An article written in the Washington Post by Michael Abramowitz titled, “Accuracy of Polls a Question in Itself,” is about the assumptions made within polls and how they could be wrong. The McCain campaign is complaining of how the national polls are inaccurate and making Barack Obama overconfident. The Gallup polls have been around for 60 years and hardly have ever been wrong, if anything the people of America are being inaccurate. How can you accuse a poll of being wrong, when every poll in the nation has about the same, stable results, Obama is going to win. McCain’s campaign has hopes of taking great measures and increasing their poll results, and they infer that this election will resemble 2004’s. McCain’s campaign is trying to say that the only reason Obama is up 15 points is because of the African American voter increase in the South. So what? That’s what happens when people like who’s campaigning for presidency, the majority should win. About a week ago I noticed Obama upping his television ads, about every other commercial was for Barack Obama. But recently within the past week, McCain has fired back and increased his television ads as well, butting out Obama’s. The final voting comes down to the several Swing States left, but from what I have read, Obama has a lead in most. I don’t think McCain will have a close chance of winning the presidency.
