Politico: Investors Ready For Dramatic Sell-Off If Democrats Win

Friday, October 24th, 2008

York Times Endorses Obama As Stock Tumbles To Junk Status

Friday, October 24th, 2008

Friday, October 24th, 2008

The CBS News - New York Times poll released on September 23 is yet another MSM product which juggles the numbers to give Barack Obama an inflated lead. The poll results show Obama with a 13-point lead, but the numbers have been rigged by the use of unrealistic partisan weighting.
