As DVOR would say: BACK ON THE TOPIC Here are your polls from Real Clear Polling. Apparently the big 'victory' was pyrrhic (for those who were too 'lazy' to get educated like Box, that means you got blown up with your own bomb making the kill) as I had said. Obama came off like the snarky, arrogant, college-professor jackass that he is, and it turned people OFF. Especially the undecided voters who by their nature tend to be non-confrontational to begin with. I hate being one of those "toldyasos" but read it and weep if you have not...
However- that poll has tightene considerable from 6 point to 2 point spread since that final Obama debate victory. So at this stage the libs only should be hoping that electoral math works for Obama and that he is able to win the swing states that provide him with the electoral votes should he lose the popular vote. Of course we know how libs hate when someone wins the pop vote and doesn't win the presidency!

Wow, you really refuted me with that cut and paste.

You "CUT AND PASTE" then complain about a 'cut and paste'. Do as I say, not as I do.

Box, you can type about one sentence and then cut and paste. And FYI- Rand really isn't a poll. I hate to break the news to you. They utilize a panel of 3,500 people and keep asking them questions. The sheer idiocy of asking the same people questions thinking they are all going to "change" their minds is astounding. But if it gets you through the night then I am fine with it.
Nonetheless, I have really noticed a disturbing pattern with your posts. You really have trouble composing your own thoughts in any distinguished or cogent manner without resorting to a large amount of cutting and pasting. I truly believe that your example points to why higher education and literacy is so important to the future of our country. Young people only need to look at "Box A Rox" to determine why they should avoid laziness, and seek out education beyond the 12th grade.

Well said GB!!! Boxy is one of the millions of sheople out there who read, believe and CUT AND PASTE what the lame stream media throws out there!!!! TOO FUNNY!!!

Oh, and BTW- PPP is a democrap outfit. I will "cut and paste their methodology below in tribute to Box:
Quoted Text
If you are a Democrat, press 1. If a Republican, press 2. If you are an independent or identify with another party, press 3. Democrat ........................................................ 41% Republican...................................................... 34% Independent/Other.......................................... 24%
If you want to show the democrap up in a race, poll democraps.
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
If anyone in their right mind thinks that democraps will come out to the tune of 41% and Republicans will come out at 34%, and worse- INDEPENDENTS WILL COME OUT AT ONLY 24%... well, I don't have words for the idiocy of it. Sorry.
In 2008 when Obama was the rage- Democrat turnout was 31.6% of the total and Republican turnout was much-depressed from 2004 (when it was 28%) going down to 25% as GOP voters were turned off by the nominee and believed Obama was a "centrist." So do know what that means? It means that the INDEPENDENT NON-ENROLLED VOTER MADE UP OVER 43% OF THE TOTAL. And THAT WAS IN A YEAR THAT THE INDEPENDENTS WENT OVERWHELMINGLY FOR OBAMA!!!!
Any accurate poll that was NOT TRYING TO PROPEL THE PRESIDENT WOULD REFLECT A HIGHER TURNOUT FOR INDEPENDENTS AND A LOWER TURNOUT FOR DEMOCRAPS! But since PPP is a democrap polling outfit they must help to manage the perception that Obummer is winning!!!

While I don't normally defend Box, the Rand survey IS INDEED A POLL. There are a number of ways to take a poll and each way has its advantages and disadvantages -- as well as strengths and weaknesses. In this case, the polling operation has chosen to follow the opinions of 3,500 voters.
So the real issue is NOT whether the Rand survey is a poll -- because it IS A POLL. The real issue is how accurate, credible and reliable the poll is.

GB In case you haven't noticed, there is a huge discrepancy in the number of Liberal vs Conservative opinions on this board. If I just had to deal with your pitiful posts, I could do a better job of educating you, but there is so much work to do and so little time to do it... I often use C&P to speed the process.
I have noticed a repeating theme in your posts... your posts often contain a sense of self-aggrandizement. You should look into that issue to see if you can correct that flaw.

Actually, I am just concerned that people who declare conservatives as "intellectually lazy" don't have the fortitude or gumption to pursue a higher education themselves. It seems the height of hypocrisy that someone would make a post like that only to admit that they themselves were too lazy to seek higher ed. I like to remind those who chose not to attend college that they should not make blanket assumptions and cast aspersions onto those who were not too lazy to persevere through the process themselves.

It's use of a pre-selective panel puts it more in line with a focus-group. But I will concede on the finer point. As to the utter schite which is their methodology, I assume they left needs to at least know that there is one thing that is constant unlike the falling brick that is the President's approval rating.
As to PPP, I pointed out their flaws. Of course I went back to the thread topic after having very strong data from a multitude of sources that refutes the imbecilic opinion that Box A Rox put forth that Obama scored a huge victory on Monday night when he both came off as a erudite and grimacing jerk, and sealed his fate with the last few undecided voters by being a condescending elitist with a sardonic attitude.
But the bigger issue is: I thought I was "blocked?"
