Polls are propaganda sheep herders.

Here is why I no longer waste time on Fox unless something serious is going on... last night the dark stars were lamenting the polls and Mitt's demise... they all said, “All of these polls can;t be wrong”. I said, “They are not all wrong... Rasmussen... the most accurate over the last 4 elections... does not show what these other media polls show... the difference... the bias to dim voters". I do not think that they heard me... they went on praising obama like they did in 2007.

A new meme is that not reelecting Obama is racist.

So, "Once you vote black, you can never go back." is not a racist statement?

Just like the liberal media, polling firms are not concerned about credibility.

What they both seek is relevance, and the pollsters get that only by helping the media distort the reality that America is extremely angry with Barack Obama, and will summarily give him the hook in November.

The polls completely missed the 2010 mid-terms, in hundreds of races. They missed the Wisconsin recall by 6 to 8 points, yet the liberal media asks us to believe them.

Polls have value only to the extent that they help bolster the liberal media’s goal here, to prevent the exposure of the absolute meltdown liberalism and the Democratic Party is currently experiencing.

This election would be a great time to sink the polling organizations, so discrediting them that it would take them years to recover. Surely inventive conservatives will think of their own ways of doing this when they are contacted by polling businesses.

Maybe these outrageous numbers will make some dumbocrats stay home because he already “won” the election. Just the opposite of what the pollsters want. Ah, poetic justice.

I think Romney will win but not by as much as he should given Obama’s awful record. Obama has been a rank failure at everything he’s tried except for being the president when Bin-Laden got killed. And he’s trying to milk that one to death. One or two millions votes.

Yes, I just cannot see how anyone that goes to the store or the gas pump is still drooling for the re-election of Obama. The man has been and will continue to be a disaster for this country, in many different facets.

We have polls showing Romney ahead among middle class voters by 15%, they show him with an 11% lead among independents yet these same pollsters expect us to believe that he trails odumbo overall? The audacity of Propoganda!

Their little tricks with the poll numbers will bite them in the butt.

Their own constituents are so lazy and ignorant that they will see the phony polls and not bother to show up on election day....

The article says the following at the end:

“Committed anti-Obama voters will show up to cast their ballots no matter what, but this is not the case with smug, self-satisfied Obama supporters who have been told they cannot lose.”

This is an interesting point. GOP voters are usually more dedicated to voting, so I think there’s some truth in this observation. However, I don’t think it will be an issue. Unless something happens to really change the race in Obama’s favor, polls around election time will either show a close race or Romney ahead.
