Long Room Un_Skewes Polls

[OldLincoln]

We've all heard about bias in polls, and today I came across an article about that bias that lead me to a site called Long Room. How it does it is explained in their article "Long Room Unbiased - Methodology".

I learned about this from this article in ConservativeTribune.com. Doesn't matter which side of the adventure you're on this is important information for consideration and worth looking into.

Looks suspicious to me... And I'm not alone.

Personally I most trust Nate Silver. He called 2008 & 2012.

I don't believe it matters who called what for how many consecutive years. Those were conventional campaigns run by conventional politicians. This year's election is anything but conventional and who knows what buffoonery will be spoken or scandal will be exposed at anytime leading up to it.

[John222]

Your correct. The game is Afoot. As of today Trump is a mess. But the game can change daily depending upon what dumbness comes out of their mouths.

[Tuco]

Agree 100%. And it will only get crazier, nastier, funnier, and more pathetic the closer we get to crunch time.

I have said it all along. None of this matters. Hitlery was anointed pres 8 years ago. It is her turn. Hate to say it but I believe her campaign manager is Donald. He has said more than once "When this is all over, I'll just go back to living a good life." If I am wrong and she doesn't become pres I will appoligize. But not until.

Can't wait for the debates...if it gets that far.

This election should be interesting... The republican party is in a great upheaval. Their old unified traditional base is eroding causing them to cater to all the remaining disparate factions. The party need to do some soul searching, then reformat and change for the future. Right now they just shake the monkey tree every few years and the result are the same monkeys just sitting on different branches. If they loose big time and lose the senate, maybe they will wake up and plot a new course for future.

[deadeye]

I have gotten to the point of believing the traditional base Repubs would rather have Hitlery as pres. That way they can keep their posh, well paying jobs and put on a show of whining, crying and doing nothing as usual. If Trump gets in the monkey tree might be shaken and some of the monkeys will get bruised.

10-4 deadeye....I've been saying it all along and Muggsy tried to tell you too....Donald Trump only ran so that he could throw a monkey wrench in the GOP process and get his old pal Hillary elected president....I don't think that even he thought he would get the nomination but so many people out there bought his line of crap that he is now all we got left....Look for him to really go off the chain and start talking totally crazy now so Hillary will look more presidential.....I'm going to vote for him because I have no other choice but I am going to hate it..Trump has said one thing all along that I 100% agree with and that is the election is fixed and he should know because he's in on the fix.....

[deadeye]

Muggsy was right. He is for sure in a better place but I hope, somehow, he can see it all. I too will be forced to grit my teeth and vote for Trump. This election has reversed an old saying for me. "May the worst man loose!"

I will vote against Trump. What that means is yet to be determined.

[OldLincoln]

Well folks, looks like I was bamboozled once again. The site looks to be phony and has shut down. That being the case maybe the polls aren't as skewed as I thought. Oh well, still will vote against Hillary and her potential judge picks. America is more than a president with term limits, but shaky with a more liberal lifetime tenured supreme court. If we can survive Obama we can survive Trump.
