This poll on MSNBC explains to me why McCain always loses these after-debate polls. Notice how many people voted for Obama. But more importantly look how many people voted for MCCain compared to not voting for another choice. Explains it all to me. I hope it explains things for others as well.

It does explain one thing. There are a lot of Obama supporters who are liars. Anyone who believes over 4% would consider switching their votes to Obama after watching that Debate are crazy.

What I noticed is that many polls asked if tonight’s debate changed your mind. They did not want to ask who won, because it was obvious.

McCain: “Senator Obama, if you wanted to run against Bush, you should have done it four years ago....”
That’s the line they’ll play after McCain wins.... It’s just about as good as Ronald Reagan’s ‘... There you go again.’

You do realize online polls are worth the paper they're printed on, right?
I will still vote for John McCain
4,603 votes
I will still vote for Barack Obama
45,079 votes
I may change my vote to John McCain
1,335 votes
I may change my vote to Barack Obama
2,492 votes
Not sure
566 votes
Obviously, the poll has been exploited.

What’s obvious? What the original poster was trying to say? I beg to differ...

heh...sorry if I confused all of you. Here is what I mean. 44,000 plus people voted that they would still vote for Obama. 4,500 for McCain. However, the numbers for people who may change their vote to Barak Obama reflects the true demographic of these polls. There was no huge defection from McCain to Obama. Plain and simple Dems are better at trying to skew news website post-debate polls no matter how their candidate did in that debate. No independent voters are participating in these things.

I loved that line about running against Bush! Watching it again made me LOL the way he couldn't wait to get to it! the old moderator kept asking “could you balance the budget?” and McCain is saying “ya” “Sure”..but can't wait to get that line off.
Hilarious. This guy has a lot of life left in him. He'll prolly live to 100. HA!

<> Or perhaps it reflects the tiny corner of the market served by MSNBC. I can't stand to listen to the things they say so I ignore them (except I watch Morning Joe ocassionally). They are so obviously biased, it has to be taken with a grain of salt, but some people really dig it and my guess is it's the people who support Obama and don't really want to hear the truth about anything.

I guess my post here was meant more for people like my sister who cannot for the life of her understand why Obama always won the debate according to almost every news site. Polls like these are the things news sites use to declare a winner. CNN even says on it’s front page that Obama won. Sorry if I am over-analyzing. I just found it interesting so i’d though i’d share it.

It’s obvious that the poll was skewed . Is it a surprise to anyone here that PMSNBC would have a heavily skewed poll ?

Did you change your mind?
Can you tell who won by the results of this poll?
Who actually made the best points?
Did you get past third grade?
Do you think the media is unbiased?
Do you think there is any need for anyone to go past the third grade?
Would you vote if you knew you could deny it at a later date?
Did you take a date to third grade graduation?
Aren’t you glad this election is over?

Is it me or is the internet overrun with liberals. I can not believe the internet is representative of the population. I still believe most people have jobs and actually work at them rather then waste time with internet polls or forums.
