Pew is a “little” bit more reliable and respected than. . . uh. . . . Breitbart.

We’ll see. Twice I have heard that one group most polls are not addressing is the
religious voter. Either the Catholic or Evangelical voter. The latter was not a group that
showed up in 2008 and the former helped put Obama in office. Supposedly, both groups
will show up in a big way this election, with both groups trending toward Romney.
And, no, I don’t have the links, so it’s just a take it or leave it situation.

GOP isn’t Catholic

The fact that you defend it should show that Arroyo is partisan.

It’s clear as day.
 
Suggestion for deficit…

At the money these two have raised and poured into their campaigns, we should just hire them both to raise money to pay the deficit, the one that raised the most once the deficit is paid can have the job. 😃

Linguistics change and using democrat as an adjective could be an example of this

Except that Democrats consider it a negative term used that way. Republicans are free to use any insults they choose against the Democrats. I avoid insulting political parties, or individuals, and consider racial epithets bad as well.

Are you denying that Pew split 4% of undecideds between Romney and Obama that Breitbart claims, thus Obama is at 50%. Are you denying the poll has a plus 4 democrat sample? Are you denying the poll has 86% registered voter turn out when there was 76% actual turn out in 2008?

I’ll tell you who the Evangelical voter is going for. Likely more the 80 percent Romney- maybe higher.

Since the 80’s they are the solid base of the GOP.

I read articles. I apparently don’t spend the time twisting numbers to feel better and preserve hope.

I’m not comparing the veracity of the websites. The Breitbart analyst simply made some good observations regarding actual numbers used by Pew, that’s all. Breitbart is like Hot Air, Townhall, The Blaze, etc., I know. But Breitbart’s arguments here are sound.

Liberal publications such as New York Times, AP, Chicago Tribune and the bbc have used the words democrat party

Democrat party is ingrained in the language and when I use the word or the above it is not meant in a derogatory way

Are you are denying the numbers in the Breibart analysis come from the pew poll?

Well, if it is of so title consequence why not simply begin using the proper term.

What is your reason for continuing to use a term which some have identified as derogatory?

Fine, but that’s YOU. I appreciate your avoiding insulting me.personally. 🙂

There are terms that a lot of people use, and freely, which you yourself would likely find derogatory. We do well NOT to be among those who don’t care if a group finds something offensive.
 
Being an idealist who never affects any real change isn’t particularly helpful to the country.

Being an idealist certainly helped me with my choice in a wife. I waited until the ideal women came along rather than comparing every women to Rosie O’Donnell.
