Even the Fox Poll can't be relied upon to give you a reliable poll. Democrats outpolled 42% to 36%. Obama scores better than Romney across the board. even has stronger moral values and understands American history better than Romney. Dick Morris was on O'Reilly tonight and O'Reilly asked him what he thought about Rasmussen having Romney down only one and Fox having him down 6 (it is 5). O'Reilly then said "do you still think Romney is going to win this thing". Morris said "yes and he's gonna win it big". PS: Fox News should go ahead and merge with CNN or MSNBC. This poll was conducted by liberals for democrats consumption.

Did Morris point out any flaws in the Fox poll?

The Fox poll had Kerry beating Bush by 5% on election day 2004. No doubt BOR believed that poll too.

FOX has joined the others in their efforts to do whatever it takes to get the Kenyan reelected.

What is going on with Fox News polls? Why are they oversampling democrats? Have they gone liberal or are they producing disinformation to lull the Obama campaign into complacency and overconfidence? Any ideas?

No specifically as he hadn’t had a chance to look at it. But he did make the point that all these pollsters are using 2008 model and are oversampling Dems and under sampling Republicans. If you look at poll, that is what Fox did.

Let Obama think he is winning. Hopefully he will keep doing to America what he has been doing since January of 2009. The poll that matters will happen in November.

Has the Kenyan ever been behind Romney in a FOX “poll”? I really don’t think he has.

I’m not trying to annoy you, but I did a web search recently on Fox News polls from the Bush/Kerry election and their poll just a few days before the election had Bush leading by about 2.5 points, if I recall correctly. I was looking into the change in Fox News polls and how they seem to be slanting their polls now in favor of Zero. If you search for those polls from 2004 on Google I think you’ll find the same poll results that I found.

Poll samples registered voters, not likely voters.

Any poll of registered voters shows Dems up by five or so more than they should be.

A “registered voter” poll is quicker, cheaper and Demmier.

BOR is not famous for his critical thinking skills. Come to think of it, I’m not sure why he is famous at all.

A few—BOR never lets him get too wonkish. He said that the older (meaning pre ‘08 results) 11% “standby” of how blacks, Latinos, youth would vote was being replaced by a 13% standby (based on ‘08 results), and that that assumption was flat-out false because that many minority voters could not be relied on to vote again for Obama this go-around. The “standby” (I think) I’m talking about is what pollsters substitute for pollees they can’t reach, a condition far more extensive now than in previous years, thanks to caller-ID, etc. It’s not just an oversampling of rats; it’s the metrics they use to calculate what the response SHOULD be if folks were actually responding to the pollsters.

He’s the Paris Hilton of old blowhards, famous for being famous. He’d have been a regular on Hollywood Squares, back in the day.

Considering Obama’s performance over two days, if the USA wants to reelect BHO we are deserving of the consequences, every last one of us..

Those that knew better who failed to convince those that didn't know better will suffer the most.
