OMG... Gallup oversampled Dems by TEN PERCENT in this poll? Are you kidding? Why!

I'm not kidding.

With regards to "Why?"... I'm sure we all could come up with many, many reasons why the polls are the way they are this election cycle. Instead of doing that, let's just go out and vote! In the process, we'll elect McCain and Palin as well as ensure an increased rate of death for the mainstream media and their polls!

I truly believe the media’s goal is to suppress voters on our side too. I hope Rush, Sean, and everyone else on talk radio hammer home the point that this is designed to make us discouraged,

When Daily Kos own poll is closer to reality that Gallup, that says it all. If Obama was a landslide winner, he'd be traveling outside battleground states to assist Democratic congressional and senate candidates. He'd be campaigning in TX and AZ. He hasn't done that. I trust Daily Kos own poll now more than I do Gallup's final poll.

If this causes BO voters to stay home because they think it’s in the bag then I say FINE - good job, pollsters.

Otherwise, get lost.

I'm with you neighbor (VA - Leesburg) - I'm so ready to get this over with... Let's just do it and steady ourselves for whatever the outcome is. We either get to walk the MSM to the cliff they will be jumping off of, or we will need to come back together and help each other get through this as the true Patriots we really are. There will be fight and we have the spirit that they lack - we will win eventually. God Bless America!!!!!!

This poll has 38% dems and 26% Republicans. Gallup is stupid to assume the Dems will have a 12 point turnout advantage. It will be closer to 4%.

Stop falling for Propaganda .
Gallup has three version of its polls .
Gallup will not reveal its internal data .
Its called propaganda.
The Colorado early returns are a dead heat and the Fl has McCain ahead.

What if its dead even? George Gallup's company has moved into barking moonbat territory. Even the Kossacks are not that dense!

In order to help calm Freepers, I’ll post this again...

Gallup finally mentioned their party affiliation numbers in the article associated with their final poll. Here are those numbers:

Democrat - 39%
Independent - 31%
Republican - 29%

Here are the numbers from exit polling in the 2004 election:

Democrat - 37%
Republican - 37%
Independent - 26%

Here are the numbers from exit polling in the 2006 election:

Democrat - 38%
Republican - 36%
Independent - 26%

Do they really believe that the gap has gone from 0 in 2004 to +2 for the Democrats in 2006 to +10 for the Democrats in 2008?

“Psy ops yes, but it can backfire by causing complacency among bambiphiles, especially the young who would rather party than vote. I know a lot of pubbies who have taken the bait and believe bambi will win, however, all of them are going to vote anyway. I don’t think the psyops is going to work at all in favor of bambi.”

Psy ops indeed! Backfire indeed! Plenty of Blue supporters will be stoned by noon Tuesday or have a hot date at the bathhouse. Thus the early voting push by Adolph.

I haven't taken the polls seriously. We'll have to wait and see what the actual turnout numbers are. I don't think they will be anywhere near what the MSM's pollsters assume.

As we all know, Hillary won the NH primary. Gallup is doing the same thing here in its last poll.

We Freepers seldom agree with the Kossacks on anything. Gallup is worthless! :)

Read Wizbang analysis.
Gallup has crashed and burned Today.

We should demand a BAN on all POLLING 30 days before an election after this SCAM run by the OBama and its agents like Gallup and Ras and ARG and PEW and the rest of the Obama media which showed its true Obama -DNC AGENDA this YEAR !
The rest of the world BANS polling so why are we allowing this PUSH polling scam to continue !

More importantly, no one in New hampshire obviously paid any attention to the propaganda. As you recall, the ENTIRE media was on death watch for Clinton- didn't happen.

Only God knows who wins Tuesday, but I'm certainly not going let Pravda polls make me think that McCain/Plain aren't going to win.

Incidentally, for those on this thread who haven't look at the board, USA Survey has Minnesota within MOE- BO +2
