I have to laugh at one of the liberal polling experts on the left, someone over at a blog called Fivethirtyeight. Today Nate Silver shows how statistics, when appropriately rigged, can even delude the statistician: Among the many difficulties that we face in this unique election cycle is figuring out exactly how long one should […]

Liberalism is about to finally die in America. After years of the GOP and the ‘true conservatives’ falling into paralysis and snarking at the middle of America, the Dems got a chance to back up all their rhetoric about being for the average American. And they have completely blow it in less than two years. […]

I thought the Gallup Daily Tracking Polls was bad enough this today (see here), but the weekend polling – which goes to make up the USA Today/Gallup Poll, was even larger than I expected this soon. In one short week Obama went from a 7 point lead to a 4 point deficit – well outside […]

In my mind we are much better off than we were one year after 9-11. At this time back in 2002, as we prepared to challenge Saddam and his ties to al-Qaeda (they existed through Ayman Zawahiri before and after 9-11), we were a nation bracing for the next strike from al-Qaeda. Osama Bin Laden […]

At one point Obidenama had an 8 point lead over McCain in the Gallup Daily Tracking Poll, but now that lead is all but gone (2 points) and there are indications from Gallup that McCain-Palin may come out of the back-to-back convention weeks with a significant lead on Obidenama: Â The interviewing for today’s report […]

Major Update Below The media has lost its mind – at least the sleaze balls over at CNN. They keep trying to find dirt on Palin by going to her sisters screwed up ex-husband. Here is the story at CNN, but there are some elements of this which need to be looked at seriously before […]
