It all depends on where the poll was taken. If the poll was done on Market St. in San Francisco or Telegraph Ave in Berkeley then I would believe the poll that has Ozero in front. Alot depends on how the pollster asks the questions. Such as: Question: "Would you prefer Obama over Attila the Hun?" Answer: "Yes." "So you favor the reelection of Obama as the pollster checks the "favors Obama" box. Or "Would you vote for Romney if he announced he was going to declare Martial Law and lock up all people with red hair if he were elected?" It is a "Have you stopped beating your wife?" question. There is no good answer. These are called "leading polls" as the questions lead you into an answer that isn't nessessarly true or accurate.

Perfect example. In the 2004 election, Gores team claimed Ohio was in the bag. They had conducted their OWN polls, plus looked over all the polls done by others and claimed the states theirs. Well, it wasn't so. The problem was that they conducted the polls in Cleveland and Cincinnati, and never went into rural Ohio. They assumed that even if Bush to a small majority in the rural areas, he could over come the vast majority they thought they had in the cities. Well they were wrong on both counts, but WAY wrong about the rural areas. Bush cleaned up on the farm.
Like 058 said, its all in where you take the poll and how.

I have said this before. Ask anyone in Maxine Waters distrinct what they think of congress, and you'll get a huge negative. Ask what they think of Waters, and they will tell you she is the only GOOD person in congress. Well you and I and every other intelligent person knows thats total bullshit.
Its all in who you're asking and what you're asking them.
Ask me, and I will tell you there is nothing wrong with congress that can't be fixed by running ALL the dimbulbs out of town, and tearing up the countries credit card. BUT, nobody has asked me, so that right there tells you the polls aren't all that accurate.

With few exceptions, a poll will show exactly what the paying customer wants them to say. In the case of the mainstream media, they will always slant toward the left and broadcast it to the world when their left slant shows what they want. When reality sets in, such as the actual record of our current president comes into play with the likes of fiscal irresponsibility, gas prices, consumer confidence, unemployment, deficit spending, national debt or our nation's credit rating, they pull up lame and shut down the presses.

I think it's grand that the dims and the media continue to show how obama will win in a landslide over any GOP candidate... With enough of that, there will be fewer sheeple that make the "effort" to vote knowing their guy is going to win with, or without them.... So, keep the bullshit flowing, it just might make more GOP voters get out and vote this asshat out of office....

PS Boy, for some reason it smells better in the PRF section.... Maybe it was the odor of sour water and moss/algae emitting from someone that frequents the still-water under bridges, you know, a TROLL??...

PSS: That's THREE!!!

A perfect example of the accuracy[?] of polls look at the "exit polls" of the last couple elections. Random samplings in various districts had Gore and Kerry winning in a landslide, some by as much as 20%...It was these polls that had Kerry mumbling to himself "I can't believe that stupid son of a bitch beat me"......Read 'em and weep you pompous ass. I bet that shrew of a wife of his, Teresa didn't give it up to him for months or maybe even years for being such a loser.

We are going to be seeing alot more of these polls in the coming months. Pollsters for the DNC will be doing them more frequently as it influences people that are not politically aware and astute. If a certain poll has Ozero up by XX amount of points the dimbulbs take this to mean that if Ozero is favored then he must be doing a pretty good job and since I don't want to be apart of a losing side I'll vote for Ozero too. Polls do have influence to the average douchebag, fence sitter and the people that know nothing about politics but happen like Ozero's smile. Sad, really

You mean poll results like these...

Obama, 50, holds advantages over Romney, 65, on personal
attributes, even as the incumbent remains vulnerable among
Americans concerned that the economic recovery is taking too
long.

If a general election were held now, registered voters
would divide 51 percent for the president and 44 percent for the
former Massachusetts governor.

Obama is boosted by his support among women, a constituency
that favors him by 19 percentage points over Romney. Among men,
Romney has an 8 percentage point advantage.

Obama leads Romney on who would do a better job protecting
the middle class, handling international affairs and terrorism,
and dealing with health-care policy.

On economic issues, a potential match-up between the two
men is more competitive, with Obama holding a 3 percentage point
advantage on who is best to create jobs and Romney holding a 4-
point edge on who is best to handle the economy.

These polls are a perfect example of the media bias and the effect it has on the sheeple.

obama does not work for the middle class, he only says he does. The facts don't lie, the media does.
obama does not have any policies that favor women, he just says he does, and the media, once again, eats it up.
obama's policies have not helped the economy, the media just spins the results in his favor. Like the true unemployment number is somewhere above 12%, but the "spin" says different to make obama look better.
obama's success in the international affairs area are mostly just an extension of Bush's policies. obama's failures are his own, even though the media continues to blame Bush for obama's shortcomings... Iran WILL get their nuke under obama's policies. Something that would never have happened under Bush....
It's all in the spin, and the liberal puke media can sure spin it.....

Not wrong Doc, I just pulled results like the rest of you.

Oh boy! a target rich enviroment...Don'tcha just love those?

1]What the hell are "personal attributes"? Does that mean Ozero washes his underarms and ass when he showers? Or does that mean he knows what fork to use when eating at State dinners? 2] You seem to forget the other people that support Santorum and Gingrich. Those people aren't counted in a Ozero vs Romney poll. These same people would support any Republican candadate over the Big Zero. 3]So ALL women support Ozero's women's policies? And I find it insulting to women that the Dems think that women would vote for Ozero based ONLY on Ozero's womens policies...if he had a policy on women at all....He doesn't ...And the right to an abortion is a state issue, not a Federal issue. But I'm sure you'll bring up the Planned Parenthood issue as well.....OK, It can be viewed that Ozero likes the funding of PP because that gives the government a much higher level of control and provides the leverage needed to push a Pro Abortion Agenda than if PP were 100% privatly funded. 4] If the election were held today Ozero might beat Romney if you leave out and NOT count all the Santorum, Gingrich and Paul supporters who most if not all would support Romney if he earns the Republican nomination. 5] If Romney knows nothing about the middle class then Ozero knows even less. Romney at least has worked in private business, comes from a business background and has dealt with more WORKING class people than Ozero....Ozero's Experence in private business? ......crickets! His closest association to real people is ACORN.....nice! A community organizer is what we need to jumpstart the economy. 6] Ozero is favored on job creation? Gotta laugh at that one since the only job he ever created was his own. He knows nothing about job creation, he has never signed the front of a payroll check, only the endorsement. He has never had to do a 941 payroll tax filing. And his experence with S.S. is even less. ........Have any more pearls of wisdom?
