“We feel strongly that our pre-election polls were accurate on virtually every state. Our predictions on many of the key battleground states like Ohio and Florida were within the margin of error. I thought we captured a trend, but apparently that result didn’t materialize.


“We always saw a close race, and a close race is what we’ve got. I’ve called this the Armageddon Election for some time—a closely-divided electorate with high partisan intensity on each side."

"We didn't mean to screw up as bad as we did, please don't put us out of business."

Just how do you suppose they "screwed up." His polls were scientific and statistically valid. The lesson learned is not that the polling agents are faulty, but that statistics can only measure things with a given level of certainty.

In order to prove they were scientific and statistically valid, you would have to poll someplace outside of strongholds for either party, something Zogby didn't.

John Zogby was exactly right. What he didn't account for was vote manipulation in counties that have ballot-less E-voting machines. It's no secret how the thieves stole our democracy. The real secret is how the mass media is playing off the evident manipulation. The truth will come out, including supporting statistics, soon enough.

Wow, disappear for two days and THAT'S what you come back with? A vast right-wing conspiracy?

Go suck your pacifier, Nbadanallah...

Yes, it's all a conspiracy, even Kerry and McAuliffe are in on it.

Damn Dan, lose with some dignity for once. You're nothing but the laughing stock of this entire board.
