Who slipped up? Or was it on purpose?

Taking a cue from Fox News, Linda Ellerby was on the Today Show this morning to talk about kids and the election.  She said that whatever poll they conduct with these kids has always predicted the president accurately.  They show a graphic that displays this.  Matt asked "who won this time" and Linda Replied "John McCain, 51%, which is very close, and our sample size was twice as large as it was in 2004." (I'm paraphrasing here.)  Cue the graphic, where it shows Obama won by 51%.  This is IDENTICAL to something Fox News would pull.  Could NBC not allow a stat to show John McCain winning a poll that has accurately predicted president in so many previous elections??  It simply could not be a mistake.  LMAO.

  • It's sounds like they just mispoke. Kids love Obama, I'd be surprised if they picked McCain over O.

  • Actually, Obama did win that kids' poll. I read an article about it last week. If Ellerby said McCain won, she misspoke. The graphic was correct.

    Ditto.  I read that somewhere as well.
