18. The truth is it is too close to call, maybe we will find out in the next
few days if that changes, but I doubt it

The odds are we will be going to the Convention undecided

Incidently, I am an Obama supporter, but realize that both size are hyping everything up to what the perceive is their advantage

21. No doubt. You can't expect them to be accurate.
But they sure are proud of themselves in the 1 out of 10 times they get it right.

I did, however, find that the exit polls reported by pollster.com were very accurate, except in states with large Latino votes. Basically spot on for the rest of them though.

16. A couple notes...
First, it's stupid for any side to say that one candidate has a ceiling or floor. Looking at the puke contest should make that very clear.

However - Second, what good is a poll when we've voted? It's pretty much void at this point, we know the outcome - we ended up splitting almost down the middle.

20. This only shows Gallup's desperation.
Back in 2004, Gallup kept polling more Republicans than Democrats and came up with results that obviously favored Republican interests. When they got caught, they claimed that they did it because more Republicans vote than Democrats which is a bunch of hooey.

Don't trust Gallup's numbers. Their wide margins only make it easier for the second tier of election theft to take place.

23. The point is that the Obama posters here today have been saying
that Clinton could not break the 48% ceiling. They were using a Gallup poll. They have been proven wrong and quite foolish with that assertion.

Then why is Obama doing so badly in this 'republican-biased' poll?
