In fact - didn't Bill project this last week when he talked about Hill as the comeback kid?

You cannot believe the polls half the time because a lot of people lie to polltakers. One elderly gentleman that I know brags about lying to pollsters because, he says, his vote is private and they have no business asking him how he will vote in the first place. I asked him why he doesn't just say, none of your business and he said he used to but decided it was more fun to shine them on.

Hells bells, I could have gone to NH at midnight and voted in every precinct in the state that time permitted, no proof of residency required. Romney is a North East Liberal just like Rudy. Huckabee is a kindred spirit with the Clintons and Jimuh Cawta, McCain is a Kennedy lap dog and all four are disliked and un-electable anywhere outside of Dem. strongholds like Iowa and NH. Ron Paul, simply a bad joke. Thompson would loose support in every conservative state were he to choose anyone other than Hunter as a running mate, from the current crop of hopefuls that is. We would still vote for him, but we wouldn't like it. It is amazing to me that anyone believes any poll contrived by liberals can be taken seriously.

The results of Republican nonbinding straw polls in some Wyoming counties Saturday don’t jibe with the statewide delegate selection results…

“There was no statewide organized straw poll. Each county was given the option of holding a straw poll if they wanted to,” Sansonetti said.

He said about eight to 10 of the 23 counties did hold straw polls.

Sometimes they are right, but when they are wrong they are really really wrong! Yesterday they were telling us that she would loose to Obama by double digits and then she won by 5 digits, that is at least a 15 digit mistake. And they call themselves experts?!

According to the polls, Hillary was suppposed to lose big in New Hampshire last night, but she won much to my dismay. But it just goes to show what polls mean. Those things are so easily manipulated. They all know what areas to call to get the results they want. <strong>Go Fred!!!</strong> Polls mean nothing.
