Rasmussen Tracking Poll [Obama vs McCain]

[minionofmidas]

If you agree, then what are you complaining about?

No-one's advocating meeting Bin Laden, the argument is over to meet with people like Adjeminihad etc.

See, but I put Adjeminihad in the same category as Osama.

Which is particularly amusing given that Ahmadinejad doesn't really even have any power within Iran.

That's the one thing he and Osama Bin Laden have in common!

How many days in their tracking poll?

[minionofmidas]

Someone create a longterm graph, for both pollsters. I guess it exists to a statistically significant degree - though not as strongly as certain people on this thread make it out, obviously - but I'd prefer to know for sure.

[minionofmidas]

Well, this certainly isn't good.

[minionofmidas]

Ah, hadn't checked this one yet when I posted over on Gallup.

[minionofmidas]

"Can we please have some different news during my campaign please?" rarely goes over well. Of course, it might be forgotten after the debates - I suppose McCain should just be happy this whole banking mess plus the suspension freakout didn't happen three weeks later.

Romney is just as corrupt as Obama.

Facts?  Oh, there are none?  Surprise!

What are you angry about? He just called Romney a shining beacon of cleanness by Republican standards.

Joe Democracy is one of the good guys aka Gravel fanboys. That's not a secret.

[minionofmidas]

Very true. You would be shocked by the amount of times at work I've heard McCain called a "cracker" and Palin called "a stupid whore".

Where do you work that it's appropriate to call someone a whore?

McDonalds.

No. States and me are the only people on this forum, AFAIK, that actually do work for a living. Which explains it though.

			samp goes tom	samp went today
Obama	50.48%	(50.87%	52.07%	52.14%	51.46%)
McCain	45.00%	(44.64%	43.51%	43.92%	44.24%)

Sam - can you please explain which of the numbers is which:

1) 50.48%-45.00%  (3-Day Average?)
2) 50.87%-44.64%  (Wednesday sample?)
3) 52.07%-43.51% (Sunday sample?)
4) 52.14%-43.92%  (Monday sample?)
5) 51.46%-44.24%   (Tuesday sample?)

Current 3-day average, previous 3-day average, etc. There are no single-day samples in that at all.

Al: Uh... Sauron is not running.

Yeah, he's term-limited.

[minionofmidas]

So in other words that Lunar predicted and J. J. mocked him for is happening?

Wait and see.

[minionofmidas]

When did Republicans start concerning themselves with facts?

Do we have any left wing posters here under 1000k posts who aren't trolls?

A million posts?

The answer to States question is no.

Thank you.

[minionofmidas]

what kind of checks do you suggest?

This one?

[minionofmidas]

You said you wanted your question answered. You didn't quote your own question, so I requoted it for you.

[minionofmidas]

Isn't "spreading the wealth around" the basis of socialism?

No, not really. It is about owning the means of production.

It's about popular control. Or societal control, if you prefer - not state control. Not traditional oligarchy / people with money / unregulated markets control (not the same thing, but too close for comfort).

Mind you, looking around for a catch-all definition of socialism here, not for my own one.

[minionofmidas]

4 gains in a row by now.

[minionofmidas]

Tuesday - October 28:

Obama - 51 (nc)
McCain - 46 (nc)

Later today, new polling data will be released for Arkansas, Mississippi, Nevada, and Pennsylvania.

There must have been a SHOCKING sample for Obama before - but it *looks* like a blip.

Well that's why they're doing these things as three-days - so obviously absurd samples read like blips.
