My point was that you have no idea what factors go into accurate polling--I'm not asking you to do my research. Since you decided to attack me for saying that I thought the race was going to be closer than the we speak america polling might suggest, I'm asking you to explain why you think "we speak america" is more accurate than PPP. It's a very simple question.

Bottom line--you cant tell me because you don't understand the differences, and I'm not sure you even understand that different polls use different methodologies. The best part is that instead of answering, you just start calling names again. I've raised five teenage boys, and I know a kid trying to turn a conversation because he's been "busted." You're not fooling anyone kiddo. When you disagree with someone you just start calling names, because you don't seem to understand the positions you're trying to defend.

I hope Walker wins .

It would show that a pompous ex-president's support and a dollar still gets you coffee in small towns.

Well, now it is just to see what poll was the closest, to get the most creditability.

Walker will win by wider margins than anyone can imagine. Union thugs have declared war upon the American people and tomorrow the American people get their chance to fire back.

It is...
nevermind this whole thing was supposed to be about collective bargaining. When's the last time anybody uttered that phrase?
Oh wait, taking away that from public sector employees (something very prominent democrats have supported in the past) seems to have worked it's magic and is no longer the top issue. Middle class, average wage, blue-collar folks are seeing their ungodly taxes start to trickle down finally.... of course democrats have long abandoned the average person in this country.
The mud being thrown at this point is just a bunch of frantic desperate silliness... trying to find anything that will stick so that the millions spent on this wasteful and reckless recall effort can look legit.

There are so many other factors--since this is an off cycle single issue election, no one knows for sure what the voter turn out will be, and that's probably going to be the single most important factor. People may support one side or the other, but if they don't turn up at the polls it doesn't matter. In the end it's going to be determined by who has the best ground game for getting out the vote. That's why I think it's going to be very tight.

If it's tight, which it won't be, the ONLY reason will be union/Democrat voter fraud.

If it's tight, which it won't be, the ONLY reason will be Koch/fascist/teabagger voter fraud.
