LOL! I’m glad I wasn’t the only one!
Gotta be rigged. It’s been 68 to 32 from the get go.
You made me swat my screen!
(Some fruit flies got into the house, so I really do have little critters land on my screen once in a while)
Obama flubs his announcement of Biden and the crowd goes “HEH”
McCain does what Odumbo couldn’t announcing Palin and the crowd goes “Hip hip hooray for John McCain”
Think about it for a second, if McCain wins then REPUBLICANS were the first party to Elect A woman to the Executive Branch of the United States Government...
AND
Democrats will be the first Party to have a Black Nominee for President lose.
This will be TWO large hits on their champion of women/minorities status.
They just can't afford this loss so its katie-bar-the-door till the 2nd Tuesday this coming November.
All this does is demonstrate the leftward demographic that watches and clings to to CNN.
Just making a statement here: All polls are inaccurate. You can't sample 700 to 1,000 people and get an idea about anything. Statistically, and I took statistics, it is simply impossible to get anything beyond a "guesstimate."
In 1996, 99% of the polls were so wrong on predicting the contest that they were outside their margins of error. Now what good is a margin of error for if it can be exceeded?? Clinton was supposed to beat Dole by 22-28%, but only won by around 6%. Skewed polls can suppress voters by making them think their candidate is going to lose. Why bother to vote?
I went ballistic in 1996. I started up a campaign for something I called the "Truth In Polling Act" and called/wrote my representatives. They ended up writing and passing their own legislative poll regulation, but I like to think I helped get something going. Polls can be used as propaganda and their effect in tampering with a national and constitutional exercise of the American people should not be taken lightly.
This is why pollsters make so much money. It is less possible today, but still possible, to get what you pay for. If Hillary needed a good poll, she could always get one. You can bet if Hillary paid for a poll and didn't like the numbers... it would be sent back as 'incomplete work' and 'try again' or the imperative may have been "I need some good numbers for Sundays paper, call as many of your cousins as you have to, but I need good numbers SUNDAY, got it?"
Money talks.
Good points. And your right money does talk. Ironically though, if obama or hillary were to win our economy would collapse and the shrinking dollar would evaporate into nothingness.
It just gets better every day....
You are out of your mind.
Right now McCain/Palin are struggling to even outpoll Obama. Maybe your whole clan is voting for McCain, but that isn’t representative of the country
I’ve seen that before, but I must admit, you got me.
I reached for it and then realized I’d been had. LOL
