Oh, look at that. Rasmussen's Clinton vs Trump poll swings six points back to Clinton...in one week

[Godhumor]

From 37-42 (Trump +5) last week to 40-39 (Clinton +1).

Major reason for the change? Clinton now supported by 75% of the black demographic vs 57% last week.

And that should tell you exactly how seriously you should take the Rasmussen weekly tracking poll.

1. Rasmussen? Really?

A Republican poll that no one takes seriously?

[Godhumor]

2. Oh, Berners were all about Rasmussen last week. N/t

[SFnomad]

6. It swung in the wrong direction this week .. so under the bus it goes n/t

3. Rasmussen probably has as it's purpose to lure people into supporting

the Republican with the fake threat that the 'herd' is moving in that direction. Probably involves fractals that people have internalized from observations in actual herd animals and flocks of birds. It may work better on country folk.

[Godhumor]

5. The implication that more black people support Trump than Bernie makes me laugh

But, man, did that Trump +5 Rasmussen poll last week get a lot of play here.

7. Last week it was gospel .. this week it has bus tracks all over it n/t

4. They've always been a joke, haven't they? Wasn't that the bunch that Karl Rove was relying on

to bring it home for Romney? "Yer gonna win OHIO, Mitt!"

The idiot didn't even bother to write a concession speech...the nervy shit had FIREWORKS all ready to go over Boston Harbor--permit and everything! LOL!

Ah, Rasmussen....! The "Garbage In/Garbage Out" of pollsters!

8. Rasmussen is not a good pollster

That's all that needs to be said.
