I really hate polls. Seriously we were screwed in 2012 with the embarrassing polls showing we were winning only to lose pretty handedly. Last week polls were saying Udall had it in the bag. I guess it depends on what the polling company thinks. Trust me when I say it would be wonderful to get rid of Udall, but I will wait and see Tuesday election night.
I’m the say way. Polls are taken only to show the DemocRATS where they need to work harder with their voter fraud machine.
One thing that helps is checking the methodology and dismissing polls that only show the results of registered voters. Likely voters are the only ones that come closer to the reality. Registered voter polls always lean Democrat and are usually done by groups wanting a pro-Dem outcome.

Udall’s commercials are all about abortion. Gardner’s are about family values and the future. Has his daughter with him.
Meh. Talk to me after election day. Same crap about Romney’s landslide and the GOP retaking the Senate. Furthermore, there are only about 2-3 polls worth a hoot anyway.
I guess it’s just an interesting exercise and about as meaningful as NFL pre-season team rankings. In other words, utterly useless and even less reliable.
Funny thing is Democrats think that we cheat and after Mississippi I guess they are right.
Good point and right on the money.
Which is going to be overwhelming this year when all of the illegals show up in Colorado.
So it appears we’re back to the “unskewed polls” noise. That was less than spectacularly successful in 2012.
But what does the peerless prognosticator Dick Morris say?
I suspect they’d be blasted as racists and that they hate Hispanics (so what’s new), but perhaps the day before election day (or start of early voting in a state), True the Vote and other groups that are against election fraud ought to put out campaign ads in Spanish stating that if you aren’t a legal American citizen you can’t vote and you will potentially prosecuted for voter fraud, which is a serious Federal crime in the US and they will be put in jail (yes, I know that a lot of voter fraud cases aren’t prosecuted, but given they’re “living in the shadows” a lot of them don’t know that).
GOPe will drop the ball. They piss on the base and expect a big turnout.
Thanks, beaversmom! More encouraging news.

Down here in Southwest Colo. I have only seen one Udall commercial and no Gardner commercials. That should change.
And as you say, it was about abortion. Gardner is smart to concentrate on family values and the future. I hope he ties in Udall with Obama.
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
how so?? the polls never really swung in our favor in 2012...i remember polls up until the last days basically saying it could go either way....
According to the article, ‘’Senator Udall has already spent roughly $7,000,000 out of his $13,000,000 war chest, mostly on attack ads aiming to define Gardner early.’’
Which means the Udall campaign has wasted $7,000,000 so far, since Gardner’s poll numbers have RISEN rather than fallen because of Udall’s attack ads. So Republicans should hope Senator Udall keeps his attack ads coming, the more the better.
