Like EVERYTHING the left does, this too will backfire against there agenda in the end.

Skewed polling at this point only makes us work harder, and it makes leftists complacent.

There’s the good side to the notion of always campaigning as if you are 10 points behind.

“will likely correct themselves at some point or another.”

I have my doubts. I think this time they are so invested in Obama’s reelection they cannot come clean.

On Nov. 7 we will wake up to either the most phenomenal case of fraud in polling history-—and a Romney victory-—or the fact that there are indeed 7-15% more Democrats in America (or, more unbelievably still, that Rs voted for Obama).

The polling agencies probably have been flooded with funds in effect to favor Obama, whatever it takes from gold to lead the Obama machine and its puppetmasters will try to brainwash America the futility of opposing Islamic control over America.

The MSM and Dems are using the polls for cover.

If Obama wins, the polls showing Obama even or ahead were correct and the supposed oversampling of Dems becomes irrelevant.

If Romney wins, shock and surprise, a shellacking (remember 2010?), where did Team Obama go wrong? Recounts. The election was fixed, rigged. Too many dead Republicans voted. Dems were intimidated and kept away from the ballot boxes. Wahhhhhh, Waaaaaaaahhhh

[The purpose of the oversampling is a propagandist attempt to sway voters toward the ‘winning’ candidate bandwagon.]

Two decades ago, when I didn’t have cable, I noticed the network news programs frequently headlined polls (that they commissioned) as one of the major news stories. Slow news day? Commission a poll. So what if poll content can be written in such a manner that produces a desired result.

If Romney-Ryan do win in a landslide of Reagan proportions, it could very well signify that MSM have lost much of their influence on the general public.

This is an excellent, cool-headed analysis.

Oversampling, too much of it.
