heh. I like watching all the McCain supporters disregard polls that don't favor him yet post every single AP and IDB poll that does.
Let me add another one that puts McCain in a far more favorable light - one that the Dems didn't want released. It's an "inside" poll that has come to light showing a tight race, very much within the margin of error.
I always dismiss the polls that we hear day in and day out. It's an attempt to manipulate, and at the very least, they are not accurate for reasons cited earlier. People don't tell the truth, or the polls are carefully worded to produce the response the pollster wants.
Again, if this forum existed back in 2004 the liberals would be posting the same sort of polls and they would look very similar showing John Kerry with sometimes huge leads.
Kerry did not go on to win did he? I'm not saying Nobama can't win, but it's not over until November 4th.
I thought the same thing at first but then went on RCP and looked at the final polls for the 04 elections (not the exit polls but the ones in the two weeks before elections) and the race was nearly neck-and-neck, with Bush slightly ahead (by about a percent)
The election is November 4. That is the only poll I am interested in. As the other poster says, "Polls are pointless" and can be biased by their questioning. I never give straight answers to pollsters. It is none of their business who I am voting for. We do still have the curtains closed for national elections although Obama wants them taken away for Union votes.
Well, as a union member, I'm sure glad there's still plenty of time for you to change your mind and vote for Obama.
