many many here said the polls were all lies and anyone who thought otherwise was a traitor and defeatist coward troll etc

it went on and on...day in day out

they know who they were..

i never thought we were ahead except after Palin nod but I never thought we were down 7.....maybe 3-4...hence winnable if we had a big turnout which we did not have

folks lied on and on about how 2000 and 2004 were just like this when in fact they were not and shazaam...they too were fairly accurate

turns out the MAs were very accurate

what killed me though was how the same folks who said polls were lies would then take a pro-McCain poll as solid gospel

lol

many of the 2004 polls were off and we clearly meant to drive opinion. Even the exit polls the day of had Kerry winning. This year polls were all over again, and I think there was some hope that they were wrong. I was hopeful it was close until I saw this TIPP poll shoot in the wrong direction the last 5 days. I had optimistically hoped that their small margin and the large # of undecideds gave us a chance. The last weekend they went from 2-3 points to 5 or more and I realized we were in trouble.
