I can't wait to see just ONE valid indicator.

What is really troubling to me, is the 2 polls released. Likely voters: Romney 49-48. Registered voters Obama 49-46. Why do I get the feeling that no matter who wins they will point to their final poll and claim to have gotten it right. lol I think this organization has lost credibility of late.
All they'll point to is the LV poll. The community won't let them get away with anything else, and Gallup knows not to try it.
Polling is a maddening pursuit (there's a reason I talk about it instead of doing it). After all this BSing for MONTHS, think of how easy this would be to fake. Yep, I totally just talked to 750 likely voters. Looks like it's going to be 49%-49%, +-4%. Oh, and I'm only 95% sure that's right.

Secret Service attention fails to dampen violent Twitter comments

October 23, 2012
Despite the issue garnering a significant amount of media interest as well as the attention of the Secret Service, Obama supporters continued their threats to riot and assassinate Mitt Romney if Obama loses in the aftermath of last night’s presidential debate.
As we reported last week, Twitter has been flooded recently with violent comments from Obama supporters. The increase in volume of the comments seemed to coincide with Romney’s poll numbers edging higher against Obama.
Not only have Obama voters been making open threats that they will riot and cause mayhem, they have also been caught making direct threats to assassinate Mitt Romney, prompting the Secret Service to announce that it was “aware” of the threats and would “conduct appropriate follow up if necessary.”
Despite the fact that the media reported extensively on threats made against Obama prior to the 2008 election, their silence on the threats made against Romney has been deafening. Indeed, the act of a few old guys hanging up empty chairs in reference to Clint Eastwood’s RNC speech garnered substantially more coverage and concern from the press compared to hundreds if not thousands of tweets threatening violence against Mitt Romney.
Americans who simply display political signs expressing opposition to Obama’s policies have been treated as potential violent threats by authorities in the past, and yet not a single Twitter user has faced retribution for making direct and sometimes graphic death threats against Romney.
Leftists routinely cry foul and attempt to demonize conservatives as violent extremists whenever online rhetoric gets heated, and yet when their own engage in even worse conduct, their behavior is absolved and the media is disinterested.
Before the Secret Service announced they were investigating the threats, Obama front group Think Progress attempted to imply that the whole story was somehow a racist contrivance dreamed up by the Drudge Report and Infowars.
Here are just a selection of tweets from Obama supporters threatening riots and violence during and after last night’s foreign policy debate. There are too many to reprint in full.
If the Secret Service does plan on following this up, they are going to be very busy indeed.

"it's all over the news, but it's not getting a lot of national attention."
Or local attention. Or coverage at all. By anything other than right wing blogs and scraping services that scour right wing blogs. Hmmmm....
And You Tube, what could be more valid LOL Just remember, if Obama wins, add another layer of aluminum foil to
your triangular shaped hat !

Quote: FarFromVegasGee--maybe you need to have Toby Keith and a keg of PBR at every polling station to get the trailer parks to vote, as long as we're being stereotypical.
HEY!!!!!
I like Toby Keith and PBR! In fact, Toby Keith is one of only four country singers I do like.
EvenBob, yes they still make PBR, bought a 12-Pack yesterday, in fact. I was detailing the car yesterday evening, so good excuse to drink a few!

So who are the other three?
I just said that because my husband's partner is black and we were joking about how I went to the Black Eyed Peas concert and she went to Nickelback. Your color doesn't always correlate to your taste in music! (And I went to BEP because my s-i-l had free tickets and didn't want to go but her daughter did so I volunteered to go deaf and chaperone.)

Garth Brooks, Travis Tritt and Faith Hill.
It's cool, I take crap from just about everyone I know for my affinity for PBR. I like almost every beer out there, though, to varying degrees. I used to be a complete beer snob until I tried PBR and really enjoyed it, actually. I would say that the only beers I don't like are anything by Anheuser-Busch, with exception to Busch Original and anything made by Coors. I even like St. Pauli Girl!

So it drew 18,000 in a venue that holds 18,500-20,000 and it's half empty? And "exactly the same" concert could magically hold 80,000 last year?
No wonder America has trouble with math.

And a picture from when he's actually there on stage doesn't show many empty seats. News story. I suppose if you take a picture of a venue while it's still being set up you'll have sparser attendance than when the event is actually taking place. Gotta love that Breitbart sense of humor!

In 2008 it was 2 days before the election. More people are free on sunday than monday? What? Logic and facts exist? If you can't make your point with the truth, you should just stop trying.
they filled in 2008. Like I said, just sad..
Nate Silver has Romney's chances at 8%, yes, that's eight percent. I think Mitt is having a sad right now.Quote: BuzzardSad will be Mitt tomorrow night. Really, really SAD !

Really? No one cared? That's just freaking stupid on their part for not caring.
Voter fraud and intimidation are wrong. There is a Republican here in Texas who was on the ballot before it was discovered he may have voted in two different states in the last election. He has not denied it and has not answered questions about it, so I assume he is hding something (though he still has the right to a fair trial, this is my vote and not a court of law). I will not vote for him and I have informed everyone that I know of the accusation.
I'll make it plain and simple--if you are okay with voter intimidation, fraud, voting twice, etc.--you are wrong. It doesn't matter whether you are a D, R, or somehting else.
People care more than you think about stuff like this...

Another idiotic statement. There may be millions of people that don't support President Obama, but there aren't millions of "angry white men" any more than there are "millions of angry black men". There are SOME of each but there are a whole lot more responsible people of both races that are worthy of more respect than being lumped in with the idiots of all races.

Not quite sure what that is supposed to mean. So are you also saying that if a guy in a sheet stood in the door with a club you would be OK with that? Just asking.
Or are you more of the type that thinks a Black Panther in the doorway is no big deal but God forbid you have to show ID to vote? Again, just asking.

It was more just a dig on the fact that only angry old white men watch FOX News.

The point was that it doesn't do the black panthers any good to act when the only people watching are Fox News. All it'd accomplish would be to fire up the far right - not exactly friends of the panthers.

I guess we just like fair and balanced news reporting.
BTW: what do the angry black men and angry black women watch? Or do you just make derogatory comments about white males?

You like to delude yourselves that what you're watching is fair and balanced.
I honestly have no animosity towards FOX News. I think it is an incredibly effective media arm of the Republican party. I just wish they could come out of the closet and admit they're in the tank for the right. MSNBC has no qualms about admitting their biases.
And angry black men watch MSNBC, I would assume...
Quote: KeyserWhat I don't care for is the blatant in your face racism of the Black Panthers. Can you imagine the fallout if those men would have been KKK members?
So you equate the Black Panthers with the KKK? You think they're both equally detestable, that they've committed an equal level of horrendous acts over the years?
Quote: ams288

Good god! Why would they ever admit it? Right now, they're actually able to convince some people that they aren't slanted. As the media arm of the Republican party, that gives them an incredible amount of leverage. All of that goes away if they admit what they're doing.
Quote: ams288So you equate the Black Panthers with the KKK? You think they're both equally detestable, that they've committed an equal level of horrendous acts over the years?
They are equally detestable. You ever hear some of what Black Panthers say? The Black Panthers are a racist, violent group.
Quote: 24BingoWelp, since the people I can find with actual relevant facts rather than rally attendance or football games are split between "Obama's probably going to win" (RCP, every last line) and "Obama's definitely going to win" (Silver; I've got a different little pool going elsewhere banking on him leaning right), I've put my money where my mouth is. About 31 dollars now ride on Obama winning.
Oh, those silly little things are what give me something to talk about with EvenBob. He admitted the only casino game he plays is roulette and there I've got nuttin'. So we banter about nonsense instead.
I hope your 31 bucks bring some friends home to you! ;)
