Oh my.
Talk about a blast from the past; the blue primitive had fleeting, epheremal contact with franksolich during poor stupid Beth's scam many years ago.

Gravis Marketing is ****ing up all the polling averages
Who are they and what standing do they have to poll?
They are worse than Rasmussen and Zogby (and that's BAD).
They know that RCP and all the other political sites pool the polling averages, so they parachute in with a pro-Romney poll every time a real pollster unveils a poll showing Obama leading in a state.
DU, Nate Silver, RCP and other political sites need to stop including their polls and pretend like they don't exist.
New campfire, no primitives at it yet.

The RCP polling average is skewed by all those +10-14 point donk advantages.
The thought occurs to me that when the DUches think that 0 has done something wonderful or Romney has screwed the pooch, the MSM is always of that opinion too. What that indicates is the MSM is as tight a hive mentality as the DUmp, maybe more so, and that both of them are 98% of the time wrong.
When the shit hits the fan, I'm baggin my limit on journalists before i even think about politicians and lawyers.
