Over the past 30-40 years, political pollsters have been trying to either guess the outcome of elections or try to influence the outcome of elections.
Most of the time they say that the Democrats are ahead but the Republicans win sometims by a wide margin. I have always wondered about why they were wrong. I got my answer the other day.
A famous pollster was being interviewed on TV and the host asked him what the polls showed. The pollster gave the Demo's a nice lead in the polls. Then the host asked why he polled only 40 percent Republicans and 60 percent Democrats? The pollster said. "That's because there are more registered Demo's than Republicans, it's called weighting".
My question would have been. Since there has been cases of people being paid to register Democrat by ACORN (One admitted in court to signing 79 registration ballots) and signing up as Mickey Mouse and the Dallas Football team, how can that be accurate? Those people can only vote once or not at all.
I suppose that I am too curious. Boy I wish that I could ask those kinds of questions questions. As of 4:00 P.M. Today I hear that the race is within 2 or 3 points even counting the Dallas Cowboys.
Again I ask please do not hand our country over to the Socialists. Just think, Pelosi, Reed, Obama, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Supreme Court..............................................................you fill in the dots.
