Remember back in November when Michelle Obama was booed at a NASCAR race?

Well, a new poll shows NASCAR fans are now moving into the Obama camp.

An online survey of of 860 likely voters nationwide – taken Sept. 21 and 22 – shows President Barack Obama with an 7-point lead over GOP challenger Mitt Romney, according to a new Zogby Poll [PDF] with JZ Analytics.

I’m disappointed no one has brought out the bullshit detector yet.

[God luvs America]

anything put out there by zogby is not only hard to believe- it shouldn’t be believed...

[AD from SpringBay]

The polls have become a caricature of themselves.

[stevio]

This is total BS.

[SeminoleCounty]

The Liberal Media is really really desperate

I seriously doubt that NASCAR fans are more likely to vote for Obama than Romney.

They must have polled people only at Watkins Glen and Sonoma...because that would be the only NASCAR stops that you may even have some Democrats/Liberals at a race.

Heck, you probably cannot find one motor racing league or competition where they would support Obama over Romney....not even Formula 1 (the US fan of F1)

The Christian Science Monitor is neither Christian nor scientific!

[Chaguito]

Of all people in the country, NASCAR people are the most likely to punk the pollsters.

Online survey?

Uh hunh.

[KarlInOhio]

Online survey? If only there was a verb for taking over an online survey and intentionally skewing its results for humor and mischief. Oh, I remember, it's Freeping a poll.

Is Zogby doing an online survey of NPR listeners? We can drop by and show them how Romney is 20% ahead among "All Liberal Things Considered" fans.

I don’t think that even Baghdad Bob could say this with a straight face.

[cableguymn]

Lets not forget the dim(wits) canceling their day at the speedway because no one wanted to go “there”.

[cableguymn]

It’s broken. Went so far off the chart the needle got stuck.

[cableguymn]

hot green enough. Needs wind up key or extension cord. Otherwise nice photoshop ;)

[popdonnelly]

This has got to be BS.

[adorno]

Another outlandish poll from someone somewhere, will show that, Obama leads with conservatives with about an 8 point advantage.

Polls can be made to reflect whatever one wants, if they want it bad enough.
