No. It is yet another denying-reality tactic on the Right because they can't ever seem to make peace with the world as it is. We have a fictional socialist muslim dictator as President, so why not believe in fictional polls that show him being trounced by Romney as well?

I don't understand this notion that by overstating Obama leads you will depress Republican turnout. That makes no sense whatsoever. If Obama was wildly up in the polls vs. Romney that would probably depress Democratic turnout as much if not moreso than Republican turnout. The conspiracy isn't even sensible.

Answer: The media is being played.

What does that mean? For what? How?

Please hang out for after the election, Politico. I'm looking forward to your reactions more than the re-election of Obama itself.
