Will the pollsters EVER admit Obama might actually have MORE than 50% support?

[Ken Burch]

And how much further can this skewing go before the polling organizations totally discredit their findings in the eyes of the public?

[Aerows]

1. Probably not

A week or so ago, we learned that Gravis Marketing, a pollster used by Nate Silver at 538, donated to the Romney campaign. Would it surprise you to learn that they publish his polling number about 5% higher than everyone else?

These guys are frauds that WANT you to keep watching the polls so they can benefit. They don't care about accuracy.

2. I get it that they want people to keep watching their polls

but aren't they going to drive people away if it becomes clear that their polls were bogus?

3. Some poll his approval at that # and some don't.

Gallup 9/17 - 9/19 1500 A 46 48 -2
Rasmussen Reports 9/17 - 9/19 1500 LV 51 48 +3
Associated Press/GfK 9/13 - 9/17 807 LV 52 47 +5
NBC News/Wall St. Jrnl 9/12 - 9/16 900 RV 50 48 +2
FOX News 9/9 - 9/11 1056 LV 50 47 +3
CBS News/NY Times 9/8 - 9/12 1162 LV 49 46 +3
Democracy Corps (D) 9/8 - 9/12 1000 LV 49 48 +1

With matchups to Romney, only Pew and the NBC/Wall St. Journal Poll show Obama at 50% or more.
