Y should we trust POLLS any more than.. politicians? media?

The polls say most Americans at this point want Trump or Fiorina



But has anyone ever questioned

  • WHO does these polls? Are they not biased creatures like the rest of us?

  • Then there's the fact that if you were to take a poll on Sunday @ various churches u might just get a different outcome (WHERE the poll is taken is also important)

  • But the most important point is tht we don't know (or I certainly don't, which means others do not either) WHO exactly is responsible for these polls. They may be, as far as anyone knows, about as trustworthy as... one the candidates currently running in D party (Ms EmailScandal)


    Then there is this interesting factoid


    * Most of the polls cited on the news are from a group of (we hope) voters numbering about 400 or so.. not representative of we the (approximately) 250 million (adults)


    Then there is this other little factoid RARELY mentioned on the news (though I heard it on cnn recently):

  • More than 60% of voters are NOT decided yet...

  • Then there is yet another thing (which has been mentioned on the news): People tend to be more serious when in the voting booth

  • Then there is yet another consideration: Fox of course is going to be careful how they handle both T and F.. for obvious reasons
