It's That Time Of The Campaign Where The Polls Will Now Become Close.....

It's in the best interest of the poll taking companies and the MSM that any of the polls that will be reported on look like things are close between the President and Rmoney.

The closer the race is - the more polls the parties will be ordering up to see what's going on. MSM will create the picture of closeness and create a aura of suspense as to what the outcome of this election will be. It is in their best interest to keep it close so they are able to get more people to watch their drivel. A race where it looks like one person is running away with it isn't interesting and people won't be glued to their TV sets to see what happens. Folks - it's cliffhanger time in this soap opera reality show that will be fabricated by the MSM and the Poll Conducting companies.
