Silence Is Recorded As Support for Obama

Hmm. If you've been wondering, as I have, how the polls have managed to show Obama ahead while the Mideast burns and our economy sinks, look no further that this video.



Well, that's interesting, isn't it?

Here's another polling thingy for you. Most of the polls we're seeing that show Obama with the lead are oversampled in favor of Democrats. Since they pretty much vote for the Democrat candidate, we can assume that if you ask more of them who they're going to vote for, Obama wins. But if you adjust the samples, Romney is ahead.


Here are the numbers properly weighted:

Rasmussen R+3

Tipp R+2.5

CBS/NYT R+7.7

Fox O+3.4

Ipsos O+3.2

Dem Corps R+0.4

ABC/WaPo R+6.7

WSJ/NBC R+3.7



Average is R+2.2%
