    So Ramussen has Romney up by 3
    Gallup has Romney up by 2
    CNN Obama up by 9.

    Who do you think is rigging their poll and lying their asses off?

    we have already looked at some of those...

    abc/WAPO has polls in which they over sample democrats by 7-11 points.

    That is garbage AK and you know it.

  6. They over sample democrats because there are more registered democratic voters jem

    If you randomly call 100 registered voters,more of them are likely to be democrats.Thats not bull shit,that is facts and odds

    Looks to me these polls aren't very accurate, including your favorites.

  8. The Rassmussen poll from April 2008 certainly wasn't and their polls in April 2012 aren't either imo

    You will also find that many of those democrats are dead or named mickey mouse. You have seen those voter registration drives. Some of them get paid by the name.

    if you want to be statistically accurate you measure the anticipated turnout. Which would be determined by looking at past historical turnouts. It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out how to do polls correctly, we do not even need to be debating this.

  10. I disagree.1000 calls,the answers are the results of your poll.No need to measure or anticipate
