Answer 1

Polls have not agreed with the final outcome in the last elections.

Answer 2

why wuld u want him to win does he want to give us more homework or something

Answer 3

it's possible, but nobody can say for sure.

Call Regina Russell's phone psychics, they'll know the answer.

Answer 4

The only poll data that is really of consequence is that from the voting polls..

Answer 5

Hey if you don't want him, send him to Canada...our elections are coming up and we could use a good man!!!

Answer 6

I believe the lead will grow, and that the final poll (in November) will cement his victory.

Answer 7

I don't believe in those polls, as it does not represent all American citizens.

And I do believe Obama will win on November 2!

Answer 8

Yes, because McCain messed up with Palin...Barack has a huge advantage over McCain. Demos will WIN!!!!!!!!!

Answer 9

GOD I HOPE NOT. before you guys vote for this man. DO YOUR RESEARCH!!! and dont think your vote doesnt count, because it does.

Answer 10

I think it will only grow now.  McCain has destroyed any chance he had with the selection of Palin.

Answer 11

Hopefully...as long as Palin's children rebel againt her like Bristol did, hopefully america might know that she cant handle her family problems let alone run this country.

Answer 12

Yeah - unless a big bombshell comes out or the Republicans finally find a way to "swift - boat" him.  

Answer 13

I don't believe in polls,they're not accurate.

Hillary believed in the polls in Iowa......how did that work out for her ? !

LOL !

Answer 14

anything is possible. But not very likely at all..

polls always fluctuate and it will more than likely continue to go back down on obama and back up in his favor. best 2 not pay it any attention. Wait for the REAL results..

Answer 15

It doesn't matter because the polls will not translate into a victory.  The fact is that no one has voted yet.  So whether the polls are at 50% for Obama or 30%, if he has enough votes in his favor then he will win regardless of what the polls say.  

Answer 16

You have to look at the electoral college not pure poll numbers.

Answer 17

He'd better!

Answer 18

yes but not in the polls. He will win by a wide margin because a lot of his voters are 1st time voters and young voters. They are not counted as likely voters

Answer 19

Polls are inconsistent statistics and change consistently.  The polls will go up and down throughout the election until November.  It wouldn't be surprising if the leader will be losing in some polls before the end, but it doesn't mean the leader will lose during the election.  So they will change many times.  The stress is on the trailer, because the trailer has to find some factor(s) which will alter polls for a significant change.  Close polls are deceiving, so whoever is in the lead has to keep maintaining a decent lead for the margin of error.

Answer 20

i don't see how he can maintain it thru the week, the only topic of

discussion since friday has been Sarah Palin VP!  

Answer 21

Only time will tell if he can or not. This election cycle is so s***w-ball and unpredictable anything could happen.  

Answer 22

Thanks to Palin's as McCain's pick for running mate and the unlimited scandals; I believe Obama's poll numbers will continue to grow.
