13. "Yes, snap polls are bullshit. It wouldn't be a problem, except that people believe them."

Thu Oct 4, 2012, 08:40 AM

Oct 2012

Snap polls are bullshit, but bullshit snap polls are often called out.

Irony: It's not just the uninformed declaring Romney the winner. People who know snap polls are bullshit, who know Romney was spewing bullshit are willingly accepting that bullshit wins the day.

People are willing to overlook substance because Romney walked onto the stages and said any damn thing, rudely interrupting everyone and losing his cool when called on it.
