Misleading.  Single digits usually means no more than 4-5.

That is Rowan. He misleads people any way he can to spin McCain. I'm sure than he could misleads Democrat to be sure than thier vote would be void.

Rowan should stop making polls if he's going to propagandize them.

Since when is 9 not single digits? I only said that because most of the polls have shown Obama up by 10 or more(RAS, CNN, etc.).

Mr. Constine, you entered the poll with the wrong date.  you are supposed to enter the date which the poll was completed, not today's date.  I have since edited your poll and I am scared that you are well on your way to making the same mistake with the Senate component of this poll - I have already entered it under the correct date, so there's a great chance you...


just don't add polls plz thanks

Jesus, I made 1 mistake.  Most of the polls I enter are perfectly correct.

I've entered quite a few of the Virginia polls.

no, that's actually the only other Virginia poll that you entered.  (yes, I went back and checked every single one).  I'm really not sure why you felt the need to lie about this, especially when your claim was so easily falsifiable.

maybe now you can understand how everyone knows that all of your 'positions' are synthetic.

Yeah, that was a big mistake on my part.  I thought I'd entered more.  My bad.

took you an hour to come up with that out?  that plus fact that you linked to your lone poll prove that you're lying through your teeth.  you have to grow up sooner or later, why not tonight?


look, Ben, I really don't hate you, though it may come across that way.  I think you're going to be a good poster in a little while.  you just need to quit the charade.

I hadn't checked the thread; I was doing a fantasy basketball draft.  I linked that poll because it's pretty recent, so it was the first one I saw.  If I had known I only entered one poll, I'd have said something different; no point in lying if you're gonna get caught so easily.

LOL

Breaking News - Anything bigger than five is no longer a single digit.

It's the context.  Sure, 9 is single digits, but there's a difference between being up 9 and being up 4.

I can understand not knowing whether you've entered, say, 10 polls or 20 polls, but one and a bunch? You can't remember multiple polls when you've entered just one. Our minds don't work that way.

I said quite a few; I was thinking I'd entered 5-6; turns out I only entered 1.  I'll be honest, I don't see why people are jumping on this; it seems like a simple mistake to me.

A headline like "VA continues to see a 20-point swing compared with 2004" would be better.

That's not a mistake that's possible. You can't do something once and think you did it multiple times.
