I doubt you have the intellect or education to understand this:

And on MSNBC this morning, Chuck Todd sounded off on the “likely voter”
results that Gallup reports in its "tracking poll":

“[Frank] Newport, editor of Gallup, a good pollster … even has a warning
in USA Today this morning that says don’t believe the likely voter,
follow the registered voter model. They report it anyway. … But the
point is, is that this is — a good polling organization like Gallup,
okay, these guys are in control of the gold standard of polling. They
can’t figure it out. I think this is a warning to everybody that polling
this year is very difficult. … Everything should be taken with a grain
of salt.”

Got that?

The national polls are very flaky at the moment, and have been for a
while. The state by state polls seem a lot more real.

Spin it any way you want. Two days after the announcement of Biden,
into the DNCC, and you are bouncing down,, it's a real good sign for
America...

If McCain wins, and he won't, come see us in a year or two and let us
know how the McCain health insurance plan is working for you.
