ObamiNation In Your Face Violence Tour – pollster edition

Jim Geraghty reports that Strategic Vision is getting death threats for daring to report that the McCain/Palin ticket has pulled ahead of the Obama/Biden ticket in Florida and Ohio (48%-46% and 48%-45% respectively).

Let’s take a look at the three messages that David Johnson, CEO of Strategic Vision, shared with National Review Online:

My goodness, your polls stinks. There are 3 polls that have Obama by double digits and only yours has Obama down. WOW!. How come your poll is the only one giving Palin high favor ratings? I think you nee dto be careful tonight when you get in your car and might want to check underneath your car. SCRAP YOUR IDIOTIC POLLS OR ELSE!

A poll that gave Sarah Palin and Barack Obama the same favorability rating is wrong off the bat. Be careful going outside tonight because you might not see tomorrow.

Why would your presidential election poll results be so drastically different from every other reputable poll taken over the same time period? Are they that dumb or are you guys that smart? Smart guys wind up dead.

Notes Johnson, “It’s probably just a bunch of nut cases, but this is first time we’ve ever experienced something like this. It’s highly, highly unusual. We get messages in the vein of ‘your numbers are wrong, the other guy’s numbers are right’ all the time. But this has never happened before.”

George Orwell was only 24 years off.
