Is it real clear politics that averages all the polls? I’m more inclined to believe them.

I’m a little skeptical of all poll sampling. I don’t think you can have a fair poll if a random sample has a disproportionate amount of party affiliation...it’s possible to hit all dems in one poll as it is to keep flipping heads on a coin many times in a row.

Here is RCP’s poll.. The problem with this is, because it averages out national polls, Thompson is lower because he isn’t polled in all cases being non-declared.

Even with that, however, Thompson is a strong 3rd. Also, noticed the trend line for Thompson, he is shooting upward.

This was a Rassmusen poll. They had a thread yesterday on a Rassmusen poll that said Reps. are really flat earthers and neanderthalls because MOST (their conclusion) are creationists and are therefore unworthy to lead the nation.
