They are too willing to stay home when they think they have an election in the bag or it is out of reach of winning. <br /><br />Republicans could become more energized. <br /><br />Just a thought...Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02467510776931664234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10276952.post-32579121210983330982011-05-12T10:30:51.467-04:002011-05-12T10:30:51.467-04:00What goes up must (and will) come down.

So, the Obots and their MSM partners can celebrate all they want, but that number is going to drop like a rock when the elation over Osama's death is forgotten. It will be the prices at the gas pump and the high unemployment numbers that will slap them back into reality. So...let them jump for joy over their skewed polls, it won't last long.

They do this to make their results more reliable. A straight random poll is good with larger samples, but with only 1001, I don't think you can get a reliable result without stratification.

What if their random sample turns out to be 90 percent GOP? Or did I read that wrong?A.C. McCloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04961702447997409190noreply@blogger.com
