I would assume your assumption would be right...so??

Well, if I posted online poll results for what people think of the GOP or some figure in the GOP from, say, DailyKos...how much stock would you put on those results?

The Bozeman Daily Chronicle equates to DailyKOS in your mind?
 
You tell me, Damo.

If Obama's approval rating actually dropped to just over 30% today...don't you think that would be significant news?
That doesn't make the city's newspaper equate to DailyKOS.

It's an online poll with all their faults. Nobody puts much stock in them, but it doesn't make Bozeman Daily Chronicle equate to the DialyKOS. That's just plain silly.

The example was provided more to illustrate that it is not an unbiased poll, and that online polls in general are not reflective of the national opinion, as evidenced by the results.

You've really become such a waste of time to respond to.

Please. You pick the DailyKOS in your example and equate a city's newspaper to it. I wanted to know if those two things really equated in your mind or if you were trying for the hyperbole and actually purposefully reaching into the ridiculous.

And I agree, online polls are a fun toy, but they don't reflect anything except who was online at the moment.

And in this case it also shows that the Bozeman paper online is frequented by conservatives.

Or it was during that poll. Most people that visit the site wouldn't take part in the poll. These polls are not even indicative of what kind of readers they have.

do you have point?
 
that doesn't make it equal to the dailykos

DailyKos online polls = biased & unreliable; not a true measure of American opinion.

Bozeman online polls = biased & unreliable; not a true measure of American opinion.

That's the point. I don't know where you guys got the argument that I somehow said Bozeman is the exact same thing as DailyKos.

Another strawman.
