1. I keep telling people that a lot of the polls are not correct. |
|
The Democrats if ahead should not try to coast and if behind just campaign more. I do not absolutely do not trust the republican owned companies taking these polls. I have said over and over they and the media are just setting it up so that if they can scam the voting machines then the results will seem normal. I do not trust the republicans as far as you can throw them. Most couldn't win a race to the outhouse and the only way they "win" races is to program the machines. Bush did not win either of his two races. And you will never get me to believe it. goodness knows how many republicans now in office didn't win their races legally. You see the crap Rove and the rest of them do. I wish they would go back to paper ballots.

Respectfully, we are going to look like idiots if we cry fraud every time we lose an election.

3. My question: Why did the media and the machines decide not to do the same in 2008 or 2006? |

If you find the results of a poll satisfactory that polling outfit is the greatest in the world. If you find the results unsatisfactory the polling outfit are Republican tools. If you understand that you will understand everything.

5. Not everybody had it wrong ............ |
|
Two polling companies had it right within a point and Obama's internals were dead on. It's bound to happen every once in a while where many major pollsters get it wrong, but for the most part they are usually pretty good. People can complain all they want, but that's the truth.
