Talk show host Michael Medved has a theory, backed by historical statistics, that an incumbent president has to get a greater percentage of the vote in his re-election bid than he did in his previous election in order to win another term. (He can't win unless he gains new adherents.) It's quite obvious that Obama has lost at least some public support from 2008, what with the continuing recession and his pro-Islamic foreign policy, not to mention a slew of other issues. And nothing seems to have changed in the 'rats favor since the spanking they got in the congressional elections in '10. Does anyone know anyone who did not support Zero in '08 and is voting for him this year? Such folks are extremely rare, vastly outnumbered by '08 Obama voters who are disillusioned with him and are either switching to the GOP or staying home this time around.

The main problem with the Slimes' numbers is that they are based on turnout models comparable to '08, when registered 'Rats enjoyed a 7-point advantage in turnout. But Republicans are much more energized than 'rats this time around, so those models are grossly skewed so that the results falsely spit out an Obama edge and a better than realistic likelihood of his winning. The reason for the unrealistic models and skewed polling results is to try to demoralize us. The left media - of which the New York Slined is a key component - is acting in concert to do just that, possibly on orders from their pals at the White House. Don't fall for the deliberately phony statistical tricks employed by the lefty pollsters! See unskewedpolls.com for a more objective assessment.

That's the whole thing right there-and the left and their media arm know it too-these skewed polls are their attempt to de-energize Republicans and fed-up independents. How in the world would Hussein have more support now, after what's happened to the economy under him, than he did when all he had to do was spout "hype and change" to the clueless voters, and he was a blank slate to the uninformed?

Why are they letting Iowa vote so early? Is that illegal and a way to cheat voting.

They are skewing the numbers to discourage republican voters and get them to stay home.
