  • Yet another wacky SUSA poll in VA. What is going on with them? 25% of the AA vote voting for McCain? Really? Implausible, since 88% of AA voted for John Kerry

  • I'd be more circumspect in relying on the RCP (RealClearPolitics) polling averages.
    RCP is selective in choosing which polls to use for their averages. Take for example VA which according to the RCP latest average is now 0,7 in McCain's favor. This average includes a poll done by
    VCU 05/12 - 05/18 852 RV 44 36 McCain +8.0

    But the same average does not include the following poll done by
    SurveyUSA 05/16 - 05/18 600 RV 42 49 Obama +7.0


    How bizarre. I've been following RCP for a while, this latest poll manipulation confirms to me, and many others, that RCP is a republican leaning site

  • Here guys, I know is off topic, below is a just released poll for the NJ Senate race. Recent polls, especially Rasmussen, showed a tighter race.

  • I found a great website that list the current polls and does a good job with statistics, the comments there are also intelligent and less vitriolic.

  • Jindal sounds a really nice and intelligent man, the fact that he is a republican, leads me to believe that he himself, is possessed by demons and is need of exorcism.
    Let us call the High Priest, quickly......
