While the two presidential candidates, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama, prepare for their second debate on Oct. 7 at Belmont University in Nashville, Tom Brokaw gets to sift through questions submitted by you. In addition to queries from a group randomly selected by the Gallup organization, Brokaw will be fielding questions submitted online at mydebates.org, the site created by the Commission on Presidential Debates and Myspace. The focus of the town hall-style debate will be domestic and foreign policy, Brokaw's specialties.
1) I start with the premise that only one poll counts, and that is the vote itself. And since anyone can say yes on a poll but never pull the lever, the two are disconnected.
2) I then look at who conducts these polls, and what is their agenda? I'm speaking about the people at the ground level, not the front men like Rasmussen or Zogby. They are mostly liberal wannabe journalists.
3) Thus, I dismiss virtually all polls, certainly all national polls since they are meaningless anyway and we should all be saying that loudly, otherwise too many people will cave in to the popular vote push by the libs.
In summary, yes.
