Polls before the real polls on election day are a waste of time. If you like your candidate, don’t let polls discourage you. Polls should not be used to support or undermine your opinion.

Just do your best to determine the right thing to do, and do it on election day.

The Fox News poll is based on live telephone interviews on landlines and cell phones from September 9 to September 11 among 1,056 randomly-chosen likely voters nationwide. “Likely voters are registered voters who are considered most likely to vote in the November presidential election. The poll is conducted under the joint direction of Anderson Robbins Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R). For the total sample, it has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points”

But, but, zero is a hard worker. You don’t think its easy playing golf every day do you? It takes work to walk to and from AF1 and land in and out of fundraising events. Of course, its also hard work making sure the wookie is happy. Cause if the wookie isn’t happy - no one is./s

I’m not trying to annoy you, but I did a web search recently on Fox News polls from the Bush/Kerry election and their poll just a few days before the election had Bush leading by about 2.5 points, if I recall correctly.




I don't know if the Fox pollsters published online their final adjusted poll in 2004 election, but I clearly remember a Fox talking head reporting the Kerry 5% lead on election day. And a day before...

Reported here on FR, that on November 1st 2004, a day before the election, Kerry had a 3% lead over Bush:

(November 1, 2004) Fox News Poll: Kerry 48%, Bush 45% (RV)

Where I said in post #6 four years ago, "On election day in 2004, the FOX poll had Kerry winning by 5%."

>> Come to think of it, I’m not sure why he is famous at all.

‘cause he has a mouth the size of a train tunnel, and the patient, persuasive demeanor of a mick barroom brawler, and that skill set is in demand on teevee.

(I’m just guessing here.)

Fox announced it was shifting left earlier this year.

But Fox staff has always been Dems .

I recall 80 % vote Dem on this Manhattan based operation voted Dem in 2008.
I know the local Tampa Fox was 99 % Leftist when my wife worked there and she guessed 50 % gay.

BOR is a DEM .
He pals are Barb-WA WA and professional adulteress Sally Quinn !
He fools no one .

Found it; bookmarked a link to it in my web browser. Look at this poll released two days before the poll you referenced. Geez, Fox poll results moved significantly within just two days:

Any ideas?

A horse race boosts ratings.

If the media were to report how unpopular Obama really is they wouldn't make nearly the amount of money they do when they manipulate the numbers to be neck and neck.

Maybe this is a head fake, with polling served up to broaden their audience to include more of the stupid. Their polling has always been discounted and the only attraction it could possibly hold would be to the stupid, who might be convinced how fair, how balanced they are.

FOX uses the master, Rasmussen, for the real take away and use him regularly.

And don’t forget his man buddy Dennis Miller, who made a fortune making fun of conservatives before 9/11, then supposedly had an awakening and became “conservative”. A “conservative” who still proudly claims he is pro-abortion and pro-homo marriage, but he believes in a strong military, so now he claims he’s “conservative” and talks about the “left” all the time. Well ground control to Dennis Miller, you’ve been a liberal all your life and you’re still a liberal.

Obama can top Romney all he wants. Obama can be reelected by anti-americans to lead America into hell.

But I won't go there.

The Constitution means nothing to bambi and bambi means nothing to me.
