The Washington press corp, the Sunday "news" show need something scintillating to report. Fla Dem Sep 2015 #32

It's not a close race with Biden in the polls. NCTraveler Sep 2015 #46

Too bad this poll is deemed invalid Pope Sweet Jesus Sep 2015 #18

Which of the recent polls do you like better? DemocratSinceBirth Sep 2015 #21

No-one under 50 was polled. Betty Karlson Sep 2015 #20

Nobody under 50 will vote corkhead Sep 2015 #24

That was very cynical - but also very funny. Betty Karlson Sep 2015 #38

<50s left out of results. But I'm sure that didn't skew the poll at all... magical thyme Sep 2015 #22

thanks for the link. riversedge Sep 2015 #27

You are welcome. This is really foolish. This poll just confirms the other recent polls. DemocratSinceBirth Sep 2015 #29

I like them equally. The trend of each candidate is quite visible. magical thyme Sep 2015 #28

I meant to include this one. DemocratSinceBirth Sep 2015 #31

I don't like or not like any poll. 99Forever Sep 2015 #69

If I link to Sanders supporters touting the validity of online polling,.... NCTraveler Sep 2015 #50

Yes. 99Forever Sep 2015 #71

Timing couldn't have been any better. Same verbiage please. NCTraveler Sep 2015 #72

Do not care. 99Forever Sep 2015 #73

So that yes didn't actually mean yes. Love it. Thanks. nt. NCTraveler Sep 2015 #75

I get the feel-good value of trotting out polls that support what we want to hear and all, but..... DFW Sep 2015 #39

Well said but.. DCBob Sep 2015 #44

I can't argue with that DFW Sep 2015 #84

If Howard decided to run I would have fully supported him. DCBob Sep 2015 #85

I think Howard's support is more nuanced than that, although I haven't tried to drag it out of him DFW Sep 2015 #86

HA! I wouldn't want meteorites to fall simultaneously on Hillary, Bernie and O'Malley.. but.. DCBob Sep 2015 #87

Don't we wish! DFW Sep 2015 #89

This poll is debunked in Ichingcarpenter's thread demwing Sep 2015 #48

That debunking was debunked. DCBob Sep 2015 #51

The poll's findings are also confirmed by the findings of other pollsters in the field. DemocratSinceBirth Sep 2015 #52

Yep.. looking more and more like this bump up for Hillary is real. DCBob Sep 2015 #60

Where? Can you link to the post where it was debunked please? AgingAmerican Sep 2015 #61

All over the place.. just read the downstream posts in Ichingcarpenter OP. DCBob Sep 2015 #63

I did read them AgingAmerican Sep 2015 #65

Do you actually believe any pollster would conduct a poll leaving out half the population?? DCBob Sep 2015 #66
