“Polls that go against us are trash polls. Polls on our side that show us winning are accurate polls and are praised. That is the norm here, but it is ok cuz it is still informative.”
Rasmussen’s polls are more accurate - and that’s a fact:
The relative polling accuracy of Rasmussen.

I love seeing that punk ass Palestinian propagandist John Zogby all the way down at #18. LOL....What a complete irrelevance he has become as a result of selling his soul to the Dems with his fraudulent push polls.
And Gallup, who I distrust greatly, is nearly as bad at #17 but the lamestream swears by them nonetheless.
When both are absolutely smoked by the kooks at the Daily Kos(but #7????...really???)it is clear that they really are nothing more than Dem shills who can’t even come up with a decent methodology or unbiased sampling data.
I really only like Ras.
“When both are absolutely smoked by the kooks at the Daily Kos(but #7????...really???)”
Good points. Well the kos kooks were really in 10th spot as there were several ties above them (and only in the general 2008 election call...) :)
Washingtonian Tea Partiers—are you going to be poll watchers? I so hope there is an organized group up there to man the polls. Priority #1 right now.
Thanks Palmetto Patriot. One point lead equals a tie, check.
