Just saw it on Fox. Another Mainstream media poll that has Obama way ahead.
AP, Battleground, and TIPP have it within three!! Let’s ROLL!!
GOTV..TURNOUT!!
Another FReeper posted on another thread that on Election Day 1980 polls showed Reagan and Carter tied. Ha!
The final Fox News poll predicted a 2 point Kerry win.
There are 20 polling outfits and most of them will get it wrong!
One more thing, Fox had Kerry winning on their last poll in November before the election in 2004!!
Absurd. Lets just VOTE
It’s safe to say that this is the most difficult election in history for pollsters to get a firm pulse on what people are thinking.
Bodes well for whoever is trailing IMO.
Some oversampling of Dems here. They’ve got them with a +6 advantage vs historical high of +3-4 (it was even in 2004).
FoxNews must be using the same kind of heavily Democratic weighting that the major networks are using. It would be better that they conduct no poll at all if they are going to do that- just gives the libs a chance to say “even Fox says we’re way ahead.”
First Fox evaluates McCain’s last debate performance worse than the regular media, now they are trying to emulate their polling techniques. If not for the Hannity special on Obama they keep running, I’d think they were trying to curry favor with Obama.
This election cycle Fox is unabashedly in the tank for Hussein.
These polls are not even close.
I would like the moderators to pull every frickin’s thread that has a poll in it. With the wide swing in every one of them from day to day, no one has a clue. Better to simply stop talking about them and get our folks elected. I’m gonna see Sarah this weekend
Looks like Fox needs to check out DrudgeReport to get their news. LOL
“Absurd. Lets just VOTE”
That comes later. Right now, let’s just CANVASS. I’ve canvassed before, and let me tell you, there are a few percentage points of people who aren’t real political and who love having a friendly person come and talk with them. These polls are designed to have the Obama supporters flying high, going through the neighborhoods canvassing people. From talking to my aunt in Missouri, the Obama folks are way ahead of McCain in canvassing.
Voting isn’t enough- we need to canvass.
“This election cycle Fox is unabashedly in the tank for Hussein.”
If not for Hannity, I would agree. He’s sticking it to Hussein pretty good.
I wonder where Scott gets his phone numbers from.
