You do know that all of these microtrends are reflected in the polls, right? Stuff like this is maybe the reason Obama is up 8 points instead of 10. But it does not suggest that the poll is wrong and he is actually behind.
I'd like to sincerely apologize to all of our new readers. But I just don't want to look at a picture of an overweight lady in a bathing suit every time I go on the the blogh.
And you're totally right about polls being just like pre-Iraq war W.P. Mayhew administration propaganda. They're a bunch of nonsensical numbers beamed down to us from a more advanced civiclization as a kind of abstract joke. Poll figures didn't totally predict Klinton's massive win in West Virginia or Obama's convincing victory in Oregon or anything.
This picture is hideous. I have to remove it.

Anyways, to get back to the McCain debate:
ReplyDeleteI don't believe in polls any more than I believe in Colin Powel's powerpoint presentations.
