Rasmussen shows Obama at 51%. I don't understand what you mean by tightening?

The noose is tightening around McCain's neck.

Obama widens lead in national poll - CNN.com

It means his lead has lessened in each of these polls since yesterday.

Yesterday:

Rasmussen had Obama +8
Reuters/CSpan/Zogby Tracking had Obama +3
Hotline had Obama +3 down (down from +7 on 10/4)
Battleground had Obama +7

The only major poll that contradicts that the race is tightening is Gallup that has Obama now +11.

three words: margin of error

Three more words: Never trust polls.



Damn things are always skewered to show what they want it to show, i.e. if you have more dems in your sample than republicans it naturally going to shift left.

Lies, Damn lies and statistics.

 

[Stoner]

Everyone wants to think polls are the end-all-be-all confirmation. Sorry, kids, it's not. I'm surprised none of the libs have figured out that different polls show different results for the same thing. Weird, huh?

I bet the most painful transformation of becoming a liberal was when they stuck that needle in your heads and sucked out 3/4 of your brain.

What up Stoner, your right the polls dont mean shit but the look on the republicans faces last night and today sure tell the story. I have watched several Republicans throw Mccain under the bus for his performance last night. Scarborough basically conceded the election even though there is a long way to go. Doesnt look good, you guys better catch Bin Ladin or come up with some of that Republican bullshit or your in trouble.

How many people account for these polls? 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000, 10,000,000, etc.

 

[AllieBaba]

All the polls said that Bush would lose the last election.

They're completely useless, except to get the media all hyped up.

 

[Truthmatters]

Polls have all through history been the best indication of election fraud.

 

[Stoner]

Polls have all through history been the best indication of election fraud.

 

[Truthmatters]

So are you attempting to say that statement is untrue?

 

[paincompliance]

I would guess being a fan and supporter of ACORN you would know all about that huh?

So basically if Obama is up then ACORN is doing a good job?
