The polls are not counting the millions of voters who will vote against Berry Hussein. They don't care for Mccain but they feel that Berry must be stopped at all costs. How do the pollsters count these voters?

How can you say that? The people you reference get sampled just like the rest of the population in the polls. They show up in the polls, and their preferences show up just like everybody else's. They ARE being counted. Why would you say they are not?

I got polled by the AP earlier this year (The night before Palin’s convention speech, IIRC), and they didn’t ask me who I liked, they asked me who I would vote for if the election were held that day. Someone who votes for McCain solely to stop Obama would answer “John McCain.”

That said, I think LS is probably right. If he wasn’t, the media wouldn’t be feeding us polls that have a sample of Democrats ten percent larger than these polls usually have.
