The (GOP) InsiderAdvantage Poll is a tool to set us up to be diebolded
Edited on Mon Jan-18-10 09:33 PM by scheming daemons
Look at the internals of that poll.

26% of blacks voting for Brown?

76% of Hispanics?

61% of 18-29 year olds?



Does anybody believe that?


No.... this poll is being used as "cover".


Yeah... I'm wearing my
:tinfoilhat:


But nearly every voting machine in the state of Massachusetts is a diebold paper-trail-less one.



Just saying....

1. This has been my thought as well,
although I suspect they've come up with an entirely new way to steal an election. One that we haven't figured out yet.

The apparent surge of this teabagger candidate, in Massachusetts of all places, makes absolutely no sense.

2. There are no brown people among the Brown Brigade.
It's a bunch of white men, some who aren't even from MA.

7. Yes. They are bussing in teabaggers from other states.
Someone who witnessed this first-hand called into Ed Schultz today.

You have to wonder if all these recent poll numbers reflect reality, or are carefully designed to set us up for a pre-determined result.

Brown has 'surged' nearly 20 points according to some polls literally in the last week or so, with no good explanation that I can see.

Most of the factors that the media cites to explain this are not new variables - in other words, they were factors when Coakley was 20 points ahead.

14. At least.
The Boston Globe poll on 1/10 had Coakley 17 points ahead.

Now, barely a week later, several polls have brown leading by as much as 10.

Does that look funny to you?

18. We are being played, big time.
The real story here is apathy.

So many voters are so frustrated with politics right now the media could report just about anything and they would believe it.

If they pull this off tomorrow in MA, I suspect this fall will make the loss of Congress in '94 pale in comparison.

5. So what about the other polls?
Showing the same?

Are they all in on it?

Are we seriously back to this Diebold voting machine conspiracy nonsense?

8. And since very few progressives have shown any interest in this issue since victories in 2006/08
They're probably going to get away with it.

11. If you ignore it when you win but blame it when you lose, people are going to stop listening.

13. Perhaps because it's utterly ridiculous...
Basically, a win is a win, and a loss is a dark conspiracy.

It's kinda silly the first time, and just gets more dopey over time.

19. The politicians are never going to do anything about election fraud
because the only ones that are affected by it are no longer in office.
