Dear friends at Newsweek...
Just to clarify...
You have McCain winning Republicans, 89 to 7. You have Obama winning Democrats, 91 to 5. (I'm a bit skeptical, but for now, for the sake of argument, I'll accept your assertion that PUMAs are extinct.) You have McCain winning independents by 2 percent, 45 to 43.
And this adds up to an 11-percent Obama lead in your latest poll.
We are to believe that McCain is losing among women by 9 percent, but losing among men by 14 percent.
We are to believe that the Hillary voters are lining up behind Obama, 88 percent to 7 percent.
We are to believe Obama is winning 18 to 34-year-olds by 10 percent, but he is winning 45 to 64-year-olds by 16 percent.
We are to believe the white vote is just about even, 46 percent for Obama, 47 percent for McCain.
And we are to believe the electorate in November will be 27 percent Republican, 40 percent Democrat, and 30 percent Independent.
If the over/under on the partisan breakdown on Election Day is 13 percent, I'd take the under. I wonder if anybody in Vegas would take that wager...
I know he’s being cute, but I could never use Newsweek and “friends” in the same sentence.
Actually this holds true for alot of polls but lets not let a litle bias get in the way of the real outcome
Newsweek has never has a poll you can trust going back as far as I can remember (And that’s a long time)>
There is poll manipulation going on in the Liberal mainsteam media.
As soon as the economic crisis settles down McCain will rise.

Maybe the Newsweek pollster/editors would bet half of their own personal net worth on this poll?
The problem the pollsters are having is making sure their polls are representative of the Acorn activities. It is very difficult to weigh that factor in. ;0)
I’d be willing to make a $10 bet with one of them that Obama does not=Algore’s % among blacks in 2000. In fact, I bet he barely exceeds Kerry.
NewsWeak is a joke. This is total propaganda. Be prepapred folks because next week they may be claiming Obama is up 17 points or some other insanity. It is to depress our base.
I picked up their crappy mag at my CPA’s office a few months ago. It is paper thin with few ads and little content. The MSM thinks they can save their newspapers and mags by becoming total mouthpieces for Obama and his Islamist financial backers.
I have been saying this since he was anointed as the Candidate-—Barack Obama will NOT break 40% of the popular vote on election day. He will barely get more than Bill Clinton did to win the Presidency in a THREE man race.
Ain’t gonna happen/ I don’t even think it could happen with blatant voter/registration fraud.
Not just the media. I think a lot of people are so fed up with the pollster-media axis that a lot of people are lying to these pollsters. I am also guessing their hang-up rates are through the roof, especially among McCain supporters. Also, I am sure that a lot of Zero supporters are saying they’re Republicans for 0bama when they aren’t.

One more thing. If they really thought Obama was winning — they would not put out these lies. They would make it closer. This is to depress our base.
Volunteer, get out the vote.
If Obama breaks the generic dem candidate 43% on election day he should consider that a victory.
This poll is full of GLARING holes and is laughable, pure propaganda.
LISTEN, the only way to make the media pay for it's injustices is to hire private detectives to dig into the closets of the medias talking heads and owners. All legally, and turn the skeletons they find over to the legal authorities and if they don't do anything then shout it to the public! Detectives can only work in states where they are licensed so we would have to hire detectives from New York, and Illinois, and California, and D.C., where the networks have offices, and studios. So let's pool our money and send some to New York as a start to dig up dirt on the so called "journalists", like what they tried to do to Governor Sarah Palin. Sort of a "what is goods for the goose...." kind of thing.LET'S GO NOW, NO EXCUSES! NOW IS THE TIME! I heard somewhere ,that they are already investigating MSNBC talking heads! Good for them!
That will be there excuse when odumbo loses
Clinton got 43% of the vote. I expect Barry to get 45%.
