PEW is a bullsh*t poll if there ever was one. And there are.

A 9% swing in less than a week. What a joke this polling outfit is. People don’t change their minds like that. They also project undecideds to break evenly. Right.

Zogby and Pew don't deserve my attention any more.

Rasmussen, although I think he oversamples Dems, has been holding much more steady.

I’ve attended more than a few dinners at my mother-in-law’s place with two bigshots from Pew. The hatred of everything conservative and Republican oozing from those two is amazing. Pew makes the NYT look unbased and fair.

Too much movement in that poll to give it any credibility.

I know it’s a gap, but nevertheless, I said two weeks ago that late last week ALL of these pollsters would have to get their numbers in line for the final. Evidently, Gallup decided to believer their own crap, but when PEW moves this fast this far, it tells us something is afoot.

Yeah, McCain “gained” 9 points in one week! Whatever Senor Pew!

a) McCain was never behind
b) Pew should just buy a condo in Libya and retire there

These little pissants at PEW never cease to amaze. Still trying to dissuade conservatives from voting, yet throwing us a “bone” by shifting the numbers in order to make themselves look more credible.

The only reason these guys stay in business is people’s short attention spans and memory loss. And because it gives Dem a—holes something to be happy about. False hopes-but they’ll take it.

HAHA

They got their 20% margin just in time to skew “poll of poll” averages. Pew is useless

Ignore the Polls

Pray and Work for it!

Here are the “internals” for party affiliation:

Democrat - 38%
Independent - 28%
Republican - 28%

If Republicans turn out in numbers similar to the 2004 and 2006 elections (same or about 2% less than Democrats), this election is very, very close!

Based on what I’ve been seeing, I fully expect Republicans to turn out in massive numbers.

Tuesday should be interesting!

Mac must be winning if even Pew, with their nonsensical methodology, has him within six.

“More significant, the race is about even among voters who plan to vote on Election Day: 46% support McCain while 45% favor Obama.”

everyone knows that Obama is the hip canidate, I do not believe these people are undecided I beleive they will break big to McCain they jut do not want to say they are for McCain, and that is not the bradley effect, if the bradley effect is also a factor some of those that say they are for obama are really not, I have read elsewhere (which may or may not be a rumor) that more than half, I think it was 80%, of the people contacted to be polled did not want to be polled that could also be skewing the numbers for obama because I believe that mccain supporters would be less likely to participate in a poll by the MSM, IMHO

Nothing has changed other than the Rs they counted in the poll.
