At least they learned their lesseon with the ‘referendum’ on Bush meme. That got them nowhere. I look forward to hearing some new excuse on why the polls were wrong this time. Then just wait for the conspiracy theorists explain the difference between polls and the actual results.

Scare Tactics or Truth?…

Pelosi’s World…. these are their issues. Where is national security? Where is reference to OUR safety? Where is anything on the war on terror, other than “cutting and running” with our tails between our legs….

Glenn Reynolds voted early in Tenn–Said the polls were packed and that poll workers said it was more like a presidential election than a mid-term. HEH

Oh those pollsters…they have a list of questions they initially ask.

Once they find you’re a republican…they’ll hang up.

If you tell them you’re undecided, this really really turns them on.

Once they ask you who you’ll be voting for, if it’s not the answer they’re looking for…it’ll never be recorded.

The polls are a scam…

Don’t waste your time OR give them the answer they’re looking for so we can help ‘em skew those polls.

Why Do Polls Sound Like Dems?…

Mac Ranger has been questioning the polls and the news meme about disgruntled Reps sitting home (if they do, they better not come back expecting a voice at the table – we conservatives will not listen to people who sat and let the Dems take over and de…

Speaking of staying home, I just saw an ad on Fox & Friends this morning made by AARP calling for people “NOT TO VOTE” No kidding! They even refer people to a website called:

dontvote.com

At the very end of the commercial they tell the viewer, don’t vote until you know how the candidates stand on the issues. Sounds harmless enough, right? When you check out the website…they claim that all positions listed on their site are presented by the candidates themselves, are unedited and presented for voter information without comment or editing by AARP. They also present “news stories” about candidates that are ALL slanted and totally worthless for a voter to make up their minds on “the issues”. THEN to top it all off they make a point of soliciting people and funds to advocate THEIR point of view!!! Isn’t the purpose of a voter info site supposed to be for voter info and not to push the positions of the site’s owner? They (AARP) list themselves as a 501 (c) (4) organization…contributions are not tax deductible yadda yadda.

What the hell? Rather than offer its “info” site as a public service, it advocates that people not vote for candidates that don’t support their position (meaning AARP’s position). Real nice! A pitch for funds while telling people not to vote?

I’m so glad I don’t belong to that organization anymore. They do NOT speak for me, nor would I ask them to. Look, I may be over-reacting, but I doubt it. I haven’t retired yet but probably will in the next 5 or so years. Who will take care of me? The government? Don’t bet the farm on it like AARP!!

This broken glass Republican was recently polled. Well, kinda.

I was told it was a political survey.
Q: Would you like to participate?
A: Yes.
Q: Are you a registered voter?
A: Yes.
Q: No more questions then.

With that she hung up.
