Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

The models have been bad all season long - Party ID advantage should not be more than 5 points for the Dem, and that being extra generous.

When one looks at them all, its is obvious there is a major problem with the methodology - the results are all over the place.

They have been pushing 'O' so hard it is really getting under my skin.

I would be ashamed if I was in journalism.

These polls are mostly conducted by random phone calls and in some cases people who only have cell phones. Not everyone will reply to them.

In all my years I have never been polled, ever.  How many more like me?
