None of them are worth a hill of beans. The latest NYT/CBS poll with a Dem oversampling of 15+ is just laughable.

the race is "Obama's to lose".

And that he will....spectacularly!

The polls can go hang, what I want to know is:

Who won the Hollaween Mask sales race!

I read that Gov Palin was the most popular on Yahoo!, but that is not the same, we won the cookie contest, we need the 3rd grade vote contest and *gulp* the Redskins to defeat the Steelers on Monday Night Football..

We should also keep in mind the “feedback loop” effect of polls and 24-hour news stations/sites, as well as the subtle and not so subtle effects of the fact that the majority of pollsters are likely Obama voters. See http://www.zombietime.com/lefts_big_blunder/ for more info.

Sorry but the Weekly Reader kids picked Obama by a huge margin:

Hopefully when McCain and Sarah get into the Non-Blackhouse they will make some changes and laws concerning future polling.

The Obamedia runs the polls. The Obamedia is in the tank all the way for their “messiah.” Why would anyone in their right mind believe what they are saying? Honesty and truth are things that the Obamedia no longer believes in. Media types all have their own agenda and they’ve all developed a “whatever it takes” mentality to push their agenda to the people.

It's so obvious that the polls are crooked once you look at the internals...if they actually publish them.

I know, I know, but we should have seen this one coming.
Obama has been in the media like a celebrity for MONTHS, and on RS, and US Weekly, and on MTV.
