The bogus exit poll is turning out to be the October Surprise. There is some schmo on CSPAN right now who works for the exit poll company lecturing on how accurate and worthy exit polls are. The whole thing stinks and looks coordinated.

The good news, in my opinion, is that most people have already voted early this AM (before getting false exit polls). Then there are some of the ones after work who'll vote and I doubt they may be up-to-date like we are currently. All in all I'm thinking a little to no effect of this ploy.

"The bogus exit poll is turning out to be the October Surprise."

You are an excellent detective! This is precisely the case.

Blame Drudge. He posted without any context.

Kind of reminds me of Rita Cosby reporting the SCOTUS verdict on election 2000.

The MSM should just be disbanded. There has to be a category readjustment. They are not reporters, they are not objective, they are partisan and they are not honest in their agenda in every newscast.

Only one eg, today. In an ABC radio national newscat on the hour, you know the stock thing they do to report that the candidates have cast their own ballots, that Ann Comper or what ever the hell her name is, told of Mr and Mrs. Bush casting their ballots in Texas, and then gratuitously added, But there was no joy in their hearts and they seemed drawn, etc..... just nonesense mindreading stuff that tells more about the "reporter" than the reported upon. >>....

Then again, another male reporter on another newscast the male "reporter" in a similar Bush voting context report, went off into another mindreading of Bush. It is all so disgraceful adn stupid. So petty and small, and ultimately unimportant, BUT they keep doing it and they do it for some reason trying to have their effect and there must be a belief that they can kill by a thousand million arrows.

News should not be like this.

We have to think of a way to name and then dismantle this enemy in our midst.

Don't know if this has already been mentioned, but I hear that KOS and Wonkette were behind this exit poll rumor. True?
