Obama's Fake Lead in the Polls, Exposed!

The polls that indicate the direction of the election are the ones in individual states, specificly in the battleground states - and they don't look good for R&R.

I will say this again, pollsters depend upon their reputations, they are depended upon by both sides to reveal the truth as much as they are able, if they are caught slinging numbers they will lose their customers. It is highly unlikely that groups of pollsters are cribbing just to put Obama in place.

This is typical of the right btw.

If just a few crazy righties were screaming it that would be one thing.... pretty much everyone that doesn't have there head shoved
up O's ass is saying it. It must be a grand conspiracy because it doesn't fit in with your opinion.

it doesn't fit with reality that has been accurately used to forecast elections for years and years, either.

it is impressive just how many righties like yourself are poor consumers of information with confirmation bias and just eat this shit right up though.

No. Sorry, show this "reality" or troll elsewhere.

the only republican worth voting for is actually an independent. (Ron Paul). i hope we have a Kucinich&Paul election next year, they would be great running mates and are adherents to the constitution, as they have already worked together in the past.

rasmussen got the outcome of the 2008 election within 1 point. nate @ 538 has nailed the last two elections state by state by state.

you're an idiot.
Obama's actual margin was 7.2%, and a complete analysis published in 2009 by the same author, Costas Panagopoulos, revealed Rasmussen to be tied for 9th most accurate.

Ninth makes him dead on. You're right. I'm just gonna vote Obama now, no point since "rasmussen" has already decided.

rasmussen's daily tracking poll had it nailed within 1 percentage point in 2008, fuckwit.

Did you see the Maddow piece on the GOP firing their voter registration contractor? Now they have no voter drives in five key swing states during the the last two weeks of voter registration. Two weeks that are crucial in the upcoming election. They asked the company to change their name due to a previous voter registration scandal and the company refused. The GOP kicked them to the street and they have no back-up plan. Altogether, there are nine states that are without GOP voter registration drives during this critical stage of the election cycle. I laughed. Heartily.

Carne - they are still depending on their voter suppression actions to give Romney the win - I believe Romney knows of these efforts and their internal tracking has him more confident than he whould ordinarily be, perhaps that is why his campaign is so lack luster, they know something we only suspect.


I mean, he doesn't have the black vote, he doesn't have the latino vote, he doesn't have labor, he doesn't have the poor and he doesn't have women, and the right claims the polls are skewed? Really?

We come to find out that one of the polls that had Obama up by 11 was a poll of 160 people with a margin of error of +- 8.

It seems the desperation is on the side of the pollsters trying to shore up Obama.
