you aren't very well informed about the discussions on FR running all the way back to a year and a half ago regarding these polls.

I pegged Romney as a loser early on and demonstrated why he would lose ~ looking at a single voting event.

I began to take notice of the fact the progay polls weren't being supported by public referenda. This particular situation is hardly new ~ the polls have always said the progay stuff would win, then on the day the votes are counted they lose.

Maryland had the gaypolls saying gayness wins, and it won, but guess who counts the ballots.

Use your head ~ this is a Washington Post poll. It may well have originally said gays lose ~ but the Post has a reputation to keep up ~ so the poll will say what they say it means.

Get your argument into line with what PEW says and show something that tells me you know something about statistical sampling methods, even sigma 6 quality control sampling ~ something ~ you have no credentials that I know of. Thousands of Freepers know mine.

I don’t see it so much as a gain in support, as much as people just think it’s inevitable, and they might as well just get it over with.

However, the end result, will be a further emboldening of the radical gay agenda, as they continue their attack on “heteronormative” society.

You are still avoiding the fact that the polls in the 2012 election were extremely accurate. Whether you liked Romney or not is immaterial. The general election polling that showed Hussein winning the election were right. The polls that showed Republicans like Akin getting clobbered were correct. Conservatives that rejected those polls were wrong - and admitted to being wrong after the fact. You can go back to the RCP average for 2008 and 2004 and see that they too were incredibly accurate (within 1% of the final result).

Listen to yourself here. You're now saying when the polls are right, even that isn't enough for you because you don't believe the vote count. You're just throwing out a bunch of conspiracy nonsense.

What are you talking about? The Washington Post doesn't conduct the poll. They commission an actual polling firm, in this case Langer Research Associates, to do the work for them and ABC. LRA is not reversing results to please the WaPo.

Oh good grief, you sound like a fool. This Pew poll you keep citing specifically rejects the argument you are making. In fact, that Pew article referenced by PJ Media says the following:

A new study by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press finds that, despite declining response rates, telephone surveys that include landlines and cell phones and are weighted to match the demographic composition of the population continue to provide accurate data on most political, social and economic measures. This comports with the consistent record of accuracy achieved by major polls when it comes to estimating election outcomes, among other things.

You are just wrong about polling.
