Polls aren’t as big a farce as people wish they were. Taken individually sure they can often be in error, but given the way the polls have been flying for the last 13 months, and given the consistency of the picture they’re painting down at the bottom end, they add up to fairly solid information on exactly who cannot win the election.

Unfortunately too many people approach their candidates like they do a sports team and think lying to themselves is a show of loyalty.

Do you mean like the rock solid polls that declared Thomas Dewey the winner over Harry Truman in the 1948 elections to the point of publishing it in the newspaper the day after the election? How about those always dependable exit polls that declared Al Gore the victor over Bush in the 2000 election? LOL!!!!
