In checking out the foxnews.com take on Sandy, I see what looks like a new poll over on foxnews.com beneath the main headlines in the politics section.

Republicans senators press Obama admin. again for answers ...
Obama, Romney restart campaigns, try to refocus Americans ...
Romney opens up 7-point lead over Obama, as electoral map ...
Bloomberg asks Obama not to visit New York City

I think to myself "Hey a new biased poll!". So I open that up

http://www.foxnews.com/...

and start reading that RCP is showing Romney is ahead. Well, that doesn't jive with what I saw at 538 or Dr. Wang's site this morning so I check out RCP and see it's about the same as they were yesterday Obama+24 with no tossup states.

So what gives???

Well, wouldn't you know Foxnews dragged up an article published on October 18 and pasted it in with today's current news. Nevermind the accuracy of the ariticle even on Oct 18, but there seems to be no bounds on what Foxnews will do to try to sway the outcome of the election.

No surprise really, but shows that Romey is dumping a boat load of cash he had stashed into battlegrounds. Polls might indicate Obama is ahead, but it's not over until it's over.

"Filings at the Federal Election Commission show that of the $8.3 million Romney Victory Inc. put into the Vermont Republican Party’s federal account this summer, $6.3 million has gone to Ohio, $1.3 million to Pennsylvania and $563,000 to Florida."
...
"Money stored with Republican organizations in the other three states — Idaho, Oklahoma and Massachusetts — that were part of Romney Inc., has also been sent on to battleground states, according to FEC filings."

From the YouGov site:

"YouGov BrandIndex’s entire universe of 1,100+ consumer brands were measured year to year with its Index score, its chief measurement of brand health, which combines the average respondent scores for quality, value, general impression, satisfaction, reputation and willingness to recommend."

Chick-Fil-A?? Really??

No surpirises there I guess. But what else can we tell from the brand list.

Republicans like Fox News just as much as Democrats like Google. I guess Dems like to search for answers and Republicans like to be told. While indies and Dems like Amazon, it's no favorite of Repubs. Could it be that republicans don't read much? Kinda agrees with 4 republican slots being taken up by TV channels.
