Poll,Polls,Polls
I am convinced that on the home stretch the RNC is conducting push polls and passing the info to the MSM..Noting that CNN has Corker ahead by as much a 8%..This jump is almost overnight.I am also convinced that when the going gets tough the media jumps on the same train as the GOP.
CNN/Wolf Blitzer/GOP/Karl Rove

1. You think?
They have to explain how the voting for the repubs happened--you can't blame the voting machines, people might demand election reform.

4. Thats what CNN had this evening(its on their web site)
thats what they televised..Now what they dont tell us is that both campaign internal polls had the race nearly tied..What they didnt tell us is that among registered voters the race is tied..but they didnt bother to say that ..Which leads me to believe they are getting their walking/talking orders from Rove ..What is probably a key factor is this was broadcast on the Wolf Blitzer show..

5. I have SUCH fun with push-pollers!
Most of them have been hired to ask questions on the page and have hardly even read them to themselves. One time I engaged one of the questioners. I asked her if she thought the question was looking for a particular answer. She hadn't ever even considered the possibility, thought about it and agreed with me. I then defined a "push-poll" for her. It turns out the poor girl didn't know who had paid to have the poll run or how it might be used.

It was fun to explain the beast to her, and she thought it was interesting. I don't expect her to quit her job, but she might let her co-workers in on the game.
