The author (as many other political “analysts”) uses polls as objective facts to confirm his electoral fantasies. In our “scientific” times polls have replaced astrology. The kings and all ancient politicians, before beginning any important busyness, asked their official astrologers which consulted the planets. So the astrology was a very serious and “objective” science, based on the observation of the movements of the celestial corps and not on capricious “opinions” of “average” individuals. So if I had to make a choice between polls and astrology I would choose astrology. Fortunately, I am not a news paper’s writer or politician. So I need not make this choice. It would be interesting to know what American astrologers say about… about the possibility of a gay becoming US President. Why not, if St. Obamus (who, as some say, makes miracles) has all probabilities (according to astrologers) to realize his father’s dream (what dream, they don’t specify)?
