Someone post this at Daily Kos I’m sure they’ll eat up.
Well, the methodology here seems more scientific than Zogby...
Oh noes!
Heaven is racist!

Lost me with the first sentence. No need to read any futher. Buh-bye.
I’ve casually followed “mundane astrology” for a while. The practice is not un-Biblical, until you start delving into the personal, at which point it veers into divination. Mundane astrology deals with world events, nations, wars, things of that nature. This Ira Rubin does correctly acknowledge that the vast majority of mundane astrologers are politically liberal, and would not want to say McCain appears to be our next president, according to their reading of the charts.
Exactly... I’d readily put more stock into these astrologer’s assessments than I would in our modern day pollsters .
If anyone here studies astrology , you will gain a great deal of insight into B.O.’s marriage dynamic . Have no doubts , Michelle wears the pants in that marriage . If B.O. wins , she will be directing much of the policy decisions ....
Be fun to watch their heads explode.
Not true. McCain has remained 3-4 points behind Obama for 3 straight days and the IBD/Tipp poll has remained in the 1-4 mark for the last 4 days.
Lets all give McCain some Reiki.
Chet...you’re making it hard...
LOLOL!
Oh Noz... My pic of Miss Cleo disappeared!
It must be magic.
I'd be willing to do that, if you will explain what it is.
Am I the only one who finds it amusing that the liberal astrologer in this article said his McCain prediction may be wrong since Obama’s birth information is questionable?
I didnt even read the crap.
I was having dinner a night ago with a friend of mine who is a statistician for a well-regarded private polling company.They do some work for Republicans in California, but most of the work they do is for Democrats or Democrat-leaning operations (Unions, etc.). Anyway, her shop was retained to do a few Presidential polls for targetted states on behalf of a union so the union could decide where to spend their ad dollars for the last week. They did Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada and Missouri.
After mocking the hell out of the voter id spreads used by Rassmussen, Zogby, etc. (and this is coming from a committed Dem who will be voting for Barry O) she said the results of their polling lead her to believe that McCain will definitely win FL, OH, NC, MO and NV.
She says Obama definitely wins New Mexico. She said that Colorado and New Hampshire were absolute dead heats. She said she thinks there is a 55% chance Obama holds on in Pennsylvania and a 75% chance McCain wins Virginia.
She absolutely laughed at the public polls showing Obama leading Virginia–and pointed out that all of those polls rely on Dem turnout being +4 and as much as +7, when in 2006, Republicans actually had the advantage by +3. She also pointed out that the numbers for Obama in SWVA look absolutely awful and that McCain is running 10 points better then Allen did in NoVa.
Anyway, her companies conclusion is that the election will come down to Colorado, New Hampshire and the Republican leaning district in Maine, which in her opinion might very well decide the Presidency (apparently the district in Nebraska that Obama thought he might be able to get is now off the table).She said she has very little doubt that the public polling is part of a “concerted voter suppression effort” by the MSM. She said IBD/TIPP was the only outfit doing public polling that was “worth a bucket of warm piss”.
Heck, even the astrologers can't tell who's going to win this thing, better just throw yarrow sticks with the I Ching, or do a Ouija board, and then we'll know for sure.....
