My Teacher went to Princeton & he thinks the Polls are rigged

[corarose]

I am pretty sure he is a Democrat because he keeps using the fake media polls as examples of propaganda and he is a Math Teacher with a Doctoral Degree.

We had to print graphs from the INTERNET and I took some off of DU in and he loved them.

He said that there is no way that Bushes poll numbers are real and he believes that they are lower. He explained to us that they will keep going on a poll until they get the amount that they want.

Example if they want the poll to read 90% for Bush they will keep going until it hits that amount but it's practically impossible to get 90% and that is why he is for sure that the polls are all wrong.

He said that the Gallup Poll use to be a part of Princeton but it no longer is.

He then started talking about BBV and I started to think that he might be on DU and I don't even know it.

He talks to his Princeton Friends and they also agree that Bushes poll Numbers are false even at 40% they would be wrong.

1. Wow I went to the bathroom and thought the same thing.

Funny how the can makes me think of Bush and Co.

2. my gut feeling has been he has to be low 40s or high 30s...

he is even losing his base. Example: my Mother-in Law, 74 yrs. old, life long repug, faux news watcher, said she would NEVER vote for hime again. All her little lady friends too! :)

4. When Southern mill owners

all of whom voted Repug last time have publically shown they won't be voting that way again (from an NPR story Morning Edition Friday). They are going so far as to make sure their workers are all registered voters, are going to give them literature "when the time comes" and will make sure each one gets to the polls to vote.

bush is in deep doo doo

5. I keep hearing more stories like this.

Anecdotal to be sure but encouraging none the less.

NPR did a good story the other day (Thursday?) about this very subject. I forget the name of the piece but in essence they were interviewing people who lived in a town dependent on manufacturing jobs. They interviewed a younger guy, bush voter, who said he would have to think long and hard before voting for Bush again. His main reason? Bush was not being upfront and forthright with the public.

Honesty and trust are going to be huge issues for us next November.

3. He's probably right

If Bush's polls are at 20%, how will they explain the victory he'll get in 2004?

The BBV "conspiracy" is one that I believe to be true. Fake polls put Bush about even with a Dem candidate. If folks believe the polls they will be less inclined to question a close election.

6. well of course they are rigged

but when they steal the election it has to be BELIEVABLE; hence, the constant polls that will never show less than evenly divided.

7. The bought and paid for republican media crooks

Know what is going on with BBV and they will keep those numbers up so that their boy will get back in and give them their payoff.
