Romney and Obama tied in 2012 matchup (poll), Rasmussen claims

[Jake Stillow]

I think the fact that all Rasmussen polls (Sotomayor, public option, etc.) favor the Republican side is good reason for conducting an investigation into his polling practices. There must be some agency in charge of making sure that pollsters stick to some guidelines:

1. i wonder if it was a 1912 matchup how it would go? What about Kucinich v. Palin?

omg

2. Maybe we can stop posting Rasmussen polls then? Short of "investigation"

which is unrealistic and unwise, you can at least spare us their "findings."

3. Given what I've read here about Obama being a failure

on the economy and healthcare, I'm surprised it's not Romney in a landslide. After all, Romney knows how to run America like a business, and he signed healthcare reform into law in Mass.

4. rasmussen is the push-poller of push-polls.

I signed up to get on his polls, and they are all right-leaning hogwash.

5. With 3 1/2 years to go

until the next election it seems pretty silly to even be doing polls on some hypothetical match-up at this time.

I don't believe Romney can win the Republican nomination anyway.

6. 3 1/2 years ahead of time.

I just want to stab them in the face.

7. Wonder if the 2012 talking points we've been seeing

for the last few days were somehow co-ordinated to back up this poll?

:shrug:

8. Oh please, this is such a joke.
