 15 point lead. Obama's in deep dog doo-doo

Newsweek says he's up 15 points, but gallop says its 2.

As usual, the only poll that is going to count is the one in November and the MSM will try and manipulate people's minds with all kinds of false flags until that date to try and influence things towards their idol, Obama.

But they will be disappointed.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Obama got his bounce, Dukakis style.

"Dukakis style" - is that where Newsweek presents a poll showing the Democratic nominee with a big lead not found in any other poll in the country? And then gets papers like this to present this oddball poll as news? McCain and Obama are statistically tied according to most current polls.

u think wisely

If Newsreek called you, would you answer their poll? I wouldn’t. I suspect Newsreek polls are inherently biased.
