The most recent Gallup tracking poll - an average of three days' worth of interviews with registered voters - Gallup gave Barack Obama a comfortable lead over John McCain, 49% to 40%.
Those interviews with registered voters were conducted July 24 - 26. Liberal media outlets were quick to jump on those results, telling just one side of the story.
And then there's this, what you won't see in your liberal paper: From the same data set, but narrowed down to those Gallup *judged* most likely to vote: McCain leads, 49% to 45%. Yes, the same three days' worth of interviews, providing different results.
Editor's Note: Grain of salt anyone? Is objective mainstream journalism dead? Here we have a mainstream polling outfit manufacturing news, and media outfits going along with it.
It figures, they don't report the up side for McCain.
