| Encouraging Stat pointing to an Obama Victory (from Lou Dobbs, believe it or not) |
|
Apparently on Lou Dobbs' show tonight, he brought up this stat:
The eventual President has always been ahead in the Gallup poll taken 100 days before the election.
We just past the 100 day mark two days ago. And Obama was ahead.
Dobbs also pointed out that in every case but one, the race tightened after that 100 day poll. But in the end, the leader of the poll 100 days out has always won.
How nice of Lou to point this out.

...the only reason he brought it up was because of THIS Gallup poll: http://blogs.usatoday.com/onpolitics/2008/07/gains-for-mccai.html |

| 2. But that's not THE Gallup poll. |
|
That's not the poll or the polling system that's been used for decades.
