The polls are wrong! Victory is certain! Believe, liberals!
AC, this is exactly what you mean isn't it?
Que?
I've begun to suspect that the two troll dickheads are actually one dickhead posting with two accounts. Dickhead Jr.'s post above fuels that suspicion further.
Either that, or they need to get a room. They're starting to scare the horses…
And make sure that the damn door is shut and locked tight.
I don't think so. One is clearly stupider than the other.
Could be part of the act. Wouldn't want them to appear too similar.
Make one the foolish, inarticulate, unquestioning little dumbbell who laps up every bit of Teabbagger swill and regurgitates it unquestioningly like a hapless parrot, while the other. in truth nothing but an equally dim, shallow and unthinking parrot itself, presents the arrogant, chickenhawk, slightly more clever and devious hard-ass persona.
It would be simple to do — a good thing, considering the tiny intellect of its potential perpetrator.
Believe what you want. I enjoyed watching rove melt down on fox and the look on 47% mitt's face was priceless. Remember right wingers were told he was ahead in the polls. In 2010 polls had ken buck ahead by 3 on election day – how is Senator buck these days? We were also told by the polls that romney would win in Colorado – Where is President romney?
Mod,
First off, are the polls internals curious, sure. It is not the first poll we have seen in this race that the numbers make no sense.
What is humorous is that now it it the polls fault.
The movement in the last couple days is indicative of a late breaking wave. A couple months ago I have Republicans picking up 7 seats. Under that scenario they would lose North Carolina and one of Colorado or Iowa. Today they are ahead in Colorado and Iowa and pulling even in North Carolina after having moved a ton of money there to offset what has been a significant Dem spending advantage.
Looks like a pick of 9 right now, and things could change, but so far the change has been moving things towards the Republicans.
With so many polls not being independent any more, it was only a matter of time before they started being used to influence an election. Could be that is why so many are so wrong on their predictions; romney in a landslide, cantor up by 30 points, the state of Virginia last year, predicting the gop take over of the Senate 2010,2012 and 2014. At least most pollsters this year are saying that the gop is favored to take over the Senate but they also say it is too close to call this time.
I was on a national call this morning that discussed this phenomenon. You're spot-on, denverco, these polling companies (and to a largest extent the newspapers) are becoming wholly-owned subsidiaries. On the call they did a great job of deconstructing what has happened vis-a-vis the WashPo predictions. It's no surprise, for instance, that the new ownership of WP is having a significant impact on its operations and new political bent. Once you filter out all of the RF noise and harmonize the statistical differences, most of these Senate races remain genuine toss-ups. What is going to make the difference is GOTV – and in that category the Dems have a significant advantage. I'm not taking anything for granted – but this ground game is impressive.
The Dem ground game is indeed impressive. And I guarantee everyone that our Herpes-like trolls and their filthy benefactors are very nervous about it — their baseless bluster and cheap braggadocio notwithstanding….
Speaking of which, I must get back to work now…
Even if the poll is inaccurate, I guess the Post still got their money's worth as long as the bottom line had the numbers they were asking for…
So much for the reality based community. All of this sounds very familiar to the Republicans 2 years ago who were so sure RMoney would be elected. Look at the poll aggregators. All of them have Udall losing and all have him sliding into oblivion. You guys need to get back to reality. Udall, a 60% chance of winning.? Maybe you meant to say losing. What's the old saying about wisher and horses? No matter how much you want to wish, it is just a pipe dream and based upon nothing but speculation and wild hopes.
Good point.
Polling in favor of Dems, brilliant.
Polling in favor of Republicans, inaccurate.
Da Nile is not just a river in Egypt.
Here's a thought about the hard-to-believe numbers in the Denver Post poll…. what if people lied about their ethnicity? I myself have had some fun messing with the automated polls. Some days I'm a female, some days a male. I've been in every age range and affiliated with every possible political party. The only poll that has any credibility is the one where votes are counted on election day.
