Are We Gluttons for Punishment? Online Polls Are Worthless.
Do we enjoy unnecessary worrying?
Right now, I see a couple of exhortations to go and vote in two online polls about the debate last night. Why? They're unscientific, have no predictive value, and are being spammed by right-wingers.
Can we not wait a day or two for the results of some post-debate polls by organizations that at least make an attempt at a scienctific sampling? DUers are not going to vote in those online polls in numbers large enough to alter the results, anyhow. Why do we even bother to pretend that there's any value in wasting our time that way?
Forget it, folks. I wouldn't spend a moment on such a fool's errand. If you like, you can add one vote in your head for Hillary.
I'll wait for the legitimate polls later in the week, even those can be inaccurate, too. At least they're not horribly distorted by hordes of drooling right-wingers spamming them.
Uff da!
