^ Bingo. Notice how none of them have voted in your Obama's EV thread? Not hard to figure out why.

Wow! Even the Moonie Times is reporting it...
Obama widens lead Link Obama has opened a sizable lead over Mitt Romney in polling ahead of the election as both Democrats and Republicans are increasingly convinced that he is going to win re-election, according to The Washington Times/Zogby Poll released Sunday. In the latest poll, Obama drew 49 percent support while Romney garnered 41 percent. The previous Times/Zogby polls showed the race a dead heat — including just before the national party conventions, when they were tied with 45.7 percent of the vote each. Even with third-party candidates added to the mix, the results barely changed. Obama’s support is growing even as voters are split on whether they are better off from four years ago and even as voters said they weren’t happy with the president’s handling of the attacks on U.S. diplomatic posts three weeks ago. ![]() |

Not taking a position on this one way or the other, but I thought this was interesting:
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefi...ased-for-obama Made me wonder if the poll about polls was also skewed? And then I got hungry and went to the fridge. |

Then they bring up Dick Morris, who somehow has Romney up on an average of 5% in states like OH, FL, NV and even Pennsylvania that has no shot at switching red. He is even more conservative in his polling bias than Rasmussen is. Even Rasmussen and his polling subsidiaries have Obama with leads in swing states, and a Rasmussen subsidiary just released a poll showing that a majority of Americans expect Obama to win. Just sounds like a bunch of cry babies finally starting to realize that their candidate is junk. He has yet to offer a stance on why you should vote for him, but has been in attack mode against Obama. Not a good strategy. He is toast. He was toast six months ago when he was winning in primaries and caucuses. Mittens, you've been smitten! |

![]() Just using the only state polls published since the debate..... Cherry picking would be going back and using old polls just because the old data looks better for Obama.... Election is a lot closer than you leftists think. Think you will be shocked by the only poll that counts in Nov. |

Romney is a liar, a huckster, and a flim flam man. That doesn't mean he can't attract voters, however.

And interestingly enough those who follow polling and their methodologies seriously know that Rasmussen, Gravis and We Ask America are the most well-known establishments from Republican leaning bias. Just like the PPP is biased towards Democrats. This is something you conveniently ignore.

1. They sampled 3.6% more republicans than dems. Thought that was skewing the polls when it went the other way around? 2. They sampled 8% hispanics in a 21% or more hispanic state. 3. They sampled literally twice as many people between 50-64 than 18-29. 4. They skewed very slightly towards women, but in a state that has a 200K gender gap favoring women, i.e. under sampled. Happens to also disproportionately favor Obama. See, this is what people mean when they talk about ****ty polling, not the blanket "dur, gots to be cookin' them numbars!" bull**** the right has been trying to pull. Look into the actual data and you can see if a poll is accurate. |
