But, there have been so many other polls recently, showing Obama ahead.

There was the one showing Obama with a big lead among women.

Then there was the one showing that moderate/independent voters in the swing states preferred Obama.

Are some of these other polls just propaganda, to make us think that Obama is more popular than he really is???

It all depends on who you ask and whether or not you screen for people who actually vote.

Likely voters give the most accurate poll followed by registered voters and then adults. Ras uses likely voters and most of the others don't. One way to make Obunga appear stronger is to poll only adults and also to increase the proportion of rats.
