ARG Poll has Montana & West Virgina competitive
Edited on Tue Sep-16-08 10:04 AM by Hawaii Hiker
Didn't Republican Rassmussen have Obama down double digits in Montana recently....ARG has it as McBush +2...

I never did trust Rasmussen, now the battleground polls he relases Mondays at 6:00 PM are in coordinated with Fox Noise....Yeah, that's 2 pollsters with no agenda, :sarcasm:

http://politicalwire.com/

"Political Wire got an advance look at several new state polls from American Research Group that show Sen. John McCain has just a 2-point lead in Montana and a 4-point lead in West Virginia.

Meanwhile, Sen. Barack Obama has a 7-point lead in New Mexico.

ARG will release the results of these and 24 other state polls tomorrow"...

1. I caught the Rasmussen dude on Hannity and Colmes last night.
He and Hannity were awfully chummy. I don't trust any of the polls.

2. Did all the racists in WVa suddenly move? Because that's the only way it's competitive.

3. ARG is the worst pollster out there.
Legendarily bad.

As in, picked Obama to finish third in Iowa bad.

5. The Iowa caucus wasn't a fair test
That was hard to predict for everyone. Still, yeah, ARG has often made us want to shout out "ARG!"

4. 7-pt lead sounds about right for NM, and why shouldn't Montana be competitive?
it has been up until the GOP convention, it could be a swing back. I'm a little dubious about the WVA poll, but then there are many poor people who live in that state and up until 2000 it was a dependably democratic state.
