Hillary will not debate unless the moderators give her the questions in advance. And they will. Trump should come with his own set of questions for her, and when it becomes obvious that she’s cheated, he ought to ask her his questions. If she refuses, he can use that as another example of the “rigged system.”
“Another daily tracker showing a great trend for Trump.”
Yes it is.
You got it right. Watch the trend. If Trump makes it even or close he’s really ahead. Always remember liberals do the polling who are truth challenged.
“The MSM ‘polls’ will stubbornly refuse to show a Trump surge using every trick in their bag to maintain the cankles ‘inevitability’.”
They will eventually have to have the dimoKKKRATS at 50% in their polling to keep her ahead.
Haha...yep!
We will eventually come to realize that Hillary is no Lady Thatcher, no Golda Meier.
Thursday Ras had it a 41-39 Cankles lead. I bet it’s tied now.
Well there's nothing "inevitable" about these polling numbers. I know they are juicing the polls for Crooked Hillary but if a dead heat is the best they can muster, things must be looking bad indeed for Crusty Pant Suit.
P.S. There's no way Johnson is drawing 8 per cent of the vote. Most of these votes are Trump votes in hiding.
That is correct. People tend to remember the one-liners. Dan Quayle bested Lloyd Bentsen in the 1988 VP debate but all people ever remember from that debate was "You're no John Kennedy."
Carly Fiorina also did some damage with her one liner against Donald Trump in one of the primary debates. It was the only time I saw Donald at a loss of words. All he could sputter back was "I think you are a beautiful person" or something like that.
So yes, expect the poll-tested one liners to come fast and furious at Trump during the debates. It's all she's got as she has no substance.
I do expect Mr. Trump will come to these debates well-prepared and with a few one liners of his own.
How quaint!
It was a great move by Trump yesterday by visiting Louisiana. It also shows how Obama and Hillary are hypocrites for their Katrina criticism of Bush.
BTTT
She is up with women and women will answer pollsters.
They have pools of demographic “resources” who they can call upon to “freep” their polls, per their whims and fancy. They have had them since WAY before Reagan.
They use them to influence public opinion, via the “herd (heard it) mentality”. AKA: adult peer pressure, or zeitgeist creation... pass the “meme” please.
they can pick and choose their desired responses and demographic data, for example... a group that “claims” to be conservative, but that actually votes and chooses liberal... reliably... or a group that claims to be pro life, pro marriage, but votes the exact opposite...
if you have 2-3 hundred of various demographics, you can mix and match until you get the desired result...
you can even show a +10 for republicans (who are really for hillary died in the wool) and count on them to vote as “disenfranchised” conservatives... even though they are really liberal commies. THIS is the face of polling today.
A random sample of so called “likely voters” often means they have been pre-sampled, to supposedly determine the actual disposition of the “likely voter” and then they use that profile to include only republicans and independents, who they already KNOW will vote for hillary... and then they will claim that the sampling is unbiased.
This is the so-called “randomly selected pool of likely voters” or even “randomly selected pool of registered voters”... translation: “PRE SCREENED POOLS GENERATED FOR US TO SELECT FROM RANDOMLY.”
What they are reporting may be factual, based on the pool they chose “this time” to reflect the desired results... but they are not truthful fact findings, they are preassembled facts selected from a specific shelf off of a libary shelf labeled... the group that will give us the numbers we want... this time.
It’s clearly not news, when it is fabricated from pre-selected people...
more accurate would be an anonymous random sample of about 5-10 thousand people in each state... tabulated without regard to race, ethnicity, gender, income, education... etc.
that data is used to generate profiles that can be manipulated for presentation.
size of meetings and conventions, does not reflect on the number of voters that will turn out... rallies reflect the number of people MOBILE enough to get “there”, and inner city types, in some cities, do not even have a car, or a license to drive. They may not even be able to understand that Granny no longer has right to vote democrat because she has been dead for over a decade... that is so “unfair” to all her offspring to say “your granny is dead and has no more right to vote”...
Polls tell us more about the motives of the pollsters than it does about the ones ostensibly being polled.
I studied permutations and combinations in a statisics course 45 plus years ago... and that method, of randomness dart throwing, would be far more accurate than the current fraudulent practice of “normalizing” and “weighting” of response to achieve the desired national “zeitgeist” for presentation as the nation’s opinion representing US the people.
Random voters or nothing. Every other question is leverage to move the ball to the will of the pollster... and the pollsters are paid by the campaigns... And right now, hillary is flushing her money down the toilet, to feed us her crap sandwich... while she uses depends for her own personal excrement.
Thank you for that in depth response. So Hillary is not only paying for her crowds to show up, she’s paying these pollsters. I pray on November 8th that this nightmare will be over.
Sorry for this paraphrase: it is not what the voters reflect, it is whom the pollers interview that counts!
This sounds like the methodology that Long Room was using.
Maybe they switched servers. Longroom is gone now.
