Scotty Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Pollster John Zogby: "Is McCain making a move? The three-day average holds steady, but McCain outpolled Obama today, 48% to 47%. He is beginning to cut into Obama's lead among independents, is now leading among blue collar voters, has strengthened his lead among investors and among men, and is walloping Obama among NASCAR voters. Joe the Plumber may get his license after all. "Obama's lead among women declined, and it looks like it is occurring because McCain is solidifying the support of conservative women, which is something we saw last time McCain picked up in the polls. If McCain has a good day tomorrow, we will eliminate Obama's good day three days ago, and we could really see some tightening in this rolling average. But for now, hold on." Interesting, one poll out of a hundred now has McCain ahead. Riff Raff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 At this point in time, it may be fair to say that Republicans are merely putting brave face on the body of a lost campaign. Going down swinging, as it were. All that remains to be done now, is guess the percentage of defeat. I still think no more than 3 or 4 points. "I think, that all right thinking people, are sick & tired of being told that they're sick & tired of being sick & tired. I, for one, am not. And I'm sick & tired of being told that I am."

Aquacide Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 how does mccain win without VA, NC and PA. 30 or 40 in state polls in each state can't all be wrong can they ?

Aquacide Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 yes they can be wrong that makes no sense. I understand national polls being out - 2,000 out of 60 million voters, but all the local ones are calling different voters in the same state...

ken r Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Talk about swaying votes. That's the implicit intent of polls. Which is why whenever I've been asked (numerous times this election) who I'll be voting for, my response is, either it's none of your business, or whomever represents the communists. Shuts down the pollsters real quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassNuts Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 The only poll that matters is the one voters will create on Election Day. Remember, Dewey beat Truman too. CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
