I am not worried. I may be on a suicide watch Wednesday morning, but right now I laugh at this poll.
We know that Gallup does not use party weighting, which is why they are so far off. Rick Davis told Chris Wallace this morning that the difference between Democrats and Republicans in this poll is in “the teens.” This is complete BS.

I think it is more like 12.5%....
Columbus OH news: Palin in Ohio today, a crowd of 3500
Obama in Ohio today, a crowd of 65,000
They’ll eat these numbers.
What the pollsters aren’t counting on is racist Democrats.
Doesn’t anyone remember the whites voting Hillary in legions?
Just you wait. All those “undecideds” are racist Democrats unwilling to vote for a black guy.
This is BS. VOTE!!!!!!
Even if Obama wins, I sincerely doubt he will do so by 11 points. If this is their official prediction, they are about to be embarrassed.
Gallup lost it`s good name shortly after George Gallup sold the company.
Gallup is done
55% of the vote???
Have they no shame?
Oh really? How does Rick Davis know that the difference between Dems and Repubs in Gallup is in the teens?
And why is this different than four years ago?
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
What utter crap.
HedgeHogReport.com rips this poll apart magnificently.
DJ Drummond at Wizbang breaks these up amazingly well too as does http://strata-sphere.com/blog/.
If this is accurate, then how in the WORLD would McCain be up in Ohio according to Mason-Dixon?
Some of these pollsters are going to have egg on their faces. I can’t wait. I am so damn ready to vote, and I know many republicans here in Virginia are fired up and ready to bombarde the polls!
The only democrat that has gone over 50% since 1964 is Jimmy Carter at 50.1%. No way Gallup can be believed.
If anybody had any doubt about Gallup being in the tank for Obama and wanting to create an outcome, then I think it is removed with this poll. There is not much doubt in my mind that this got put out tonight to be used throughout the day tomorrow to discourage our side, so don’t give into this. They are basically predicting an 8% advantage to the Democrats on election day in their writeup, no way.
I did a search to see “how accurate are Gallop polls?”. . .
The results for my question state they are pretty accurate??
I sure hope they are wrong on their current numbers.
Get out and vote: McCain/Palin
