Headline:

"Rasmussen: All-Time Low of 34.6% Now Call Themselves Democrats."

Within the story:

"That's down nearly half a percentage point from a month ago."

"At the same time the number of Republicans slipped from 33.8% to 33.1%."

Does anybody see any bias in how this was reported?

Republicans drop by 0.7% to 33.1%

Democrats drop by 0.5% (maybe only 0.4%) to 34.6%

Is it Rasmussen or Newsmax?   Or both?

I don't like - or truly can't stand the bias I see/hear on NBC, CNN, CBS so you know what I do? I either don't go to that newsource or when the bias starts I use my power to turn off or find something else. So if you don't like what you read on newsmax - don't read it. Sounds real easy to fix.

Why are you concerned over polls of "all adults" vs. polls of "likely voters"? Why do adults who don't vote mean anything to you? Don't forget...in the upcoming general election, independents get to vote. I would be scared of how they are turning against democrats if I were you, mall.

September 08, 2010--WASHINGTON -- The number of independent voters who disapprove of President Obama has hit an all-time high, and even more now want Democrats to lose control of Congress, according to a poll released yesterday.

About 57 percent of independents disapprove of Obama, and 61 percent complain that he hasn't brought change to DC, the Washington Post/ABC News poll found.

Nearly half of these crucial independent voters said they consider Obama "too liberal."

The numbers show momentum surging away from Obama, as a July poll had independents split, with 49 percent disapproving of Obama and 47 percent approving.

A series of polls yesterday delivered powerfully bad omens to Democrats, who are hurtling toward a thrashing in the midterm elections Nov. 2.
