Actually, there is a new “pollster” who evidently believes that when the data disagree with you, you should change the data: UnSkewedPolls. Romney claims inside polls which are very positive — but doesn’t release them.I smell desperation.http://www.salon.com/2012/09/25/the_website_where_mitt_romneys_winning_in_a_landslide/
Morty, No message is the message. I do give them credit for trying to spin the debates before they happen. The staff know that the R’s could nominate a block of cement and as long as it said “R” next to it on the ballot they’ll get 40-45%. Then its just about getting enough voters to get 270 electoral votes. The same holds for the D side. Go back 8 years and you’d find people saying they would vote for a goldfish instead of Bush if the D’s ran one.
Omni, if Willard loses, you’ll never hear from most of these trolls again, ever.-A few will hang around, but with a new handle. Very few will post again under the same name.
I’m substantially better off than four years ago, and I’m registered to vote at each of my addresses(absentee, of course).-You sound like Willard. Richer than four years ago, and a primary residence in four states, per property tax returns (subject to retroactive editing, of course).
The electoral college favors republicans this year. Electronic voting machines are susceptible to tampering physically as well as through the programming. Superpacs on both sides have been holding back alot of money and fund raising is still ongoing. But when all is said and done, if a party doesn’t have a filibuster proof majority in the senate and house, the divisiveness and tribalism that has hampered the last decades will likely continue. C.

Why do you think the liberals are so desperate to make it look like they are winning?

Reagan didn’t make the mistakes rigging an election that Nixon did.

Love the humor Mike. Good job!

It’s way too early to predict who’s going to win. Let’s talk issues, not polls.

The only thing they have right now is voter suppression.

Fox News, doubting the polls which showed Obama ahead by 10 points, asked its viewers to call in. Results of their survey Obama 10%, Romney 90%.

I’d go with www.fivethirtyeight.com, which was actually the most accurate in 2008 by a substantial margin.
