What a truckload of putrid propaganda. ABC is the same network whose chief (whatever the f*ck his name is) came storming into the control room in 2000 demanding: "WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO TO CALL IT FOR BUSH!", or some such. Snuffaluffagus, during 'The View' was ON that poll telling the viewing audience numerous times that Rmoney pulled ahead - WITH WOMEN no less (though it remains beyond me why any woman would vote for a Republican, and particularly THAT one).
This is why I don't watch TV (I watch the videos online). The goddamned corprat propaganda is so putrid and thick, it makes me ill. That poll is an outlier given all others we've seen and from what I read here, the respondents to that "Rmoney is ahead" poll were the same respondents from another recent poll. WTF kind of bogus crap is that? It's hardly legit as far as even a half-assed poll goes.
These corprats want SO bad to sell Rmoney (or any American Taliban) to the country so they can protect their corprat asses (at the continued expense of the rest of us) that they'll try any lame-ass, slithery trick in the book so that they can manufacture a horse race out of this election. Between the corprat propaganda that most Americans unquestioningly swallow whole, the fucked-up voting machines (corprat controlled of course), and the mass voter purges and voter disenfranchisement a la Koch Bros/ALEC, Obama will have to amass 2x the number of votes he otherwise might, just to squeak out a win.
We don't have "elections" in this country. We have auctions and snake oil sales. What a load of maggot-infested horse shit.

Watch them steal this thing, and we had better be prepared to take to the streets this time.
