BFranklin: "Why is it that if a person doesn't vote for B Obama they are a racist? I know several individuals that are "pretending" to vote for Obama because they can't stand the personal attacks on their character, the vandalism of their property or the general air that they are stupid for having a difference of opinion."
Nice try, BFranklin, but Specter's statement had to do with pollsters. Unless you're claiming that pollsters have been making personal attacks on the character of those who give the wrong answers, your point is lost.
kry: You seem to be unaware of the Bradley Effect, which means you haven't paid much attention during this election cycle. Or maybe Traister could have made her point more clearly. But it seems obvious that Specter was referring to the Bradley Effect and not some other phenomenon known only to himself.
