Don’t believe anything from them. Their strategy is to dishearten their opposition by making it seem they’re way in the lead. They did that in the primary.

I try not to... I just do it either to have a good laugh or to see how they are trying to spin things so I can predict what the media is going to do next

no, I know DU would, but this seems like its from a university and might have more legitimacy to it... its linked up to the official state sites too which makes it seem like they are not trying to hide anything... regardless, these numbers are scaring the crap out of me

These are only reporting large counties, i.e. counties containing Las Vegas (for NV), Chicago (for IL), etc. Republicans get their numbers from rural areas. This early chart is another attempt to demoralize Republicans and is garbage until it reflects the country as a whole — those numbers won’t be available until 11/4, probably late.

very late, people will still be in line when polls close and they have to let them vote, will be midnight before people are finished voting.

I hope they keep inflating the numbers, and call the whole shootin’ match for Obie before the polls close.

Our folks know better than to pay attention to the MSM, and will get to the polls anyway, while the DUmmies will slack off at home.

I don’t know why they don’t get the psychology of what they’re doing. They’re only going to cause their own to stay home. Our side ain’t takin no chances.

What difference does it make? It’s nothing you have any control over. Do what you’re going to do, and in a few days, we’ll all know what’s what.

Thank you. I knew there had to be some logical explaination for these nonsensical numbers. Should have figured it was just because the cities are always dark blue while the rest of the country is for the most part normal. Guess stress over the election is starting to get to me. I think Mccain will win but even just the fact 0 has gotten as far as he has is horrific...

The only state to be concerned with is FL, but those numbers do not reflect absentee ballots that have not been returned yet. Plus, Bush carried FL by 400k votes so there is some room to play with.

Yep. Our stealing the election will be because we lied to the pollsters, overinflating Obamugabe and forcing his supporters to relax and stay home.

There are DU trolls here that have been posting stuff like what you posted in order to discourage and dishearten us.

Your post is typical of the "drive-by" method they've been using. If it weren't for your forum history I would have thought you one of them.

Just saying.

LOL. No one does research on DU unless you are doing a thesis on mental patients.

Go back to troll school. You're too transparent.

So I went to go see what the DUmmies were up to... to give me an idea of McCain's place in polls.....

“Two more days and then the Trolls go back into Hibernation for 4 more years.”

if BHObama get’s elected, it is more likely that they will get paid to troll here until we all get so tired of it that we throw up our hands and give up. Kinda like “boiler room” tactics...;)

Troll school? I am not the one on Obama’s email list....

seriously; read my other posts. Only reason I ever go over there from time to time is to either laugh at them, cause some trouble, or see how the media will spin things tomorrow.
