For those not in on the joke I offer you this:

On the progressive website DemocraticUnderground.com, DemocratSinceBirth posted the following Sept. 27 in the article This Gravis Marketing Clown Is A Real Piece Of Work: He puts out a bunch of Republican leaning polls in the swing states and then puts out a poll for Washington that shows the president with a huge lead.
