All these polls confuse me. I’ve seen polls showing white women’s support up tremendously, and men’s support for Palin up trememdously.

No poll is consistent. What poll is more trusting? Any of them?

I agree about the confusion. White women are up for McCain-Palin, and independents are really up for McCain-Palin, yet this isn't reflected in the polls released the last couple of days. Maybe the polls on white women and independents are wrong? I have no other explanation.

I personally like the way Rasmussen has done over the years but I think the only way to get a true picture, or as true as it can be is to look at as wide an assortment of polls as is available and attempt to get a general sense of what is happening.

None of these polls can account for the “Bradley Effect” which we will see on election day.

The poll the people take in NOV on Election Day!

None of the thousands of polls taken by the dozens of pollsters before then matter and are to be taken with a grain of salt!
