What you've been told is not accurate: mid-term election edition



Excellent DailyKos article from pollster Charlie Cook about how the poll numbers have been skewed to make it seem like a GOP landslide is imminent. Why would the GOP want to fudge pre-electoral numbers? Simple, Americans like winners and want to back a winner. Give them the impression that Obama is dead in the water, and a fair number of sheeple will say "yeah!" and follow.

The more pertinent question is "why is the media blindly reporting polls instead of doing their own journalism?".

Our media sucks.
