Something odd is going on in the Tokyo-Rose-like MSM media. The polls are indicating Obama has already won the election. All of a sudden the MSM is drowning the news in poll, after poll, after poll indicating Obama has won by crushing numbers. The facts are saying otherwise.  It is not just the polling results properly weighted for Republicans and democrats at www.unskewedpolls.com but all over the country the facts are in direct conflict with Tokyo Rose.

In case you do not know who Tokyo Rose was, she was a lady broadcasting in the South Pacific during World War II to allied troops. The broadcasts were of a pleasant nature often featuring music with interspersed commercials telling soldiers what kind of losers they were and how they could not win the war. Fast forward to today and Tokyo Rose has transformed into the Main Stream Media (MSM) where their message is to tell average Americans what kind of losers they are and how resisting is futile. The MSM's greatest commercial featuring defeat is the poll designed to demoralize and conquer.

"The intent of these broadcasts was to disrupt the morale of Allied forces listening to the broadcast. American servicemen in the Pacific often listened to the propaganda broadcasts to get a sense, by reading between the lines, of the effect of their military actions."

If only the majority of Americans, and we are the majority, would understand that they have to have the same approach as the soldiers dealing with Tokyo Rose. In other words, you out there need to understand how to read the MSM's propaganda in order to know what they are most afraid of. Right now there is such a massive effort at disinformation to make you think the polls are giving Obama a victory, when the opposite is true. The principle is simple. Whatever the MSM is making a push for you to believe the most is what they are most afraid of.

Right now they know Obama is facing a crushing defeat. They would not be working so hard to push these polls if he were the favorite winner. He is not!

It is not just the properly weighted polls at www.unskewedpolls.com that shows a huge disconnect of the MSM but facts around the country simply do not reflect their polls. Look at the senate race of Linda McMahon ofConnecticut or the re-election effort of Scott Brown inMassachusetts, Both these Republican candidates are up in the polls in the liberalest of liberal states when they should not be. If Obama is ahead by such crushing numbers, these senate candidates should be collapsing and in fact the opposite is true. This is merely one fact of many that are simply indicating that Obama is facing enormous resistance to his re-election.

That is why the Tokyo-Rose-like MSM is spewing propaganda everywhere. During the Second World War American soldiers knew how to interpret the propaganda sludge. What the majority of Americans need to get good at is to interpret the MSM's propaganda sludge and read through the lines. It is that easy.

Readingthrough the lines as of today, you can see the panic in the MSM. This is a chilling panic and they are hoping that millions of Americans swallow the bait like loser suckers. They do not need to by a long shot since the facts say something totally different. Ronald Reagan was the favorite loser when he ran against Jimmy Carter. We saw what happened there. Romney is the MSM's favorite loser against Obama. Unfortunately, for the MSM their efforts at disinformation by reading through the lines show us just how frightened they are of defeat. They too see the real polls, and they see a cataclysmic loss for Obama. They seem convinced of it.

Learn to read through the lines and learn to ignore the Tokyo-Rose-like MSM like our American soldiers did through the war. Eventually they won a crushing victory and ours is less than two months away.

The way I see it, the polls are reflecting what the left will end up with after all of the fraud that will occur.

If Rasmussen is as accurate as usual, it won't take a lot of fraudulent votes to secure the win for Obama.

Sometimes I feel that I live in two countries, or living amongst aliens from outerspace and their enablers, who want to do everything possible to undermine our country and control our lives.

Correct me if I’m wrong:

Liberals ....

- despise our democratic system of government
- despise our constitution
- despise our religions
- despise our flag
- despise our independence
- despise our ability to get ahead
- despise our defense and defense of our country
- despise our friends and allies
- despise our way of life

I wish we could ethnically this country of these aliens!

IIRC, Tokyo Rose had a gun to her head. The MSM are willing collaborators.

TRM = Tokyo Rose Media. I like it...it should replace 'MSM', because there is NOTHING mainstream about the communist-enabling media. Nothing. TRM...learn it, live it, love it.

Interestingly, not even Raz saw the level of discontent in 1994. No one saw that coming.

A bit of a lesson in polling.

The talk you hear of oversampling Ds or Rs or Is to some extent doesn’t mean anything, and to another extent means everything. There are three flavors of turnout model.

1) The turnout mix of the last presidential election.

2) A new measurement of party affiliation done periodically and recently.

3) A semi random sample (non random only to the extent of being sure 80 of 100 telephone prefixes are not the same and providing a corrupted, accidentally non random mix) is taken. The respondents self identify party and that is what is reported.

The vast, vast majority of the polls showing big Obama leads are using (forcing) a partisan mix that fits 2008, which was 6 weeks after Lehman and very likely an aberration. If you used 2010’s partisan mix, you’d see a huge Romney lead.

As best I know, Gallup uses flavor 3. Totally random, respondents self identify and the sample’s partisan mix is reported as what the random measure got.

Not sure, someone will correct, but I think Rasmussen does a recent partisan mix measure of the population.

Regardless, no matter who you are as a pollster, no matter how honest and pure your measurement, if you use 2008’s turnout as the turnout model for your poll, you’re going to show an Obama lead.

It’s time to create the annual “Baghdad Bob Award” (aka the Bobby Award) for the polling firm with the absolute worst Day-Before-Election-Day Poll.

Your point about 2008 and Lehman is excellent. We are in Lehman x10 in 2012. Europe is going into depression. Bernanke sayig QE to infinity means the private sector is collapsing. American ambassador of Libya assassinated on anniversary of 9-11, Fast and furious, declining energy, 60 million on food stamps, real unemployment close to 12%, declining manaufacturing, skyrocketing health care costs etc. The point is that this is happening now and affecting everyone. to assume that people are not aware of this is absurd. The polling is delusional.

MSM is pimping for Obama. They can dream all they want. Obama is down in every category this time. How is he getting more votes? The youth now see the light with crushing school loans and burger flipper jobs. The Jewish vote will be less. A lot of blacks will stay home because of the same sex marriage debacle. There are still a LOT of very stupid people who will cancel my vote. Remember Aug 1st and the lines at Chick-fil-a. That enthusiasm will drive the Republicans to victory.

It’s because here in Soviet America, we love dead raped ambassadors, we like gay presidents, we like being made to look like fools to our enemies, we like tossing our freedoms hard fought for by better men then us down the crapper, hell, we like getting our asses kicked so much that we kick our own asses.

In 1994 the democrats were thrown out of the house for the first time in 40 years because of Hillary’s Hillarycare. The same will happen in 2012. Basically the opposition to Obamacare is 60-40 and this will be the same margin by which Romney will win.
