Very good point, cbn. The problem with exit “polls” is they are completely unscientific, because you cannot get a truly random sample. At most it is a trend of the moment. It’s a survey not a poll, and while interesting, cannot determine a trajectory in any certain direction. Since most Americans do not understand what a poll, survery, random vs. haphazard sample, etc, these should not even be allowed to be broadcast. Even if the talked to only women at the exit, ALL women will not vote Obama, it’s just inaccurate, really.

And how many years just in the recent past in narional elections have the exit polls been azz-backwards? They've called it for Kerry, for Gore-does everyone forget the MSM is in the tank for the left, and O'Reilly is no conservative?
