I’m beginning to think so.

We’ll probably see another small peak for Obama after Commiefest ‘08, better known as the Democratic National Convention, but then it’s all downhill from there.

Gallup has not had credibility since George Gallup sold the business.
George Gallup was a pioneer in polling as well as a true Christian.

All the pollsters are frauds now IMHO

I thought Obambi was the next president?

Yet, among likely voters, McCain is up by four points. The media would have you believe that Obambi is up by 20 points and McCain can never catch him. This poll suggests that McCain us up by more than just four among likely voters.

The partisan media shill wrote “insignificantly ahead” because it’s McCain in the lead. Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.

Nice try, but not close to “You have a great personality”.

John McCain will be the next President of the United States.

You could make a lot of money by betting against the Obama suckers. ;-)

But a 4% lead for Obama is the beginning of a route.

“.. McCain insignificantly ahead”
This is classic ratspeak. Every cycle we need to remember what ratspeak is.
Here goes. If the rat is down by more than 5 points, he is down. If he is down by 5 or less he is “in the margin”.
If he is tied, he is up. If he is up 1 or 2 points he up. If he is up 3, he is pulling away and if he is up 4 he is in a “commanding position.” Never ever is the margin mentioned if the rat is up. Never ever is there any talk about polls “being only a snap shot.” Never ever in ratspeak is a disclaimer published with a poll result if the rat is up. That ONLY happens if the rat is up.
Ratspeak, don’t you love it?
