No becaue Rasmussen cooks its polls.

Go ahead, look in your own navel for "data".

All you'll find is your own lint.
This is a Gallup poll, which happens to mirror Rasmussen and every other poll.

Tough to stomach, isn't it?

And yet to find a margin of error in Gallup's sample.

That's unexcusably sloppy for any pollster- crooked or not!
Go to the website and look for the methodology - it's really that simple.

Try scrolling all.the.way.down.the.page to the Survey Methods.

Exit question; Should you be offering an opinion on "polling data" when you can't even find the methodology - if it was a snake, it would bite you.

Rasmussen is not a credible organization.

It's that simple.

This all sort of reminds me of someone wildly floundering at sea trying to figure a way way to shore.

All the polls are trending in the same direction. Can they all be wrong? Are they all skewed against Obama?

And how come when the polls all showed Bush in the 'pooper' the far left was all too happy to point that out.

And how come when Obama was moving up in the polls the last month before the election, all the leftists came out right here at CD and touted Rasmussen, Gallup and anyone else showing those results?

You can't have it both ways. We're 6 months into this administration and the polls are headed down. People aren't stupid, we don't want the government to take over everything we do ... we're fighting back and this is just the tip of iceberg. Makes me proud.
