Wrong for this writer to say Obama “expands” lead, when his lead stayed the same overnight in the poll she cites. Also, I’ll bet we will hear crickets chirp when this same poll shows a sharp falloff for Obama tomorrow. As I posted on another thread, and others have noted, Obama had a huge day in Gallup’s Wednesday sample (maybe 54-36), a good day in the Thursday sample (maybe 48-42), and something close to a dead heat (I guess 45-45) in yesterday’s sample. Unless O has another huge day in today’s sample, his three-day average is going to go down tomorrow, perhaps sharply. The poster who called it a “Clinton bump” looks to have it right.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any idea of when he's going to give that big speech?? I've been scanning the media but can't find any references.
Unreal!!! Talk about contradictory.
Obama is the most inexperienced presidential candidate of our time.
McCain’s experience spans decades in the military and decades in the Senate.
How can the dems worry about Palin’s resume? It only points out that their candidate has extremely limited credentials.
BS. McCain was -6 pre-Palin, and is now +2 (Zogby up thread). Bigger bounce than The One got out of his whole convention...
There’s been some delay. They built this huge Greek-style temple and were going to sacrifice a virgin before Obama’s big speech, and they put Bill Clinton in charge of the selection process.
Bingo
She was a gutsy brave pick by McCain and they are terrified that the American voters will love her, especially women voters.
McPalin should have bigger font.
I was just wondering that on another thread. What's up with Fox? When you've got polls with such a wide variety of results, why report on just one?
Is it me or does it seem that Fox now has at least one toe now in the Obama (aka The Dope) tank? Other than Sean Hannity, they seem to be bending over backwards to prove to the world that they don’t lean to the right, especially when it comes to “The Dope”. CNN and PMSNBC both showed pretty much the entire McCain-Palin rally today from Washington,PA. Switching back and forth, I did not see one second of it on Fox.
Notice how none of the MSM outlets are mentioning this. Their numbers mean little. No one will pay attention to these polls.They are just propaganda organs for the most part, which are designed to measure MSM effectiveness in their propaganda efforts. Its a closed loop of intelligence, measuring propaganda, not measuring opinion. That is why the polls have been unable to predict election results in the last 2 federal elections.
The polls measure what was said , not what people did or believed. They are like self servbng advertising surveys of ad effectiveness, they justify the use of TV time and the cost of it.
We ought to aim for 40 years running the White House. Kind of like the Rats in the House, just without the daily ice bucket deliveries.
They can load up my yard with signs....I live 5 doors from the polling station!
LOL, sounds like Baghdad Bob at his best.
Thats not a very good bumper sticker. The liberals would probably think you were supporting Obama and putting down McCain Palin because the letters are smaller.
If they can read it. If not, they just see the toilet bowl and think you are supporting Obama.
