What good are Pundit Polls
After the 2000 elections the MSM decided Exit Polls were not to be published. Why should it stop there. Why can't the MSM just report News instead of trying to make News? Internal polling is one thing. those polls are almost never made public. Why do we need to be bothered with who the MSM thinks will win? I think America would be much better served if they were not allowed Period. They do not help the electorate in any manner what so ever and often lead to much controversy. Eliminate the Polling and our candidates and ourselves would be much better served...Let the ONLY public polls be the elections...
