I'm sitting at lunch right now and there's a group of (middle-age, middle-class, white) guys sitting next to me talking about the election.
One of the guys is telling the others with complete conviction how the voting is rigged. How there's massive voter fraud in the inner cities and it's all rigged by the democrats. How Obama was "handed" his first position by the mayor of Chicago, "the most corrupt city in the country." And how inner city polling places have voter turnout of "90, 100, sometime 125%" of registered voters. And how the rigged system lets that happen. How people who aren't even registered are allowed to vote, and how they keep the voting locations open until midnight so more people can vote.
He then goes on to talk about how all the polls are rigged, and just the act of polling (like CNN or Quinnipiac polls) is bad because the results "influence" people. That all polls should be banned. (I have to assume if the polls were leaning the other way he'd feel much different.)
I'm sitting here practically biting my tongue.
