- fadeout, on 07/13/2008, -0/+7Yeah, them predicting laughable results and no wins for a candidate that wound up with laughable results and no wins was just wayyyy off..
- inactive, on 07/13/2008, -1/+7"and this particular poll was a volunteer-based internet poll. And they're not known for their reliability. Ask Ron Paul."
Anyone else remember 9-12 months ago on digg when you had the die-hard paul bandwagoneers slamming the scientific polls for being "old inaccurate msm garbage" or my personal favorite "inaccurate because of youthful paul supporters with ONLY cellphones"? Anyone who tried to tell them they were wrong was dugg down vigorously. Of course in the meanwhile, stories were being dugg up into the thousands about how paul placed 1st in a "official straw poll".
Boy did they quickly change their tune after two 5th place finishes in a row... - tcbishop12, on 07/11/2008, -3/+7Wahooo! Woah, Nellie!
But if it hurts you there, John McCain, I'm sure the hurt's just psychological. Laugh it away. - thefirstenemy, on 07/12/2008, -3/+6I'm very, very skeptical of this poll. Zogby has been horrible this cycle, and this particular poll was a volunteer-based internet poll. And they're not known for their reliability. Ask Ron Paul.
- reed311, on 07/13/2008, -0/+3Buried for suggesting that an online poll is even remotely accurate.
- ZenMojo, on 07/11/2008, -3/+5The man has a 51% disapproval rating in his own state. This is hardly a surprise.
McCain Protip: To know him is to despise him. - Hortnon, on 07/14/2008, -0/+1Well, there's a catch. This poll actually has some statistical backing:

- marabout40, on 07/11/2008, -3/+3The McCain called the poll "a fraud." Truth hurts I guess.
- tcbishop12, on 07/12/2008, -3/+3The Zogby Poll - which has been fairly reliable in past elections and primaries - shows Obama crushing McCain among Arizona Independent voters, 51 percent to 28 percent. Old friend from school who lives in Tempe area confirms that McCain's not terribly popular in the state.
- Cuchanu, on 07/12/2008, -1/+1Remember, this is the state that refuses to celebrate Martin Luther King Day. So I don't think McCain or Obama believe Obama is going to win. The only way that will happen is if the state's Hispanics turn out in record numbers because they realize McCain flip-flopped on his immigration stance.
- littlequeenie, on 07/12/2008, -3/+2I had disagreed with McCain on a lot of issues but had always respected him for his service in Vietnam. No longer. He is a piece of crap just like Bush. The more I know about him, the more he promises another Bush term - right down to incredible level of stupidity that I had once thought was unique to Bush.
- michaelstokes, on 07/12/2008, -3/+1I'm sorry but these national polls are clearly mathematically inaccurate. If you take a polling average from the State polls and then weight them based on the percentage of votes likely to come from those states, based on population, McCain is down by 15+ points. Obama has massive leads in the largest states while McCain has only marginal leads in the large, traditionally Republican states. Therefore, the national polls are contradicting the state polls.
The RNC is about to make a major mistake in spending more on McCain than some of the important Senate raises under the delusion that he is closer than he really is.
