Unlikely. Polling accurately is a difficult.

I prefer a large sample and averaging all polls together.

Dear Sir: I take from your picture , you are of Latin decent. I have two son in Laws that are also. They have educated themselves , to know why they will not support a leader that wants to keep them poor and in debted to him. You came to America or your family did, because of oppurtunity. They were ambitious. Don't become a third rate citzen dependent on Obama . He will enslave you and your family in poverty. Family first.
I wish you well in your choices.

Most Obama voters have nothing better to do than sit around and suck off the public teat. The rest of us have jobs and lives, and don't waste all our time trolling for anyone, let alone the "Dear Ruler" (AMF, @Talkmaster)

Common sense should tell you that most of the people who are most likely to vote do not waste their time on twitter.

You won't have the silent majority on twitter.

reply
james.bowman.146 2012/08/05 08:35:08

Yes

Yes. Not because Twitter is a genius thing, but because Obama has pretty much already won enough electoral votes to win and the majority of twitter users are young Obama supporters. I can't stand either candidate.

It could happen it there is a balanced selection of Democratic and Republican account holders but...somehow I would expect that to be an extreme coincidence.

Do you really feel the way your signage depicts? I feel so sorry for you and hope you have an awakening. To openly display such a denial of our Lord, you must know that He will be watching you, waiting for you to become enlightened...but, know that He WILL be watching you, maybe at this very moment, and...He knows how you feel about Him.
