So now we’re supposed to like Fox News’ poll?
We like whatever poll gives us the results we want to see. Don’t pay any attention to the fact that this is a trailing indicator and that the McCain gains have stopped according to 3 daily polls.

Not you. It doesnt show him losing by 15%
Brand new poll from NBC News !
Obama 99.0%
McCain 0.9 %
Nader 0.1%
Margin of error plus or minus 3.5 percent. Only NBC news staff were included in this sample.
Obviously you don’t.
Seems to me, I could be wrong, that you enjoy polls with favorable Obama stats. Wondering why.

I don’t think any of them are intended to gage public opion, their intent, to mold opinion, is much more sinester. Polls wouldn’t be nearly as important if we hadn’t turned into a democracy sometime ove the last 75 years. Rush just said that we have had over 700 national polls for this election, that is not for the people running the polls to obtain information!
no--nobody here expects you to like this poll... however, i take this poll as an indication of a trend... that the race is tightening... or that it is beyond tightening and McCain is pulling ahead...
The Fox poll has always been Democrat leaning. Fox had Kerry winning the popular vote by 2%
So this is very surprising.
