last night didn't change anything that would help him either and that by itself might have hurt him. I think Bernie's done.

The media reports will have more effect and they seem to be more leaning towards Clinton doing well.

Football instead? And of those the small number who will exceed their typical 3 minutes of news a day to listen to an ABC summary of the debate? You bet.

LOL, though, in case you were joking.

Are those informing voices whispering, "Go, GOP!"?

I would love to believe as you do. As it is, I need to take frequent looks at what today's conservatives have become to be reassured of how much better citizens we are at our worst.

I suppose you believed that Jim Webb had 13% nationwide after Gravis had him at that in a poll? Give it up, Gravis is total crap.

But don't worry, they have plenty of other absurd polls. Why are most of their polls only 1 day anyways? Good pollsters usually have at least 3 days.

They did have a poll from early Oct. that had Bernie ahead in NH. Was that a "shitty poll" as well?

It's really just about the trend of the aggregated of recent polls. Clinton has been gaining ground after her good month in Oct. It only makes sense that most polls now would have her in the lead in NH, and they do. Gravis is just 1 of 4 recent polls that see it that way. You can whine all you want.

Gravis is shitty no matter who is ahead. The other polls show a close race.
