That would pretty much account for the discrepancy between Pew and, well, pretty much everyone else. Apparently they've been polling Michael Steele and Condoleezza Rice over and Over again.

It was as though someone had thrown a light switch...dozens of African Americans can't wait to vote for the Republicans next month. Hispanics too! All because the President hesitated before he gave thoughtful answers. Whodathunkit?

The episode is "Monsters Are Due on Maple Street".. remember it?

Indeed, whipping people in to a state of panic can be a very powerful weapon.

Think about it....It really seems like they are taking turns ...one day good news next day bad news...I eally never pay attention to the polls until a week or two before election day...But this election it's different...Possibly they wanted a horse race so bad, it looked like Obama as getting to far ahead people were losing interest in polls. Who knows but they now have the horse race...more people are reading/following the polls..Manipulation gone mad...
