@Democrats: Stop blaming this all on Rasmussen. I know it's a biased pollster, but I doubt any polling is going to be particularly helpful in a state like New York. A sample of 500 won't exactly reflect the 19,541,453 people who live in the state.
Please take a polling class if you are in school. By this logic all national polls should be thrown out.
Unless it's of a smaller region? Yes, those are exactly my thoughts. I'd like to remind you of Rick Lazio, btw. Ahead in the polls consistently until the primary, at which point he lost by 30%. Oh, and I'd also like to name Joe Miller. I suppose the polls were accurate there, eh?
It's called logic. I know that concept it behind you, but at least try.
