and was polling ahead

My point about polls isn't that they are deliberately phonied up (though some clearly are).

My point is polling only works if the population being polled cooperates with the pollsters.

Americans are no longer willing to cooperate. Be fascinating if someone could figure out why.

The collection of pro-Clinton and anti-Trump MSM are using every trick in the book to try and convince as many of the voters as possible as to the unsuitability of Trump .... and that includes referring to the "incontrovertible(?) evidence(?)" of Polls, which I suspect the bunch of them have done all that they possibly can to manipulate.

It's using an old strategy of trying to convince folk that if they are thinking Trump is the man, then they are "out-of-step(?)" with general opinion.

And folk don't often want to think of themselves as being contrary to the main stream, because, surely, if so many are "Apparently(?)" thinking in a certain way, then surely they must be more correct than they are .... the usual devious and conniving strategy of the media ....
