Fox News has a national poll tonight. Do not believe the outcome

Warning: Media outlets will treat Fox as a reliable pollster even though it had Romey and Obama tied in 2012 (Obama won by 4%) http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/us/general_election_romney_vs_obama-1171.html#polls

Do not panick if Fox pretends Trump is tied with Hillary or even ahead. Fox is supposed to pretend Trump is doing better than he's doing.

To be fair, it is a molova specialty, and he's the only nominee in the category. It's a bit like nominating Dwayne The Rock Johnson for a "cufflink straightening" award.

I schooled you a few days ago for not making sense and here you are, making no sense again.
You just said that I want you to panic, because I expose Fox News as a fraud ahead of time.

I guess making no sense is the new "making sense".

You get the paranoia award.

You defended IBD the other day when I criticized it.
You even refused to say whether you think IBD will be accurate this year.
And today your beloved IBD has Clinton and Trump tied.

You want people to panic and i don't, yet you pretend it's the opposite.
Someone here even called you a bully. Make sense. Don't get things backward. And be less paranoid.
