10. check out this humorous post from over on the other side:

This is my take on what is happening now. If I am right, I think the first thing that has to be done to prevent rioting is to get Rush, FoxNews, Hannity, etc. to shine a bright light on these over-weighted polls. The fewer people surprised by Obama's upcoming defeat, the better.

If you agree with my assessment, start contacting all of the fair and balanced news outlets you can and get them to question the current poll weighting scandal.

They need to follow the some simple guidelines when they report on poll results, some of which are provided by DJ Drummond at Wizbangblog.com, posted here:

But most important of all, they need to grill the pollsters on the logic behind their polls' Party ID weighting. They need to ask the pollsters, Are you now adjusting the Democrat over-weighting back down because of all the fake ACORN registrations that are coming to light?


How can they vote if they don't exist? I am sure if Mickey and Minnie Mouse show up, they would have to have photo ID. Damn, these people are dumb.

another one:

This is going to be a rout for McCain. The MSM will not poll seniors like in 2000 and 2004 because they already know that since seniors favored Hillary over Obama by large margins, they will vote for McCain before Obama.

They are not polling single women nor are they are not polling blue collar whites. These are the moderates Obama needs to get over the top.

Using the Automatic 10 point rule (The RAT candidate always starts 10 points ahead in the polls), combined with the above information and you have McCain leading by anywhere from 5-15 points. Now add in the ACORN factor as well as the other negative Bambi ads and what you have is a rout.

Wonder why McCain isn’t fighting back? The quickest way for McCain to lose this election is for the racial card to be played. IMHO this is why he is staying on the outside tossing firecrackers rather then nukes. Each small attack keeps Obama on defense while each Obama attack makes Republicans stronger and makes Independents feel like the MSM has it out for McCain and Palin.

It’s a good strategy. The Conservatives are on board with Palin and McCain appeals to the Hillarycrats.

Stick a fork in Bambi. He is done.
