4. He really doesn't know how to read poll numbers
He has made these interpretive errors before (it's called margin of error; statistical tie!). His old man at least knew how to read a poll.

30. They byotch slapped him after his first appearance ...
His first time on the air was the Saturday before the Democratic National Convention.

He spoke about the youth vote, and as such, it was a report that favored BO, and he never even mentioned McCain.

Next day was exactly what you saw today - some bizarre rationale to spin "BO might be in trouble."

They got him after that first time on the air and told him what for, and he has been doing the BO negative spin since. He hasn't said one positive thing about BO since, and has been spinning positively for McCain every time.

9. he sounded like an idiot.
Edited on Wed Oct-29-08 12:56 PM by ErinBerin84
There's no problem playing devil's advocate, but he was going on and on about how this was the "fundamental issue", and that when young voters actually go into the voting booth, they may just vote on that CIC number. I call bullshit...the question is turnout, but it's stupid to think that the young voters who support Obama but give McCain a slightly higher score on the manufactured CIC question are going to all of the sudden vote for McCain. I was embarrassed for him...even Andrea looked slightly embarrassed for him.

22. Shit! Drunk or stoned, I can assess a statistical dead deat.
The math (within a 2 point margin of error reported) ain't that touch ... all people of average intellect have the technology. :dunce:

IMO, pampered rich boy devoid of intellectual curiosity. :thumbsdown:

20. That's what I wanted to know. How come when McCain polls w/i 2 pts in Florida, it's a tie...
But for Obama, it's "he's behind".

23. I heard him gush that young people who get to know about McCain love him bc McCain is so
AUTHENTIC! Authentic? With at least 76 flip flops in the last few years?

This kid is a much more blatant partisan than his father and a total pimp and travesty. We should start complaining about him steadily to NBC and MSNBC. I am sure his father left him enough money that he does not need this gig. Let him go to grad school and learn some journalistic ethics.

29. Luke is Nepotism and nothing more
His 'work' at NBC is an insult to the real talent pool, to the audience, and it should be a source of great shame to anyone who works for the old bird. The sight of him in that position makes me think less of everyone they have on air, have to wonder who and what they did to take that seat. Clearly it is not about merit. Which means none of them are there due to excellence, but due to other ties and promises. All of them.
