not opinion polls, exit polls.

no regardless about it man, Im talking about exit polls and you arent and they are two majorly different things

well, even looking AT exit polls, they seem to indicate a Bush win as well

I think you are trying to prove me wrong using links. I could grab links too that say the opposite of what you are saying, not only that, I still remember the news from that night.

Well, naturally you need to provide links if you're using a poll as a source...

I'm simply going off of what has been right in the past and has been accurate. RCP has been, and very much so.

It assumes the battleground states.. that's the only problem I have. Some states are way too close to call.

Consistent polls are usually accurate. And even then, don't write them off entirely.

Case in point. ACT local/state election a few weeks ago.

Last poll shows the Greens were on track to win four (of a total of seventeen) seats. Everybody thought 'ha, no chance'.

The Greens won four seats.

Moreover: looking at the list of states that are generally considered to be Obama territory that is by and large NOT up for grabs:

California, Connecticut, D.C., Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin

That makes up 264 electoral votes... just 6 short of the 'magic number'.

one would think it wouldn't pass since, y'know, California has a reputation for being very liberal...

Also, kmarion, isn't it spelled "judgment"?

Is it true that they're putting troops on notice for riots and shit? My mom said her friend's son is a marine, and he is on alert or whatever.
