Conservatives Supposedly "Prefer" Abacus Data and Angus Reid Institute.

I laugh heartily when fellow Conservatives go on and on all the way to boredom about the supposed skewed methodology at most polling firms. Right. Partisans and politicos are always the same: looking for a fig leaf justification that dismisses why most people can't stand them or their party. Yeah, it sure is the way methodology is done, that is, until the firms using that methodology come out with numbers showing that same party either newly or serially in the ditch. Give me a break. Mind you, I agree that methodology affects the numbers, but only at the margins. That factor alone, IMHO, is not enough to produce seriously inaccurate results. Others even argue that those two companies overpoll for the CPC. But that's a debate for another day.

And speaking of Abacus:

Liberals: 46%

Conservatives: 36%

New Democrats: 8%

Bloc Québécois: 6%

Greens: 3%

Well, surprise, surprise, there goes the fall election for the CPC. The PP Effect strikes again in its usual and predictable direction...
