6. Here are some ramblings...
To: AmericaUnited
“...187% OBAMA VS -26% FOR MCCCAIN.”

Those are typical voting results in Philly.

The MSM and pollsters are not even trying to hide their blatant shilling for The Marxist this year. Well it’s a good thing. They will have zero credibility in the future, ZERO.

"Sen. Obama is no longer the candidate of the young, the well-educated and minorities. He is now virtually the candidate of the 'all.' He is winning among all age groups in all three states. He wins women by more than 20 points in Ohio and Pennsylvania and is competitive among men in all three states. Whether voters went to college or not, they are voting for him.
Why am I suddenly highly offended? LOL...?

Had it been Obama up 4 or 5 in Ohio we would have worried. Up 14 and....we laugh!
Agreed. The most reassuring polls to me at this point would be not those showing McCain up by 2 or 3 points nationally or in battleground states (within the MOE), but those showing Hussein up by 2, 3 or 4 points in MS, GA, AL, SC..etc

Funny. I live in Ohio and I just polled my neighbors and they are all voting for McCain. That would make Ohio 100% for McCain, right?

The problem here is that only us “far right” bloggers know the truth.

We’re not their target audience. The uninformed, “malleable” ones are - and they outnumber us, a bazillion to one.

THAT’s the issue, gang..there’s a constant BARRAGE of “it’s all over but the Coronation” being played on EVERY media outlet, 24x7 non-stop.

And the sheep are gullible and persuadable.

How many of them will be discouraged, give up, or just say “oh, the heck with it. I guess it’s ‘all over’”?

I wonder which part of Ohio he lives in? The Rich 100% OR the God, Guns & Gays 100% part?

Again, thanks for braving that site

9. Well, here's one example.
Edited on Thu Oct-23-08 08:51 AM by mwb970
This poll is a positive for McCain. Had it been Obama up 4 or 5 in Ohio we would have worried. Up 14 and....we laugh!

Speaking of laughing....

It doesn't seem to have occurred to "icwhatudo" that if this poll shows Obama at +14, he's still at +7 even if the poll had an improbably high error level of 7%! (Maybe it's time to worry.)

It reminds me of McCain saying how much he "enjoys being the underdog". Well, who wouldn't want to be 10+ points behind and slipping daily with less than 2 weeks to go? Talk about "sitting pretty"!

5. Only the outlier is correct, in their view.
Not the half-dozen other polls, all with the same different result. It's exactly the same as when they say that only Fox "News" is telling the truth, not the 99 other sources that are saying the opposite. Those sources are all from the "lying liberal drive-by media" or some such crap. How stupid can you get?

16. Remember Karl Rove?
"You can have your math, but I have the math." Right, Karl. Now please sit down.

I truly think it is time to formally classify right-wing extremism as a mental disorder, one characterized by psychosis, denial, and delusion. It should be in the DSM.

22. I'm talking about this AP poll.
AP poll puts Obama nearly tied with McCain

While most national polls continue to have Barack Obama holding a statistically significant lead over John McCain, one survey released yesterday showed McCain within one percentage point of his Democratic rival.

The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News and Pew Research Center polls out yesterday both put Obamaahead by double digits, but an Associated Press-GfK poll shows Obama with 44 percent support and McCain with 43 percent backing among likely voters.

8. Ah yes. Only that AP poll with shitty methodology and 13% undecided
is to be trusted--not every other polling outfit on earth. Nope.

If that's so, why didn't Brian Williams correct Sarah Palin's gross mis-characterization of Joe Biden's remarks?

17. They have been listening to Sean Hannity too much.
His constant rants are that the MSM is the liberal media and none of those polls are right.

20. You're talking about specimens
that were convinced - right up to election day - in 2006 they were going to GAIN seats in congress. Because Rove had "the" math. Pathetic desperation sure does smell bad.
