MSNBC poll question: "Who do you think will win the election?"
60% say they think Bush will win. 27% say Kerry. 13% say don't know.

What does that tell us? Why would only 27% of the people think Kerry has a chance of winning the election? What role does MSNBC and the rest of the media play in this "perception"? The obvious question from this poll is 'why"? But that is beyond their grasp, it seems?
:mad:

2. It would be interesting
To hold that up against a poll asking "Who do you think SHOULD win the election".

Not that polls mean jack and/or shit.

3. 60% of the people
saw the 2000 election and they expect massive election fraud. Due to the fact that no-one was charged with the crimes that led to the Bush* APPOINTMENT they have no faith in the Government doing the right thing.

5. the meme influences the perception, which influences the
'murkin sheeple.

Get out there AND FIGHT. Smear the bushies with every damned thing we've got. Do not relent. We can still win this thing dammit!

7. I think it also shows the democratic morale suffering...
which could mean they're thinking "I may as well stay home." I think it means we need action! We need to keep up morale and get voters to the polls!

9. Bingo !
You got it! Some researchers are indicating this may be the largest turnout ever. Never good news to Repubs.

10. What it tells us is...
1.) The poll has been freeped.

2.) On-line polls are useless. Current technology allows for multiple votes, if you know how to properly clean your browser and erase cookies.

3.) People who participate in the above mentioned activity have way too much time on their hands, lack a real life outside of giggles and shit, and aren't actually pounding the pavement to stir up REAL voters.

4.) We need to ignore the polls and actually do the work that will get us a real president in office.

My name is Robin, and I approve this message. Get to work!
