Who Will Win?

Um, I'm not sure what you are trying to point out by quoting what Darth Crater asked and not following it up with anything else....

Anyway, I think Obama will win simply because that's what the polls show.

We've been discussing this a bit more over Xfire. Here's his source:

Here's where the author, Dean Chambers, explains his methodology:

Effectively, he looks at everyone's polls, and works out what the percentage of Reps, Dems, and independents voting for each candidate would mean if they matched Rasmussen's results on what percentage of the population belonged to each (instead of what percentage of the ones polled belonged to each). Works great if you assume Rasmussen is unbiased and fairly distributed and all the other polling organizations aren't. I don't particularly agree with that conclusion. I've heard they only call landlines and thus oversample the elderly (who lean Republican), but I'm not sure how accurate that is. Anyone else able to weigh in on Rasmussen's reliability?

I like your sense of humor; unfortunately this isn't humor.

@Darth Crater: I can only counter by providing an article that explains the discrepancies found in the various polls that are not atrributed solely by bias: http://www.businessinsider.com/polls-sk ... ats-2012-9

...and then you go edit your post, and replace the quote with the applauding icon...what's your reason, Pi?

[Darth Crater]

It's probably just because there's no deletion option.

That article looks like a well-reasoned summary of the possibilities.

The reason that I dislike Romney is for: Picking a stupid running mate (the GE incident, when Ryan critisized Obama for its collapsE, when it was already gone before '08...anther is Mitt's anti-abortion [poo], the government has NO right to control your body, and how Romney paid 15% tax this year; in CT I pay 28%!
I rest my case.

You're right, the fact that the government is absolutely useless and playing to it's own tune isn't funny at all. But the fact that you're still fighting so spiritedly for one side or the other is pretty hilarious.
