Zogby releases some crazy new interactive polls

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Yes, but some of the polls you got your hopes up and some of them you didn't and I didn't get my hopes up because the poll was released too soon after the August one.

Wrong.

I am always a little skeptical of Zogby and Gallup.  They both use flawed methodologies for deriving their results.  And those Zogby interactive polls are even more suspect in my mind.  I place them as having more value than totally made up results, and far less value than polls with more tried and true scientific methods methods.  Some of these polls are about as useful as wetting your finger and sticking it up to see which way the wind is blowing.  I think a site that collects all of the polls in one place is the most useful.  A graph plotting all of the polls taken as a whole is great for giving an indication of the country's political mood.

My point is that you shouldn't get your hopes on polls that when they are up and when they are down. All polls should be trusted.

All polls should be trusted.

At any rate, even if you didn't say the dems should take back the senate, polls may conflict with what you might think the election might turnout, they are random of samples of people on how they think the election will turn out, and I think you should give them a chance to see if they conflict or confirm the other polls despite their mythology, because they very well might turnout to be try.
