I really don’t believe that 0bomba is getting 98% of the black vote. I’ve heard too many black people speaking out against him.

The polls do not reflect a simple truth about this election. Barack Obama is still a huge question mark to a lot of people.

McCain can win this election.

For Obama to win, millions are going to have to make a leap of faith without any kind of a track record to convince them.

Read the Wizbang analyis of the state polling and what a joke it is .

The FR God Scottie Rasmussen is one of the worst pollers .
Gee I am shocked !

Here’s some good advice from Rush Limbaugh on the topic of polls (ignore them):

There was a post about a week ago of how the polls got the Carter/Reagan election all wrong. They were trying to say the polls were in a tie and Reagan won by a landslide.

Can anyone link me to that again? Please.

Follow the money.

The MSM is in cahoots with the polls, and the polls make money from the MSM during election cycles.

MSM= in the tank
Polls= cooked.

And speaking of following the money, I was having a discussion on another (football oriented) board about the rising costs of food, and how it can be traced back to the increased prices of fertilizer, ostensibly due to rising energy costs.

And when i was doing a quick search of one of the larger fertilizer companies in the US,(Archer Daniels Midland) i cam across this!

People lie to pollsters like people lie to themselves. People like to the pollsters because they are asked a question that starts with an absurd premise, a lie, as it were: “IF THE ELECTION WERE HELD TODAY?” Well Mr Pollster, dude, the election is not being held today.

The second forgotten aspect is that a good number of people hang up on pollsters. These hanger uppers are believed to be mostly, well, guess who, conservatives, and the hanger upper element is never factored into the so called “scientific formula” of the polls.

It has been rumoured, and believe me I am not trying to hijack the thread, that the scientists behind the science of polling are the same “scientists” who are behind the “science” of evolution.
