Polls are crap and should all be dismissed.

People should read what these guys offer and watch them debating and so on, not base there vote on who is ahead in the polls.

My £2 worth.

Intellectual thinking at it's best...absolutely Steed, following the polls like lemmings to the sea is ridiculous.

But interests who donate big money WILL take heed of these polls. And that will cost McCain.

PD

Well if intellectual thinking placed a candidate in the White House then what is Bush doing there?

Like it or not, polls drive the 8 'o'clock news and get you noticed and get you elected. Good or bad, that is the real world of politics.

How did Bush get in the White House? Did you take a look at the other candidates during that campaign or just the polls? I guess the polls put Bush there. Polls mean squat to me and those that surround me daily. No way, shape or form is a poll real world politics. The real data is gotten from the voting machines is the real world politic. Polls are nothing more than to swing those that just go with the flow. That is real world stupidity IMO.

15 points is a big lead, but who did they ask?

The Los Angeles Times is 90% owned by LDS (Later Day Saints) and you can't trust them.

Refer previous Tchocky post, it is NOT only LA poll but right across the board of ALL polls. Yea, I understand - it hurts.

I guess that is not across all polls now is it? Hmmm... What happened to everyone saying this? I only see 2 that are double digit. The rest are inline with a 3% to 6% difference - probably well within the margin of error, and since repubs are typically the ones you see with no comment, figure it out.

Obama is just a toy for Omphra Winpray. :p

He'll lead us down a road that will go nowhere but to diaster.

McCain will probably use Condeleesa Rice as his trump card as VP and get the black and the women vote.
