Maybe some of the MSM restrained themselves in 2004. But there is no law prohibiting calling elections early. No way the MSM will follow that restraint this year...as we have clearly seen with MSM shenanigans of the last couple of months.
No doubt they already have the numbers they will be using and Biden is chewing at the bit to leak them ;-)
Would love to see his extravagant stage turned into a flaming funeral pyre of his campaign!
I bet if any of you do, you lie through your teeth just to drive them nuts.”
Last month I was poled about Oregon politics. I was hesitant to participate as most questions are biased and written to ascertain their desired conclusions. Of course they wanted to know what race I was and I told them I was American. He was not satisfied and eventually I lied to him and told him I was black. I pretty much lied from that point on and messed with him.
Nader and McKinney could siphon enough votes from Obama in some states to make it difficult for him to win them!
That first firing can be a good motivator for some to get their acts together...I hope it helped some of the ones your firm fired!
I’m dying to tell them I’m Cherokee and I don’t like the Dem’s because of what Andrew Jackson did to my people in the 1830’s...
How would selection bias not dwarf everything else the polls are trying to measure?
Obama won't lose on November 4. If there's even one state that goes for him, I wouldn't count on him not to seek to have all of McCain's Electors disqualified or eliminated. I don't think he'd succeed, but I'd still be wary of the possibility.
If they weren't that far off, they how come they called it for Gore rather than holding off and saying too close to call?
People lie all the time especially in surveys and polls.
Rxit poll data is worthless and useless. It’s never accurate.
Furthermore, the thing I hate most though are those network news stations who always call states prematurely for a candidate instead of waiting for all the votes to come in [100%]. That really curdles my guts. And that’s what really happened in 2000. It wasn’t Bush’s fault. It was the damn network news assholes that called Florida way too early.
