    You're funny...you normally care about them and voice your opinion all the time, now it's different. I get it.

    Ah yes, Rasmussen Republican Polling Services.

    The pollers who changed the way that they assess the presidential tracking right before Obama entered office.

    Rasmussen is always the outlier and they are known for their partisanship.

    Tranlation: when the Truth doesn't fit the leftist narrative, call it partisanship.

    No. More like when you have a bunch of polls on the same topic and one is always the far far outlier, you tend to discount the outlier.

    Translation: I like the other polls which are partisan the correct way.

    You really shouldn't try to translate for people when you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

    There are no polls named Rasmussn or Galap. Those sound like cheap Chinese knockoffs.

    But thank you anonymous stranger on the internet. If you say that they "are the best out there", then I have no choice but to believe you.

    Nice to see that you can't use common sense. Do you know why they are some of the best? They don't ask loaded question.

    Rasmussen uses robocalls and does sketchy weighting of the results. In addition, Rasmussen changed the way that it reports its polls right before Obama was elected. Rasmussen has been known to have problems with bias in the past.
