I’m just posting these polls because they are all so out of whack, Obama is paying for push polls like a madman. You get what you pay for, if you pay the pollster and tell them you want a certain result, they’ll get it, trust me.
They are seriously this cycle trying to influence the polls and peoples opinions, its total Obama bias.
Rasmussen is pretty solid... But I’m not buying this poll. I think McCain wins this state pretty comfortably. Bush won by 13 in both 00 and 04. A conservative Dem may make some inroads, but a far left (black nationalist) candidate ain’t going to flip it that much.
Oh, I agree with you! Just reporting from the trenches! It was kind of funny because when the pollster asked which candidate I would likely be voting for I answered, “I will not be voting for Obama”. He kind of sputtered around after that and started into the abortion question and I said, “I’m pro-LIFE and I don’t vote for anyone who isn’t”. That pretty much ended the call and I made sure that I found out who was doing the polling. They specifically asked for me by name when I answered the phone and I am a registered Republican. I think they are specifically targeting women and I am in my 40s.
The dems keep telling us that there’s no way to accurately do polling of young voters because they have cell phones.
Well, out of three of us living in this house, I’m the only one that exclusively uses the house phone. I’m also the only one that has answered a poll (during primaries). And I didn’t count on that poll as I was told they already had all the women they needed and would like to speak to a man.
Also my sons and DIL have all used nothing but cell phones for years - don’t even have a house phone installed
- all of us are registered Republicans.
I realize, being in Georgia, that none of us will be polled anyway, but I think with only one in seven of my immediate family using a house phone, it must be the same throughout the country and this has played havoc with the polls, and pollsters should adjust somehow.
