To: nhwingut
I think the ABR crowd might want to read the poll. A poll of adults is not a serious poll. This isnt even a registered voter poll.
This poll has more to do with DOJ suing Gallup then any thing else
Is this a result of axelrod strong arming Gallup?
I guess I should already know this, but I don't. What's the story behind the Obama DOJ threatening to sue Gallup? What are they using as justification/what are they claiming as the basis for this threat?

Didnt Dick(head) Morris say that the polls would show Mitt with a permanent 5-6 point lead after the GOP convention?

(53,661 posts)Good grief, can't they admit that Obama has done anything right at all? Can't they listen to one speech that's not edited by the Breitbarts and FoxNoisers and just think for a minute? Maybe even look at him and pretend it's a white man talking, just hear his ideas?

(14,857 posts)I think the rest of them convinced themselves that he had nothing to do with it, even that it went on without him knowing anything about it and then he took credit for it. Delusional doesn't begin to describe them.

(99,710 posts)And a person can even be unaware of the assumptions he makes when building a poll. I don't think Gallup has their finger on the scale but I do think Rasmussen does.
Also, Gallup has a tight likely voter screen which we haven't seen this election cycle.

Sure, there are crappo polls done by pollsters with agendas and fingers on the proverbial scales but by looking at all of them we get a good picture of what is going on....

Every election is always close (via polls) until the last month. Been that way for years even when we look back and see that the results, except 2000, were always one way or the other, easily predicted by just looking at the overall mood of people around you
No-not all elections are the same and I think it depends on the mood of the people around you, me, and every other voter.

An electorate that puts the likes of Clinton into office twice, a Kenyan Indonesian communist at least once , gave the lunatic Al Gore the popular vote in 2000, and may elect a Mormon Bishop degenerate sociopath liar and coward is an electorate that is DEMENTED.
The collapse of this Republic is inevitable.

(6,342 posts)Their social agenda is whacky as all hell. The Akin thing is the just the tip of the iceberg when to comes to social conservatives. It's so whacky Im surprised the libertarians don't just bolt out of that party. Its got to be embarrassing to be associated with that stuff.
