Already back down to 5 points and falling fast. Jpeyton and the other leftists really need to keep up these attacks on a pregnant teenager and a woman with more experience than their pres candidate. Only good can come from it. :laugh:
Back up to 8 points and rising with every piece of news that comes out about Palin.

I grow weary of this. I exit this "conversation" with... you cite CBS news?! You have better arguments from Gallup, Zogby, and Rasmussen... and you cite CBS news? Hell Gallup has him up 8. Cite them instead. Rasmussen has him up 6. Zogby hasnt updated yet.

Anything but CBS... just a friendly suggestion.



 
Even though the RCP average doesn't really make sense (the polls are different in what they include--leaning or solidly supporting, so an average isn't necessary), it is the most fair thing I can think of to cite. Cherry-picking polls really doesn't prove anything because anyone who disagrees with you will use your pick of a poll as the starting point and ignore whatever else it is you have to say.

I dont know if that was aimed at me or not, but I dont dispute Obama being up in all polls... just that citincg a CBS poll seems... eh... when there are so many other polls that anyone would consider more credible that provide the same results.

Just not a CBS fan I guess 🙂

Aimed at everybody because you get these comments trying to make a argumentative crushing blow but they come from both sides using whatever poll that day gives them the biggest lead or smallest deficit, depending who they support. The other side doesn't give a shit about it because they know it is a cherry-picked poll so we're better off just using the average.

humm interesting... so what experience did Clinton have when he was elected President other than being governor of Arkansas?

Shhhhh. Criticizing Bill Clinton is anathema to liberals. Prepare for your witchburning!

It's funny to see that CNN lady falling over herself trying to explain away Obama's egregious lack of experience by comparison to the other party's VP pick. When you have to compare your dem P pick to the rep's VP pick (and fail the experience test), you know you are in a world of hurt.

Bahaha, no less, reported on the Clinton News Network.
