Report Acknowledges Inaccuracies in 2004 Exit Polls

#4  Report says they got it wrong because they interviewed too many Democrats.

No duh.

So why did they interview too many Democrats?

#3  They almost fooled enough... but they failed, again.

Time to remove the "ic" from the Democratic Party. They obviously don't understand democracy - demonstrated in two consecutive Presidential elections. And it's obvious that the IC will be needed for their treatment. We've always had some form of permanently deluded segment in the electorate. It started out as a Royalist faction but has been in transition for two centuries - taking many forms and names. During eight years of Clinton, it metastasized into our very own little Fascist / Socialist / Communist / Tranzi Tumor. A mirror of the coalitions of insanity and failed ideologies which have brought Europe to the brink of collapse.

Chemo is unacceptable - the majority (a democratic concept) of the electorate should not be and will not be punished and sickened for the vile spew of the tumor. No, surgery is the answer - targeted and terrible. The MSM, now a wholly-owned pocket of pus within, will continue to magnify the tumor's suicide siren call, but it will fail, just as it has failed in the last two major election cycles. They never leave their little Blue State Media Centers and live in a constant onanistic feedback loop. Thus they don't have a clue what flyover America thinks, wants, believes in, and will support. Ah, but flyover America gets it - they see very clearly both sides: their neighbors and friends versus the Tranzi media, their vacuous and fucked up Hollyweird "stars", the lie through their teeth legislative fools, and the crass and brazen attempts of a very few mulitzillionaire Kool Aid vendors to literally overthrow the US Govt (the one that was democratically elected - every time, not just this time) -- and they will hand them a defeat, again and again. Because Americans are not onanistic wankers who believe "anything goes".

Most Americans, that majority thingy, have a value system. It's internal, not on some placard or poster. It does not include suicide.

#2  This may seem trivial at this time. However, had the bloggers not outted Rather and had the exit poll results not been proven a farce so early on election day, the results may well have been different.

Personally, I believe both were contrived and well orchestrated to produce a different election day outcome. There should be legal action taken.

#1  What a completely farcical performance by our MSM in the recent election... Tendentious and routine distortions of polling results (Nagourney, NYT) leading up to the election, spiking the Swifties' story, pushing non-stories with forgeries, planting more non-stories the week before the election, and then swallowing completely bogus exit polling data on election day.

Screw these fools. Give us back our democracy.
