NPR Poll: "Too close to call."


Posted: Oct 30, 2012

Funny enough, the next article was "How to read post-Sandy polls," which basically states you can't trust any of the polls now, being as 10-15% of the population aren't participating.

I would not base my hopes for the future on any given poll. They are skewed by whomever is conducting them. I don't pay attention to skewered polls.

CNN Poll Shamefully Skewed. De-skew The Poll And It'sSep 11, 2012
The campaign to mislead the public, discourage conservative voters, etc. is underway, full bore. Do NOT believe ANY polls.  Think for yourself - and VOTE, regardless of any polls that might suggest that Obama has this sewn up.  The DNC had a disastrous convention and they're also trying to make that look like the best thing since conventions began. (You can tell from the desperation of his campaign strategy that HE knows he doesn't have it sewn up.) ...

We heard we were getting snow yesterday. This is Georgia. We might have had just a light coating but this is the issue. We have ice. No one that I know of drives good on ice. Near the Atlanta airport this morning there was a 21 car pile-up. Our interstates seem to be ok, they have had gravel and sand put out but our secondary streets are the issue here.

From a N.Y.
