Voter affiliation not polling points to a Romney win in November
The Examiner ^ | August 26, 2012 | Josh Bernstein

All the polls show that the election of 2012 is very close. Most polls show Barack Obama and Mitt Romney tied. Others show slight leads within the margin of error for Barack Obama. Yet still others show a slight lead within the margin of error for Mitt Romney. One thing is for sure. This is the most important election in the history of the United States.

It seems that for the past ten years or so every election we have is a little more important then the last. Every election we hear the same thing. This election is the most important election in our lifetime. The truth is this election is the most important election of our lifetimes. The outcome may fundamentally change who we are as a people. It is often said that elections have consequences. This is an understatement. The results of 2008 have made a huge impact on all of our lives. We are a poorer and more destitute nation and have become much less relevant and competitive on the world stage.

There is no doubt that 2008 was a consequential election. It was also a monumental election and for many monumental reasons. For the first time in our nation’s history we elected a black president. America broke through the color barrier and showed that racism no longer lives in the majority of our hearts. But what the 2008 election could be remembered for is much darker and more sinister. The 2008 election could go down in history as the election that started the beginning of the end for America.

I believe the election of 2012 will finally put an end to the dark days of Barack Obama’s ineptitude and will open up a new chapter in America filled with promise and prosperity...

Tell your leftist friends (just the ones who still think Obama is a god) that November 7th has been reserved for Democrats to vote.

Great article. We, as Americans, have been awakened to the reality of socialism and BO has attempted to destroy our values, principles and wealth. This election will make or break us.

We, as “freepers”, knew the dangers of electing such a putz 4 years ago. I’m hopeful that enough “hope and change” zombies are on board.

If they are really tied or too close to call, why is Bozo not raking in the money, why are his rallys so small compared to Romney’s? Romney will win, period.

The 'independent' categorization is irrelevant in elections where you have two major parties. What you really need to know are the major factions with which voters are affiliated ~ without that information you really can't pin down the changes really happening.

Every now and then Karl Rove gives us a glimpse of just how detailed the so-called 'internal polls' can be so you'd have to follow his blather to keep up on that stuff.

As a rule of thumb in close contests, and ours are always close contests, it's party turnout that wins the race. Ideally Republicans want Republican voters to turn out in large numbers while Democrat voters stay home. Every winning campaign begins at least a year ahead of time seeking to find workers inside the party base who will make sure the party gets out the vote.

That is NOT the same as "voter enthusiasm". It's also something not easy to poll.

Polling ventures is like weather forcasters they’re not even in the ball park and when it’s all over they mold thier prediction to the end result.

I think the pollsters are fudging the numbers by polling select demographics and probably being paid handsomely to do so. Anyone with a shred of common sense can see that O is destroying this country and dividing it. Those with half a brain can see that he’s doing so intentionally.

Today’s polls show nothing more than a database report for a desired result. Liars figure and figures lie. I believe I heard that once in reference to statistics.

Pollsters are businessmen, not public servants. Somebody paid for that database report result. What businessman would deliver lemon juice to a customer who paid more than market price for apple juice?

Actually it's voter enthusiasm and the Democrats’ war on Catholics that points to a landslide loss for Obama.

-——showed that racism no longer lives in the majority of our hearts——

Conversely, racism and the fear of seeming racist prevailed to the point that a black man was elected with guilt providing the margin

Whenever I spend time with my young adult children’s friends, such as at my granddaughter’s birthday party yesterday, I get very depressed. They are such pseudo-intellectual idiots, but they think they have all the answers, i.e., having everyone in the world hold hands and singing kumbaya to make all of our problems magically go away. It makes me weep for the future of America, but then I remember that none of them actually take the time to vote, for which I am relieved.

PASS THE WORD--THE MORE VOTERS KNOW,
THE HARDER FOR TEAM OHAHA TO PULL OFF VOTER FRAUD

2012 Team Ohaha is using the 2008 Anita (Mao) Dunn strategy to manipulate voters, to downplay Ohaha's destructive policies ....and his scary plans for the next term. Dunn said later, THEY, and only THEY, decided what the media should know about 2008 candidate Ohaha.

The 2012 Ohaha campaign keeps fudging its campaign income and outgo reports---as a way to build "deniability" in order to fool the voters.

Ohaha has tons of money secreted all over the place....and he grabbed control of the census---that means he's got all the CV he needs to falsify FEC reports. There are people "donating" to Ohaha that have no idea they are financing his reelection.

====================================================

2012 TEAM OHAHA PLANNING MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD

Remember, voter fraud is the Chi/mobs' specialty---do NOT underestimate Rahm and Axelrod (both running O's reelection), and Valerie whatsherface in the WH.

Let us not forget----the minute they hit the WH, the Chi/mob went into action: the WH Chi/mob took over the census---and now have all the CV they need to file phony FEC reports using stolen federal dollars falsified as campaign contributions.

Do not underestimate the wealth of cash the Ohahas/Chi-mob can come up with to rig the election......remember, these are the kingpins of corrupt Chicago politics. At one time, conscientious FEC investigators verified money was coming from legal citizens....but if Obama wins there will be no investigations.

There are billions unaccounted for in Obama's "stimulus" packages (some used in the last election cycle).....the Ohaha kingpins have tons of money stashed away for 2012.

==================================================

POINTS TO PONDER

<><> author Dean Koontz estimates there's about $90 billion missing from the US Treasury.

<><> Ohaha's ex-COS Chi/Mayor Rahm Emanuel is running the reelection campaign---this Wall Street turd knows where all the money is hidden. Rahm also controlled all US Treasury assets (at Obama's behest) when he was COS.

=======================================

WATCH FOR PHONY FEC REPORTS from "Obama for America" and two other DNC-joint fundraising committees — the "Obama Victory Fund" and the "Swing State Victory Fund,"......and whatever other voter frauds they dream up.

============================================

Obama's 2012 reelection motto: "Don't worry--we're harmless"

"Religion is the opiate of the masses."

Astute observers believe Lenin's use of the phrase led to burying
his political ambitions. Lenin---and Obama--- "forgot" there are
millions of believers that will not tolerate political leaders belittling
and marginalizing their sacrosanct beliefs.

I have been following the threads on voter affiliation/registration for some time. The trend seems clear: Voters leave the Dems and re-register as Independents. They do not re-register as GOP. So we are seeing people who normally vote D being added to the size of the Independent group.

Despite the obvious conclusion that these new Independent types are less than fully satisfied with the Obama record, the fact remains that they are really DEMOCRATS AT HEART.

Concluding that these new “independent” voters will move 75%/25% to Romney in this election seems optimistic to me. I’m hopeful but certainly not confident. And remember that some people leave the Dems because they are not far enough to the left. Think about how they will vote in November.

“I think the pollsters are fudging the numbers by polling select demographics and probably being paid handsomely to do so. Anyone with a shred of common sense can see that O is destroying this country and dividing it. Those with half a brain can see that he’s doing so intentionally.”

Remember, pollsters are in business to make money. There’s no money to be made if they show the race as a runaway for Romney. They are, in the main, just another section of the “Media Whores” Group. They all have a vested interest in keeping it close. But at the same time, the campaigns run internal polls that tell them really what’s going on, which means that FUBO is spending a lot of time in the Clinton Bathroom cleaning up his shorts.
