Re: “CNN Statistical Tie”

Less than 400 people polled.

Margin of Error - plus or minus 5%

And still more accurate than this CNBC internet poll with a MOE of 100%

Why is anyone worried at all about ANYTHING CNBC says?

Biden needed a knock out punch in order to right the ship for his team. He didn't have one. He came off as the crazy rude uncle. Therefore he lost.

"He came off as the crazy rude uncle."

Coupled with a lazy, indifferent, narcissist. Now that is a winning combination. ;-)

Online polls are stupid and useless.

There was a day when we owned them, and it was cool to Freep them. We invented the concept, we invented the word. Good for us.

But the other side caught on. They have more nitwits with all kinds of time on their hands. We should no longer fight them in this arena. Let the online polls be lopsided in their favor. People will see that for what it is.

Where we can make an impact is in the arena of ideas - blogs and forums.

I would encourage that each of us adopt a blog or two. Register, get in, and crush the opposition with facts, history, humor, and etiquette. Don't get into personal mud-slinging. Challenge opponents to cite factual sources, not feelings.

Most local papers have an online edition, and most online editions have a blog or a forum. Pick one, get in, and dominate. The Truth is on your side. I'm having the time of my life.

Remember, a lot more people view the forum than actually post. You are trying to sway the votes of the viewers. You will never convince the Obamanites and Dhimmicrats, but they are not your target, they are useful idiots. Your target is the undecided viewer and the unmotivated conservative.

This on the left will try to read into this debate as if they're reading tea leaves to predict how it will impact the future. At the very best for Biden, it might've been a political draw. The VP's body language, goofy antics, interruptions, his "uh uh uh's, " and utter lack of respect--if anything, turned many off.

And in the very end, this debate comes down to the President, not his #2. Obama's lack of preparedness and impotence against Romney will continue to be his downfall. This debate won't change that. It is the fact that Obama's performance matched his record over the past four years--dismal. If anything, Biden's performance should scare people into thinking, "this is the guy who would replace Obama, should something happen?"
