“Look: I’m trying to rally some morale, but I’ve never seen a candidate this late in the game, so far ahead, just throw in the towel in the way Obama did last week,”
Andrew must be so youthful as to not remember 1980.
Pew and Rasmussen have tied for #1 in accuracy of predictions over the last few elections. The polls that the media types fawn over are always down around 20th in accuracy. The libs are upset someone is actually not cooking the books on a poll to promote Obama.
Oh, man..that resonates.
Both sides have double standards. What a shocker!
I’m with Rush. Those big swings we are seeing after the debate in the polls are BS. They are BS because Romney has been ahead all along and the polls were badly skewed. Now, with the election drawing close and Romney clearly defeating Bozo in the debate the polls are beginning to show reality instead of fantasy. There is no way a debate could cause a poll to swing 12 points, unless those points were already there.
Or same standards, it's called ‘shoot the messenger”
Of course, "shoot the messenger" only if the news does not conform to your ideology, and "welcome the messenger," (even if it's the same messenger) otherwise, is a double standard.
At 9pm EST you have Hannity and Maddow complementing each other. They both (as do others like Rush) create imaginary worlds that people want to live in, worlds that dont exist. And that is good $$$ business.
They both prop up straw men and knock them down over and over. They both bring on Representives of the *other* side working for their network who then agree with them.
All the world's a stage.

There IS a difference in WHAT they sell. Forget Hannity, he is just a salesman for the RNC. Lets talk Maddow and Rush.
Maddow sells LIES, and is a malevolent human being. Rush sells CONSERVATISM, albeit sometimes with wishful thinking,
or a bit of propaganda. I think Rush views his calling as the man to keep conservatives pumped up, and to fight the good fight.
He preaches for us to not get depressed, and to make sure to get out and VOTE.
As for being good business, evidently business is not so good for Maddow, and great for Rush : )
$60,000,000.00 a year vs what ? 1-2 million?
