I knew - just knew - that the actual quote would be much different than the interpreted title. I despise the media.

"The MSM is going all out to depress the Republican turnout."

That's exactly what they are doing. Don't buy into it!

You can’t believe their “interpretation” of anything.
They are despicable scum.
Bottom dwellers... worse than that they are the bacteria growing on the feet of bottom dwellers...

This is the result of the power of the media & their overt manipulation of the race in their reports.

All Joe knows is what the polls have been saying. Here is why they are wrong;

PUMAs are predicting McCain wins 286-252…and America gets its first female Vice President.

When dealing with the “news” media, it is always a good idea to request the original quote.

Further down in the comments is apparently what Joe actually said...

And you believe polls that oversample RATS anywhere from 6-16% ?

if the last two races are indicative as an aggregate of final polling Mccain will lose by 2-5 points

but...there are some anomalies in the samplings this year so who knows

antceecee,

If you’ll notice, AmericanSphinx71 left out those little details concerning the media’s spin. Troll sign.

MAD-AS-HELL,

I never follow polls. There are too many variables, especially during elections when polls are used to try and dissuade American’s from either voting for their candidate, or bothering to go to their precinct.

This is why so many Troll’s are posting all those so called polls that show Hussein ahead on FR. These Troll’s are panty waists with their undies in a bundle. Let’s give ‘em a serious wedge tomorrow.

right now I do. Hopefully they will all be discredited with a McCain win tomorrow. A resounding drubbing of Obama would be great as to seriously damage these idiot pollsters. Repubs need to come out in droves and wipe out these socialist pricks that drive the democrat party.

Like Joe, I was born and raised in Toledo. I haven’t lived there in almost 15 years, but all of my childhood friends are exactly like Joe. Toledo is a very Union town, and subsequently very Democrat. However, I find it very difficult to believe that the white union member is going to enthusiastically vote for Obama - for too many reason to detail here in addition to the most obvious.

I don’t have any doubts that Ohio will go for McCain as well as PA. As for the rest of the country, I just don’t have a clue.

Vote!

"Even Joe the Plumber is writing McCain off??? Say it ain't so, Joe."

Here's what he said:

Earlier, the plumber stated: "Truthfully, honestly, I do believe John McCain can pull it out, but it's going to be darn tight."

So Joe the Plumber didn’t say McCain would lose at all? We don’t do the groupthink thing the MSM does in any event.

Yes, I just signed up today, but I haven’t said one thing to constitute me being a “roll” Give me a break! What have I said to “plant seeds of discontent and discouragement?” Please tell me.

If you looked at what I posted so far, you’d see I predicted McCain would WIN tomorrow. I’ve seen tons of others here today crying in there beer because they are certain McCain is going to lose. Are they trolls too.

But still, thanks for hearty welcome here!
