Default Liberal website 538.com shows McCain easily winning election

This website was created so the left could try and spin the electoral vote projections to show Obama winning. This was one of the most quoted websites by liberals, along with Electoralvote.com, right up until 2 weeks ago when they could no longer spin in the face of the McCain/Palin tsunami.

That's nice. Too bad (for you) the vote wasn't today!

I'd rather wait for the McCain landslide. That will be far more fun to watch.

So that's a liberal web site, huh?

Can you please give us an example of what you consider a neutral poll-aggregation site?

As of this writing, Electoral-vote.com is showing McCain ahead by 2.

And that IS a liberal website.

When he is up above the margin of error, come talk to us. Otherwise, November is coming .

RCP is the closest thing, even though they use Democrat leaning polls in their makeup.

The site owner does appear to lean Democratic. But his methodology is exceedingly transparent. It's kind of silly to call the site "liberal" in such a case.

Look on 538.com's front page and you can see the tie-in with Electoral Vote.com.
