The Better Obama does, the more he drops in the polls, the worse Palin performs

[Solomon]

the more popular she becomes.

I swear to God, I'm just about at my limit with the ideologues in this country. I will be so fucking glad when racism becomes a thing of the past.

1. sad, while the whole world is for Obama and some saneness

to return to the world some people in America are for this deadly ticket of McCain/Palin what 4 more of the same. Crazy.

2. no offense, but you are wrong.

In every state, GOP registrations have dropped, in some cases by 20%.
In 47 states, DEM registrations have risen, in a few cases by 30%, notably in some regions in the south east.

What you are witnessing is death by a thousand statistics. This far out, polls mean little, and are VERY easy to manipulate.

The polls you refer to IGNORE the change demographics of the voting public, and instead weigh the GOP side more heavily. That artificially depresses the Dem figures, and inflates McPalin's.

3. BUT... these polls make it easier to manipulate the race...

by SAYING there is a tightening "horse race" over a longer period, it gives better "cover" for the Republicans to commit election fraud on November 4th.

4. I couldn't have said it better antifaschits. Well said. n/t

5. People answering a phone versus people voting. HMM

6. Yep, they are manipulating polls and people. But it's so

disheartening to watch something like that interview only to wake and hear people praising this woman. I could just break something. To see Obama draw 250,000 people in Europe only to have Ameri cans complain that it's bad that they like him.

I'm almost ready to raise a white flag and admit personal defeat. Crawl into a cave and never vote again. Go find a toy to distract myself with for the rest of my life like most Americans do. Put my head up my ass like most Americans.

I give up. Fuck it.

7. This is why we have

to volunteer to phone bank and canvass. Even in the so-called red states. Peel off those undecideds and independents. Even if it means that the state will still go red. Someone mentioned death by a thousand statistics. I say death by a thousand undecideds and independents voting Democratic.
