CNN probably regrets polling viewers after Trump’s RNC speech because, well… WOW
BizPac Review ^ | July 22, 2016 | John Binder

For viewers, a whopping 57 percent said they had a “very positive” reaction to the speech, while only 24 percent said the speech had a “negative effect.”

Even more incredible for Trump was that 73 percent of viewers said the policies proposed in the speech would move the country in the “right direction,” with only 24 percent saying otherwise.

The speech left 56 percent of viewers saying they are “more likely” to vote for Trump.

Yes, I would guess that the difference was style v. content. I wasn’t so thrilled with the style (too loud for my taste), but the content, wow!

Ezra Klein and his Journo-list mob are just well hidden and underground. They still coordinate everything in the news. Their overuse of the word “dark” was too obvious, and you caught it. They reacted because of hysteria and threw it out too fast.

In all elections, most people do not vote based on issues or facts and logic.

In normal elections most people vote for the person who appears to be friendly and their friend and against the unfriendly person.

In this election, the negative vote against what is scary or dishonest or other negative non-issues plays a bigger factor than in normal elections.

Consider that many prolifers vote for pro-abort candidates. Many socialists vote for corporatists. Many capitalists vote for corporatists. People often vote against their own ideology...to the extent they have an ideology.

Wonder what the real demographic (party) breakdown of those polled was? One report said twice as many repubs polled as dems. If so, it could make “response” look more positive than it was? Normally they poll disproportionately in favor of Dems, so why over sample Repubs here?

Fantastic figures with such a “dark” speech.

In 2000 the MSM tried to deny collusion in their use of “gravitas” re Cheney. They don’t even bother to deny any more. I am looking forward to the next release from wiki leaks.

It’s almost like someone was giving the media talking points.

It's amazing how Melania Trump says "his word is his bond" and the MSM goes bananas, but the MSM as a whole simultaneously calls Trump's speech "dark" and it's just a coincidence.

Name that report.

I love to see the media harry Obama about this. “Why does a heavy majority of Americans thing America is on the wrong track, and also support Trump? Why are your positions in the minority, Mr. President? Doesn’t that mean that when it comes to your policies, that’s not who are?”

I can dream...

Another big part of voting...is who bothers to actually vote. This is the biggest swing contingent.

One would figure they polled those who actually watched the speech. One would expect most of those were Republicans.

If Rush weren’t so in the tank against Trump, he’d do one of his famous montages proving that the MSM receives blasts from the White Hut on how to report the news. It’s sort of hilarious.

If Rush weren’t so in the tank against Trump...

I listened to him Friday and what I heard was totally different. He sounded very enthusiastic about Trump.
