So would you still believe it if it said Trump was 5 points down or are you believing it because the numbers suit you?
Yes, many FReepers (including me) are predisposed to believing the more optimistic polls - but not BECAUSE they are optimistic - it is because we have good reason to believe they are right, and the pessimistic polls are wrong.
If a few of the pollsters are smart enough to see what we see coming - a Trump victory - then of course we will put more stock in what those pollsters have to say.
They are the only ones with their heads not up their asses.
I believe Trump is going to win but no polls have anything to do with it. I find it impossible to believe that someone who draws in people by the thousands day in and day out could lose to someone who can’t fill a Bingo hall and even the former President can’t drum up any enthusiasm for him. I base my experience on a man who spent 400 million dollars and couldn’t buy 1 percent of the voters. It’s tough to win when you can’t even inspire anyone to cheat for you. That’s my poll.
