Puhleeze...I am for McDonnell but be honest in your headline...given the disparity by one, drop the outliers and you will get a more realistic...misled people eventually wise up and you get Tea Parties (LEFT-LEANING TO BE SURE)...Conservatives must be more honest than the avg Progressive. I hope, to be sure, that this outlier is the real thing...

The headline was completely honest.

That poll says McDonnell is up by 14.

By the way, if you look at the next poll (the PPP), it has Deeds support at 43% —only 2% higher than Survey’s 41%.

What on earth are you babbling about?
Survey USA had McDonnell up by 14, which is exactly what the headline said.
What us YOUR problem?
It gives you great pain that McDonnell is going to win?

Chirsitie is ahead by an even bigger margin in NJ(RCP average), than McDonnell is in Virginia.
Christie will win.
Corzine is finished.

Obot trools abound. I guess ACORN has been laying off a lot of them.

Lets see ...

2 Guvs this year ...
2-3 Guvs in 2010 ...
3-4 Senators in 2010 ...
20-27 Representatives in 2010 ...

Yeah - that’ll do nicely ...

If this Xmas retail sales are worst than 2008 or the same, and unemployment (U3 numbers) is at 10+. The Dems will lose more in the House.

Yup.
Things are not looking too bad at all.
And the beauty of it is, we could even do better in the House races in 2010, given that 0bozo seems determined to drive straight towards hell with his insane, loony left policies, and has shown no signs whatsoever of changing course in any way.

“20-27 Representatives in 2010”

Those estimates are very conservative. If the economy continues to stagnate and Obozo continues to aggravate the number of Rat losses can easily triple or quadruple.

Survey USA is consistently one of the most accurate polling groups out there.

I am looking for a lot more than these. Let's hope for 40-60 Reps.

OK, but isn’t that only true at election day?

We can never be sure that the polling up to the election was ever accurate. It’s hard to believe when you see the same polling firm showing wild swings back and forth, that at least some of the “movement” is polling error.

Anyway, it’s like saying the weatherman is very accurate because, even though all his forecasts are wrong, he always manages to tell you it’s raining right about when it starts raining.
