Rasmussen daily graph for 3/21/08 - Obama down 1 (45), Clinton up 1 (44)

(Pretend that the 10 and 20 lines are actually 0. Does anyone know how to make Excel label different parts of the axis differently?)

Gallup daily poll will show up here later today: http://www.gallup.com

These Rasmussen graphs are all contained on one Web page at http://www.dvorkin.com/rastrack.html

Thanks :)

[DavidDvorkin]

5. Thank you kindly

Eventually I'll run out of appropriate one-syllable German words to tack onto the ending.

Well, I could turn to the dictionary.

6. I'll kick it too

:puke:

[DavidDvorkin]

12. But my graphs are cool!!!!!!!

:woohoo:

[Breeze54]

14. And unreliable!

:puke:

[DavidDvorkin]

16. My graphs are neither reliable nor unreliable

They're just graphs. They depict numbers that may or may not be accurate.

[Breeze54]

17. Your graphs depict numbers that are not accurate.

That's the Rasmussen way.

[DavidDvorkin]

18. Okay. That's fine.

However, as I've been saying since I started posting these graphs, 150 years ago, if there's a consistent bias, then the trends are still meaningful. Which is why graphs are useful.

15. Is that sum Matlab all up in my DU? :D nt

[TahitiNut]

10. Color me shocked(!) that a RightWing pollster fails to show a trend line in the key graph ...

:eyes:

It's clear Rasmussen knows that far too many are virtually illiterate in analytics of graphs.

[DavidDvorkin]

11. Er, that's not Rasmussen's graph

That's mine. Rasmussen publishes the numbers and I put them in a spreadsheet and create all those graphs.

I could add a trendline to the difference graph if the millions of DUers who eagerly await these posts every day think it would be useful.

13. Gee, Obama's speech really had a huge impact, eh? nt
