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.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
