Pollsters are full of crap

Motivate Someone

People who believe what pollsters say are the fools they target in the first place.  A dozen years ago John Zogby was a polling wunderkind, today he's a hack liberal pollster, less accurate than a coin flip.  Gallup's another, and today John McIntyre  does Gallup vs. Mason-Dixon in the Senate. What it all shows is things are fluid, one year to another, and on the day after the election most of these people will be spinning away their failures. This is an off year election, which means nobody but the politically engaged will even vote.  Let's see.  The economy is humming, the deficit cut in half, record low unemployment, blah-blah- blah.  When asked, people will say they're worried about Iraq, and  they ought to be, but on balance are they going to bed each night with that in mind?  Hell no.  This election will be decided on who gets the vote out on Tuesday.  Here's my proactive suggestion. On Tuesday call one person who shares your belief in the goodness of America, and invite him/her to breakfast (on you).  Say that you'll be stopping to vote first.  If they tell you they're not registered, say, "Then eat me, you ignorant asshole," and call someone else.  I'm not kidding. Send this video link to any five people, and ask them to do the same.
