Throughout this election nothing has annoyed me more than polling.
Especially, unnecessary non shocking polls, like yesterday.
A freaking poll of Illinois ??? Illinois??? WTF ??
Why poll a state like Illinois?
Rasmussenreports headline
No Surprise in Illinois, Obama Winning Big !!!
Illinois 56% 36% Research 2000
Illinois 56% 40% Rasmussen
They go on to say the following
No surprises in Illinois as the home state Senator Barack Obama remains comfortably ahead of his Republican presidential rival John McCain. The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of voters in the state shows Obama attracting 56% of the vote while McCain earns 40% (see crosstabs) . Those results are little changed from last month when Obama held a fifteen point advantage.
Thuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu !! I could have told you that without using a poll.
Obama’s is viewed favorably by 66% of Illinois voters while McCain earns positive reviews from 53%.
As for the running mates, 63% have a favorable opinion of Delaware Senator Joe Biden while 50% say the same about Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.
You don’t say 66% wow.
If it is no surprise why poll the damn state, is a waste of money and freaking time.
Second polling a state like Utah................Utah??????
And of course my favorite Oklahoma
