Exit Polls Go Huge For Obama

And if you believe them you are hugely dumb.

Of course, exit polls gave Kerry supporters all the proof they needed to go all troofer on the electoral system.

If Obama goes down expect "the election was stolen. Again!" crowd to grow their cottage industry into more than just a few "experts", comic books and Code Pink orgasmic calls for a coup d’état.

Exit polls started as an issue tool to attempt to take the temperature of voters. Questions such as, "How important was the abortion issue in your vote?", became a 'poll' of who is winning an election.

Exit polls suck as a campaign tool or as a tool for the media. That they are ridiculously inaccurate will not stop some people from treating them as gospel.
