A week ago, the same poll had Clinton tied with Barack Obama, each with 45 percent.

1. Only 8 more to go...

...and then repeat it in EVERY SINGLE primary left and she has a shot...

[ut oh]

8. It's pulled from Rawstory ?

Doesn't site a link... It's a simple paragraph with no references at all to actual poll data...

Also noticed this blogger gets advertising dollars from Newsmax...

13. Its ARG

Not sure how reliable they are.

[featherman]

2. Strange stuff - wild swing - hmmmm

[tridim]

4. Impossible swing IMO

Enough to discount the poll entirely.

A 20 point swing in one week? Not a chance.

[Lerkfish]

7. Hillary's check finally cleared.

so they could start inventing poll data again.

hey, I kid, I kid.

[Lerkfish]

3. you're the FIRST one to point out this outlier poll

congratulations!

[BigBearJohn]

5. No -- It was on RAW STORY

[Lerkfish]

6. oh, sorry, I forgot this

:sarcasm:

10. Watch out for that "Sniper Fire"

Please enough with the "Silly Season".

[Mags]

9. she is back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[juajen]

11. Funny, this is the third time I've read about this poll, on DU.

You're making an assumption, and you know what they say about assumptions.

[Lerkfish]

12. sorry, I thought it was clear I was being sarcastic.

the internet does not translate inflection as well as we sometimes think.

[Infinite Hope]

14. Uh huh, sure. n/t

15. Who Is "American Research Group" ??

Their website provides absolutely NO information about them.

Color me skeptical.

16. New poll puts Clinton 20 points ahead in Pennsylvania

It was also on Drudge this morning.I just don't believe its an honest poll!

[valerief]

17. American Research Group. Sounds Dieboldy and Fundie to me. nt

18. Obamabots are funny.

Anytime a poll comes out that shows Clinton ahead it is an "outlier", "old", "used out-dated polling methods", "right wing", "never heard of that firm", "that firm has a terrible record", and "they must not have talked to the people I know".

[RBInMaine]

23. Call me an "Obamabot" and then whine when I say SLICK HILLY?? Don't think so.

[AZ Criminal JD]

28. Sorry not me. I don't whine about anything in politics.

[Skittles]

31. bitter, are ye?

:rofl:

[yellowcanine]

27. Actually this is the same poll the Clinton supporters were dissing just last week.

Saying it was an unreliable and not a legitimate poll.  It had Clinton and Obama tied at 45 % each.  But now that it has Clinton up, suddenly it is a reliable poll showing that Clinton has rebounded? That is pretty funny also you must admit.

[AZ Criminal JD]

29. I do admit that.

I think it is funny that supporters on both sides live or die by polls. They seem unwilling to let the actual voters vote. General Election polls at this point are meaningless if you look at history. Anyone saying Hillary or Barak has some advantage over McCain based on a poll knows nothing about the history of political polling in the last 50 years.

[Skittles]

33. that's part of the BOT mentality

coincidentally, that's part of the freeper mentality too

[stratomagi]

19. Like I've stated before

ARG could poll people on the color of an orange and still get it wrong.

[Turn CO Blue]

20. Here is the actual situation:

As the poll-of-polls Pollster trend shows, Senator Clinton will be doing well to NET more than ten (10) delegates over Senator Obama out of the 188 delegates in PA:

21. Diebold must be gearing up -- the corporate whore must win, after all

They'd better watch out -- they're either going to have a peaceful revolution or a violent one. If they don't accept the will of the people this time, I'm afraid we have a strong possibility for a great deal of violence after the election.

[juajen]

30. What about the will of the other people?

Nationally, Barack and Hill have been mostly tied. That means only half of the people want your candidate.

You people are such bullies, you plan to cram him up all our collective asses, whether he is wanted or not. Not the American way; we'll play this out and see who comes up the winner.

[melody]

34. Hillary is the bully who won't accept that the process is at an end. My candidate was Edwards

I worked my ass off for him. But the primary process is over. It's time for us to gather behind ONE nominee.

All your hopeless case is now is an impediment to a Democratic victory. All you're doing is helping McCain.
Pat yourself on the back when we lose in November.

[RBInMaine]

22. BULLSHIT ! You don't get a 20 point swing in one week. Total CRAPOLA !

[Doctor_J]

24. Strange. The Pennsylvanians seem to be buying Hil's Fox News-style smears

that bodes ill for her in the GE, since once the primary's over all the hate radio/Cable "news" outlets that are carrying her water now will turn on her.

[corporatemedia]

25. This is from a blog. NOT LBN but instead LBS. n/t

[singilarpoint]

26. Ummmm...

All it took was a two second Google search to find out that the American Research Group, is nothing more than a band of right wing kooks.....Too easy!
The right wing will do ANYTHING to go up against Hillary. They know that Obama will mop the floor with McCain!!!!! MSM+GOP=Hillary

[Skittles]

32. I honestly don't think polls are reliable

they just seem to be not much more than guessing lately
