1. Have you been paying attention here? Gallup is a total outlier

that oversamples Southern Republicans?

I just looked, as something seemed off in the primitive post.

Gallup has Romney 52%, Barack Milhous 45%.

Isn't that seven points, rather than six?

Or is my arithmetic off?

6 points is from yesterday.  We gained a point today.

After spiking the polls by double digit democrat party members the polls will have to start making a slow turn back toward reality.

I'm not letting this sway my determination to fight against the forces of evil and continue to make calls for Romney and other races. We need the senate and i can't believe that the established republicans are not assisting Akin in what is a very vulnerable senate seat. The democrats sure would have stuck with whatever idiotic things come out of their mouths.

There's only 1 poll that matters...

...the election day exit polling.

Yup.  That'll be the tool used to establish the meme that rMoney stole the election from The Holy WON of Chicago.

All the howling DUmp posts will be referencing it on Election night.

Whoa.

You're right; it evaporated.

Well now. If they can't handle 6 points, then they are truly children.
CC didn't disappear threads in the 08 election. But then we don't build foundations upon the "It was all stolen!" theme. DUmmies are really setting themselves up for a fall this time. Didn't California pass a law that their electoral votes automatically go to the winner of the popular vote? That means the state will vote for BamBam, and Romney gets an even BIGGER tally.

This is gonna be fun. The screaming, the protests, the occupiers mass pooping in fear, the Guy Fawkes masks spontaneously bursting in flame....I took November 7th off...just to savor the despair.

It's gonna be sweet, isn't it! DUmmy tears and anguish flowing through the streets like utopian rivers of milk and honey; the sounds of disciples of the Holy WON of Chicago weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth floating on the breeze...

Just out of curiousity, who determines where exit polls are conducted?
I can't get over the feeling that locations are choosen for the purpose of advancing the polsters own views.
Even an honest poll wouldn't reflect the truth.
Conservatives tend to be a bit more private, and the libs are just plain mouthy.
I wouldn't trust an exit poll anymore than I would trust the government with my money.

[Rufus2010]

The clowns on the All Barack Channel (aka ABC) were saying Zero is currently leading in Iowa and Wisconsin... heard on Hannity earlier it was currently a mix-up . Keep it up Dingdong Sawyer!

And CBS already had Ohio showing Zero as having taken over.

Nobody trusts them but Richard Charnin, who uses entirely inappropriate mathematical simulations to prove every election won by a Republican has been 'stolen'.

He is absolutely insane. Need proof ?  http://richardcharnin.wordpress.com/2012/10/17/update-daily-presidential-true-voteelection-fraud-forecast-model/

Updated Daily: Presidential True Vote/Election Fraud Forecast Model

Updated Daily: Presidential True Vote/Election Fraud Forecast Model
Richard Charnin

The 2012 Presidential True Vote and Monte Carlo Simulation Forecast Model is updated on a daily basis. The election is assumed to be held on the latest poll date. Link to this post for the daily update summary. This worksheet contains the weekly polling trend analysis.

The source of the polling data is the Real Clear Politics (RCP) website. The simulation uses the latest state polls. Recorded 2008 vote shares are used for states which have not yet been polled.

10/18/2012
Obama has 297 expected electoral votes and a 87.6% win probability (438 of 500 simulated elections).
He leads the state polls by 48.1-45.9%.
He leads in 12 of 17 Battleground states by 48-46% with 122 of 198 EV.
Romney leads the RCP National Poll average by 47.7-46.7%.

The True Vote Model indicates that Obama would have 54.5% and 358 expected EV in a fraud-free election. Will he be able to overcome the systemic fraud factor?

So who's gonna hack DU with the "All Your White House Are Belong To Us" like they did with the 2002 midterms and Senate?

[Texacon]

Win, lose, or draw, if O'bama had done a decent job this election would never be this close. The DUMMIES need to wake up to that fact.

Maybe those mysterious "Friends of Steve Dawes?"

Thanks, Miskie.
I read a little in the web site. Was interested that the polling is done by "six corperate media giants".
I presume he means ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC and a local Fox channel.

I wonder when he'll discover the truth:

There are no real "average Republican people".  The Republican Party is secretively just the 100 richest guys in the country and no one else.  How do they pull off the appearance of being half of the country?  Easy:

1) Any post you see online from someone claiming to be a Republican is just random words from a secret computer in a remote Siberian hut.
2) if you see a Republican bumper sticker or yard sign, be advised that it is a sophisticated digital optical illusion.  The car or home owner is not aware that their Obama/Biden material is being secretly altered by Karl Rove from his Austin, TX lair.
3) all of those delegates at the republican convention?  They were just average people picked up off the street and hypnotized into thinking they were watching a basketball game.  Think about it.  Why else would it be held at an arena?  These bastards are good.

So much for their new theory.

[Kyle Ricky]

When Der Fuehrer is winning there is no fixing (Even with proof that they are over sampling Dems), and when he is losing, they are fixed. Gee who would have thunked it? I can't wait to hear all the boohooing when Der Kaiser loses. They will be throwing the race card, and fraud card around like crazy.

Is this true? Does CA actually give their EC votes to the winner of the national popular vote?

O might not break triple digits...

They just made that change this summer, over continuing anger over Bush/Gore.  Whoever wins the popular vote in a presidential election, gets the electoral votes.

I suspect there are lots of behind-the-scenes shuffling to undo that law, just like they worked to undo 'Proposition 8'

link here .. http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/state&id=8296767

and one sentence, since I don't know if this source is quotable or not.   "Gov. Jerry Brown on Monday signed a bill that will give all of California's 55 electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote."
