In today's highly partisan political/social environment, do you actually believe that party affiliation fluctuates wildly?! Please!

ALL pollsters control for key demographic variables, Gallup included. The fact Gallup, et al, have decided to stop controlling for the one variable that actually subsumes all the rest speaks volumes!

They control for variables that can compared against the census, this cannot be done in the case of party ID, all we have to go from is flawed exit polls.

If the sample is truly random, the party ID question is nothing more than another question to examine how the political environment is shaped at this point in time.

Hey Deb,

How is pointing out Newsweek undersampling the GOP voter by 10% a MoveOn.org tactic?

How is using the Rasmussen approach to sampling the electorate wrong?

How is it that I am on freerepublic coming to the defense of the President in the face of a biased Newsweek poll and I am being compared to MoveOn.org?

The MSM lies and trys to make conservatives miserable with a deluge of propaganda that includes biased polls.

I refute it by exposing facts.

The only people who despise facts are liberals.

Yes I do.

Correct. But race, age and gender don't change overnight. Political affiliation can and does.
