A much bigger problem with polls today than distorted sample sizes is the nature of the samples themselves. As the polling organizations have reported themselves 9% or less of people who are contacted today to participate in polls agree to do so which is far lower than in the past and not only is that not representative of anything from a statistical modeling perspective, it's a self selecting group that frequently takes part with an agenda in mind. Jimmy Kimmel showed a very revealing bit recently when he did interviews in the streets last week asking people who they thought won a debate between Obama and Romney that hadn't even taken place yet. Again and again Obama supporters claimed to have watched, declared Obama won the debate and explained their reasons why he won the non-existent event with DNC talking points. When you start digging into the details of the poll specifics, after you get by the outsized Democrats samples and look at the results it's plainly obvious that tiny minority of people who actually respond to polls are not who they say they are and that polling results are based on faulty samples not only mis-sized ones. The left and the DNC is very active in promoting efforts by their people to participate in polls, misrepresent who they are and try to form opinion rather than measure it. This is why after each of the four debates this cycle the percentages of people in polls who CLAIMED to have watched the debate were so completely out of whack with the results of focus groups who are KNOWN to have watched them and overwhelming showed Romney and Ryan winning them all. It's the same reason the gap between exit polling and actual results has grown wider with each election over the last decade. The fact of the matter is in every poll, no matter who the pollster is, no matter how sound they think their methodology is and no matter how they try to address it the vast majority of those being polled are politically active members of the left and the Democrat Party who seek to influence outcomes by misrepresenting themselves.

Romney's advisers even worked with Obama's to craft the federal version. A: If you believe Mitt Romney when he claims during this campaign that he will repeal this law as President than I can only surmise there is no point it debating any of this with you because you clearly will believe any lie this man will tell to get elected. He WILL NOT REPEAL OBAMACARE he's lying and his past actions should make that crystal clear. B: Even if that were his intentions it wouldn't matter because by the time this is rehashed again and again in the campaign and it's time to vote Obama's campaign team is going to have made sure everyone who's unhappy with Obamacare will see it that way and not be motivated to vote for the father of Obamacare - Mitt Romney. Sorry son, it you and everyone else who votes for and supports Romney for the nomination that are the ones supporting Obama's re-election.

Oh yeah the guys are sooooo disappointed in Obama blah, blah blah ... see how open minded they now they even criticize the Messiah. Of course no matter what Obama's failings are come September they'll all be in line behind Obama supporting, reminding us how critical they were a few short months ago and how even so after thoughtful consideration these open minded reasonable people still think he's the best candidate for the job and we should follow their lead. Honestly people, this couldn't be more transparent and effort and while I can understand how and why it works on your average dim-witted Democrat voter should conservative leaning media be helping them run this scam on they're followers? Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:50:02 +0000 http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/hollywoodland/2012/01/10/belafonte-on-obama-he-doesnt-deserve-a-second-term-lacks-moral-compass/#IDComment261472818 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261462308 What I know is that most polling doesn't gauge opinion, it's one of the many tools the Democrats and their friends in the media use to form public opinion to their benefit. What ever you think the polls say today, means nothing what so ever because shortly after Romney is the official nominee the media is going to start going over his record as Governor on a daily basis to show how far to the left he is on most issues there by allowing the Obama campaign to the right of him on several issues. By the time November rolls around the Republican Party is going to have a much clearer idea of the lefty nut that Romney is and be so disaffected by the realization the Romney is no different from Obama that they simply won't bother to vote. Opinions DO NOT equal votes and in order to win each candidate needs to get people motivated to show up on election day. Obama will have his unions, community organizers and dependent class out voting in full force for the Democrats while gun owners, values oriented social conservative, gun owners and opponents of Obamacare will simply have no motivation to turn out for a man who's record stands in opposition to everything they stand for. You go ahead and follow polls all you want but I'm going to tell you some facts; I'm in South Western PA a very Democratic area that is also socially conservative and votes for Republicans when they offer an conservative candidate. I've been active in the areas politics since 1978 and very active in the Republican Party since I switched to it in 1985. I hear a lot of opinions expressed and I'm telling you that 6 out 10 people I know say they are sitting this election out if Romney is the nominee and another 1 out of the remaining 4 say they are doing the same as I and writing in a candidate rather than vote for either Romney or Obama. At my gun club which I visit several times a week year round and there is universal hatred for Barack Obama expressed constantly for the last three years and the hot topic of conversation the last several months has been this race and I'm telling you nobody, and I mean NOBODY there is voting for Mitt Romney or Obama because they all see them both as an existential and imminent threat to their guns rights. Again, opinions expressed to pollsters DOES NOT equal votes in November.

If Romney is the nominee, which seems almost certain now, the conservative base of the Republican Party will not turn out to vote and it gives Obama his best chance at winning. Even Donna Brazile said yesterday; the DNC sees Romney the "weakest" candidate against Obama. Wed, 11 Jan 2012 13:07:14 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261313846 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261310209 Anyone who believes for a single moment that Mitt Romney is a conservative or even a moderate is dumber than the average Obama voter. Sure he claims to be conservative in this campaign just as he claimed to be liberal when he ran for office in Massachusetts which tells us we can't believe a single word he says on anything. What we can believe however is his record and actions as Governor of that state and no matter how you bend, twist or contort it that record is of a radical leftist no different from Barack Obama in any significant way. I'm a conservative and I DO NOT vote for leftists regardless which party they belong to. Wed, 11 Jan 2012 13:01:48 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261310209 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261307208 Yours is a ridiculous argument. How can conservatives retain power they don't have let alone gain it by electing a radical leftist to office? I know that Romeny's nomination virtually assures an Obama second term but regardless how the vote turns out, even if Romney somehow managed to win there's still going to be a radical leftist in the White House because Republican's allowed themselves to be sucked by Obama's sycophant media into nominating a candidates who's policies are virtually identical to Obama's in every way. Conservatives CAN'T gain power because they don't have a candidate who represents them in Mitt Romney. Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:56:54 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261307208 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261303394 ahhh no we won't and we won't have the House either after 2012. Mitt Romney's nomination virtually assures an Obama second term by virtue of the fact that the Republican base is not going to turn out to vote for the phoney... Which means they won't be voting in congressional races either. Obama beats Romney handily AND Democrats retake control of the House and expand their lead in the Senate. We HAD a chance to take control of the Senate as well as expand our majority in the House but Mitt Romney's nomination pretty much blows that out of the water. Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:50:36 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261303394 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261300678 Nope I personally won't be staying home as I have a lot of good, conservative Republican candidates that I need to vote for in their races for local, state and congress... I just won't be voting for Mitt Romney, I'll be writing in the name of a real conservative. Unfortunately though if/when Romney wins the nomination it won't make any difference what I do as a large portion of the Republican base won't feel the same I do and they will stay home. Mitt Romney's nomination virtually assures an Obama second term, as well as loss of control of the House to Democrats so just get used to the idea and try to take comfort in fact and understanding that it won't make a difference any way since an second Obama term will look virtually identical to what a first Romney term would have. The whole thing is quite a shame you know, the best chance Republicans have ever had. probably our last chance now, to really smash the kook left that controls the Democrat Party and save the nation stolen by the Bob Dole, John McCain, Mitt Romney wing of the party and served up as Democrat win on a silver platter. "And while the rest of the nation was still sleepin' they'll be bidding America goodbye."

Sorry, not buying it for a second. He's a left wing extremist just like Obama, he's not getting my vote and nothing will or can change my mind between now an November. The nomination of Mitt Romney virtually assures Obama wins and the truth it doesn't make a with of difference. Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:34:49 +0000 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment261293425 http://tv.breitbart.com/newt-claims-palin-said-romney-is-the-weakest-candidate/#IDComment260685024 If the party nominates Romney this is one conservative who, along with his wife and two voting age kids, will NOT be voting for him. Real conservatives have no business voting for blue state, leftist loons whether they're running as Democrats like Obama or Republicans like Romney. Newt Gingrich is dead on right, if Romney is the nominee a big chunk of the Republican base and those few remaining conservative Democrats stay home in November because we no dog in a fight between to candidates trying to out liberal each other. Obama wins handily and Democrats regain the House if Romney is the nominee, no doubt about it.

Most of them don't simply misunderstand the Tea Party they simple lie about it because it suits their agenda to do so. Hollywood simply hates middle America and everything it stands for, they mock and ridicule every aspect of in their movies, shows and music constantly. Their hatred of the Tea Party is simply an extension of their contrived view of the majority of working class Americans upon whom they look down on as stupid, ignorant buffoons.

You can try to make nice with them and show them the flaws in their beliefs, it's a nice thing to do for sure, but doing so and assuming a level of honesty and character in these people that isn't there will almost never pay off - you might as well just try to stick your hand into a nest of pit-vipers and try to pet one.

If NBC/Universal or VIACOM want to make it a take it all or none proposition fine I say. I'd gladly dump all their programming if given the chance to make a point.
