So the MSM, who was then in her favor, decided that using these Dem oversampled polls, which showed Hillary as a 10 point favorite over Trump, would discourage Independents and some Republicans from going out to vote. Again, you have a similar conclusion with Rush Limbaugh who stated repeatedly that the polls were PURPOSELY skewed for one purpose only. To create despair, frustration and reduce or discourage Republican turnout. They will not be so successful any longer. For each poll presented on this thread I always look up the internals and come back with a D+ 8 to 12 sampling error, or no internals at all, which is then totally FAKE. Nobody ever argues with me and/or the internals. FAKEPOLLS by the FAKENEWS. The sad part is that many liberals here still believe those polls and also believe the Russian collusion crap. They are in total denial. Hillary LOST. Trump won.

I believe, you are right on with your analysis of what made, and still makes those liberally tilted pollsters ticking a little bit off realty. I'd also add to my suspicions, that those pollsters - mindwise often suspended way over and off common sense - might truly believe, that some kind of "join the club" mentality among the(ir!) masses could possibly drive them 'should be liberal voters to lift their lazy butt' and get out there to cast their vote and by doing that providing to and 'joining the winning team', us liberals! Thus, inflate our winning case in order to wake them up, our working class and 'intellectuals'!!! Being on and having contributed to the win is indeed something for some people to fell good and happy about, when conversing with others of their kind. Fortunately, reality came into play in proving, that any speculations like this belong in fairytale land and nowhere else :)
