People who are giddy right now over exit polls. |
|
Do so at their own peril.
I will be waiting for the actual returns.

6. I'm not giddy, but I remember NH. |
|
I remember the exit polls showing a big night for Clinton and wondering if they were true.
Sure enough...
My hope? If exit polls were right then, maybe they're right now?

Apparently you don't remember New Hampshire. |
|
Obama should have won New Hampshire according to the exit polls. :rofl:

11. You're not getting it. |
|
Go read the exit polls from that night. While they had Obama up, his lead was VERY slim. In fact, some exit polls were talking about a tight race.
Now while Clinton won, it showed there was a dramatic shift from what the polls stated. The exit polls picked up on that 4 or so hours before the polls eventually closed there.

16. I'm not trying to sell anything. |
|
Obama was up by 10+ in most pre-primary New Hampshire polls.
The first exit polls showed Obama in a dead heat with Clinton.
The shift toward Clinton was picked up by the exit polls.

7. You should be watching the atrocity that is the MSM coverage and taking notes. |
|
This is a preview of the crap we will see in the general election. McCain is a Maverick, indeed!

19. I can't watch that stuff... |
|
anymore. I'd rather wait for the results as they appear live. But then again, it seems everything that is said by the talking heads ends up here anyway. http://www.shelbystar.com/sections/election-news/live-results/

15. They Didn't Exit Poll Those Who Voted Early |
|
The real results won't be in until tomorrow...once the delegates are appropriated. My fun is always checking the specific vote totals in the local paper. The fun tonight is watching the clueless.
