PPP may be a left polling firm but it’s also highly accurate.

Wrong. PPP is a precise poll which is always with
a fake "sauce", now for the liar, RINO Mitt Romney.

VOTE FRAUD FOR THE RINO ROMNEY

"Vote Count Error? Did Rick Santorum Really Win the Iowa Caucuses?
DES MOINES, Iowa - Edward True, 28, of Moulton, said he helped count the votes
and jotted the results down on a piece of paper to post to his Facebook page.
He said when he checked to make sure the Republican Party of Iowa
got the count right, he said he was shocked to find they hadn’t.
“When Mitt Romney won Iowa by eight votes and I’ve got a
20-vote discrepancy here, that right there says Rick Santorum won Iowa,” True said. “Not Mitt Romney.”


"Several UNREPORTED news reports have it that Romney
did not win the Iowa Caucuses.
Barring any objective, verifiable proof that shows more than 12 votes mistakenly
being credited to Santorum, Romney lost."


"Could Typo Rewrite Caucus History? (Santorum may regain win)"

Well, if it’s “highly accurate,” then jump your lilybutt onto the bandwagon, but stop insulting everyone here by expecting them to jump onto a bandwagon being steered by liberals. Sheesh.

BANDWAGON EFFECT

The Bandwagon effect, also known as social proof or “cromo effect” and closely related to opportunism, is the observation that people often do and believe things because many other people do and believe the same things. The effect is often pejoratively called “herding instinct,” particularly when applied to adolescents. People tend to follow the crowd without examining the merits of a particular thing. The bandwagon effect is the reason for the bandwagon fallacy’s success.

(SNIP)

Use in Politics

The bandwagon effect occurs in voting: some people vote for those candidates or parties who are likely to succeed (or are proclaimed as such by the media), hoping to be on the ‘winner’s side’ in the end. The Bandwagon effect has been applied to situations involving majority opinion, such as political outcomes, where people alter their opinions to the majority view (McAllister and Studlar 721). Such a shift in opinion can occur because individuals draw inferences from the decisions of others, as in an informational cascade.

No one said it was not accurate, the BS was about Santorum and his surge, NH is not an indicator of anything, hell humpman has worked his rump off there and lost, he needs to go back to work for obummer.

"Left" and "highly accurate" are mutually exclusive.

The Romney campaign is not a great thing to support here.

Wrong answer. PPP has never been accurate.
