Exactly. A week or so ago this poll was very lopsided Obama and people thought it was BS. Now a lot of those same people want to believe it.
This is the umpteenth time Obama had a big lead, then McCain closed, then Obama opened up a big lead again. I truly believe we're being manipulated and the seesaw pattern will continue up until the final days before the election.
I am still waiting for a barrage of McCain ads in PA. Obama has 4-5 ads per hour to McCain's 1.
From what I hear, commercials will start popping this weekend...
Well, the point is that EVEN WITH their horrendous skewing towards Democrats, McCain still is right on Obama’s heels in this poll. If you reweight for sane turnout numbers, McCain is ahead in this poll. So, the poll is still BS, but within the context of their BS polling, this is good news.
I realize that it’s fun and convenient to play a game of ‘laugh at the hypocrite’, but that isn’t what is happening here. Nobody is under any illusion that this poll reflects reality. It is simply showing MAJOR progress in our direction, in spite of its biased nature.
A week ago I was telling anybody posting a poll that does not show the internals is a waste of time, and every time they posted the internals we were able to point out that Obama was not massively ahead as the polls said and so it was BS.
Now, in this poll the internals show Obama has a huge problem, as several others have also shown.....So, if you take this poll without the internals it is still BS.
You assume people in PA want to see either one of them. There are many who especially don't want to see a black face that's running for President 5 times an hour. It may be ugly but there you go.
Obama himself is the message.
