now do I have to stop coming to DU as well until Nov 9th?
The Polls this close to the election are all bogus and MSM Cable news wants to make this a horse race for ratings, greed and ad money. So over a week or so ago I stopped watching cable news shows and stopped looking at poll numbers. Both were making me crazy. I took to reading, watching entertaining programs on TV and puttering around the house on all sorts of need to do projects.
And now look at the posts around here - they paint two very different pictures:
1, The race is tightening and Trump is making a surge and will win
and
2. Hillary is going to win this election on Tuesday by a landslide
It is either one or the other but we're seeing both such posts here at DU.
Which to believe?
Why is DU parroting the same crap as MSM & the polls?
I give up. I surrender.
Do I have to stop coming here to DU now until Nov 9th as well?
