4. And as far as that AP Poll with Obama only up 8, that's just right-wing crap.

7. Wait wait! What about McCain's INTERNALS????
:sarcasm:

We really should put a block on the word "internals" until people here figure out that "internal polls" are not some magical device that can get to the "real truth" while those silly public polls say something else entirely. The deficit of science education is really apparent when we have posters saying "McCain's internals must say something else!!!" As if well-grounded statistical methodologies disappear because a poll is commissioned by the campaign and not made public. This is the equivalent of grits that take five minutes to cook because they're on YOUR stove, to invoke My Cousin Vinny.

When you get this kind of consistency across the board, any poll that shows something else IS the methodologically suspect device, not the one we should pay attention to. Unfortunately, the American people, including many here on these boards, have been trained to think that the SECRET equals the TRUE, and that those in power know more than we do. For this reason, they inflate so-called "internal polls" to the level of God's Own True Word, a mysterious entity with the power to unlock the TRUTH of the electorate, the4n set about "interpreting" the campaign behavior on the basis of this flawed assumption. It's so much nonsense.

The McCain campaign is a disaster, not a collection of masterminds.

The only difference between internal and public polls is that the former are secret, so you can make up whatever bullshit you want about them.
