Enjoy the polls Hillary fans because...
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 04:54 PM by thewiseguy
I do understand a number of polls have came out today showing that there appears to be a late "momentum" or "surge" for Hillary.

Tomorrow we will be looking at hard numbers though. This is a primary season unlike any other and thus the turnout will be very different. As this was proved in California, Missouri, Alabama, and Wisconsin.

All polls have been wrong at some point. I can give you examples were SUSA was wrong and Zogby was right. Or when both were way off the mark.

Before Wisconsin the so called polls showed Hillary gaining on Obama and we questioned if her negative campaign was working. I see the same pattern repeat itself now.

Do not be surprised of Obama takes Texas tomorrow by a decent margin. This could be California/Wisconsin all over again. (Most major polls do still show an Obama lead in Texas today)

Just a reality check!

and lets reunite around one candidate after this is all said and done. We need to win the GE. Thats the goal.

6. Polls showed Obama leading in California
You did not get my point. Polls showed Obama surging past Hillary very close to the elections.

I am saying this very thing could happen tomorrow.

14. Thats fine...
But a democrat will not win the white house unless we get united.

If as an Obama supporter I am going to put aside my differences and problems that I have with her and vote for her in the GE I think you could do the same?

We should not be in Iraq for the next 100 years or have a president who uses Bear research in his stump speeches to underly overspending by the government!

2. Yea, anything can happen
I'm prepared for a Hillary big comeback win and also an Obama victory (which would suck). Go Hillary!

Polls are worthless.
