Another day and another poll to prop up the media’s beloved god-king Quinnipiac conducted a poll that has Obama leading Romney 46-43. It doesn’t seem bad on the surface, but take a look at the sample and you realize they are really trying to prop up Obama.
Only 27% of voters are Republicans? I call bogus on that. In 2010, the exit polls had samples of 35 R/35 D/30 I. That is the model polls should be using. But they don’t because the results may not be favorable to America’s Caligula.
Reuters/Ipsos poll also has a terrible sample. They have Obama leading Romney 46-43. They arrive at that figure by using another bogus sample.
These polling organizations are losing credibility. Clearly their goal is to prop up Obama at all costs and make him appear as a winner.
Fox News is even carrying that dippy Quinnipiac Poll.
They are gaming the polls and still can’t get Obama out of the margin of error. If I were running the Obama campaign I’d be worried about that. Couple that with Obama being behind on fund-raising and you know they aren’t happy.
@ Iron Fist:
Even worse for the Zero. If the WAPO poll yesterday is to be believed, it tells us that if Obama gets the same advantage in demographic voting last seen by LBJ in 1964, he has a decent shot at tying Romney come November. I can’t wait for the Rasmussen and Zogby releases. For some reason, Zogby has been eerily missing this time around, and Rasmussen has been consistent, but no where nearly as active as all of the others.

its that simple
@ coldwarrior:
Of course, who wants accuracy anyhow?
@ Flyovercountry:
Polls are intended to influence public opinion, not measure it. That much is clear. They want to paint Obama as winning to convince the undecideds to go with him.
