The day before the primary in PA, the Huffington Post ran this story:

“All the polls this weekend show Hillary Clinton leading in Pennsylvania, but Obama’s the one drawing the crowds. On Friday, he spoke to the largest group on the campaign so far-- 35,000, assembled in Independence Park, spilling onto the street-- and Sunday in Reading he drew about 2600. Clinton’s drew an estimated 1500 at a high school a few miles away the day before.”

> Now they want us to BELIEVE that Obama is attracting crowds in the TENS of thousands, while Clinton attracts a measly 1500 yet she won the primary..?!  This is so inane it’s pathetic.  Let’s not forget Mark Penn has been involved in all types of election fraud.

From Global Research:
“The curious career of Mark Penn”

“The figure of Mark Penn is revealing as to what the machine of Hillary Clinton represents in terms of power politics. Penn had been a political adviser of the Clintons since managing Bill Clinton’s 1996 re-election fight. His firm ran the election polls that helped define Clinton’s campaign strategy, itself a cynical modern US electoral innovation, updating with high tech means the motto, “tell the people what they want to hear.” Penn’s polling firm, Penn, Schoen and Berland (PSB) has been used by Britain’s Tony Blair, Italy’s Silvio Berlusconi, by Menachim Begin in Israel and Senator Joe Lieberman to shape election strategy.

PSB has played a pioneering role in the use of polling operations, especially “exit polls,” in facilitating various US-backed “Color Revolutions” in Serbia and elsewhere. Its primary mission is to shape the perception that the group installed into power in a targeted country has broad popular support. The PSB group began work in Serbia during the period when Mark Penn, was President Clinton’s top political advisor.

“Manipulating exit polls

The PSB website boasts that they, “have played critical roles behind the scenes of the elections in Serbia and Zimbabwe, helping the opposition parties craft strategies, messages and organize a credible and effective campaign .....techniques is as well as the advice of the best Western political consultants and image makers, is as potent a weapon as the planes, bombs, and intelligence technology ..... In short, PSB is at the cutting edge of the modern politics of images.

In 2004 it was PSB which ran the “exit polls” in Venezuela asserting even as voting was still open, that their polls showed “major defeat for Chavez.” The opposite was the case with Chavez winning an overwhelming 59%. Investigation revealed that Penn’s PSB had emailed and faxed their poll results to international media four hours before polls were to close proclaiming, on the basis of the fraudulent polls that Chavez had lost. That was in violation of Venezuelan election law and was intended to rally international support behind a campaign to declare Chavez guilty of vote fraud and organize a recall. It backfired and PSB came under public fire as a result.

Referring to Mark Penn, the influential Washington Post once referred to him as “the most powerful man in Washington you’ve never heard of.” According to PSB’s website, Penn helped elect 15 overseas Presidents in the Far East, Latin America, and Europe. Clients include heads of state or opposition politicians in Greece, Turkey, Israel, the Philippines, the Dominican Republic, Bermuda and Yugoslavia.”

>Did you catch that comment in the paragraph above the subtitle “Manipulating Exit Polls”. “PSB has played a pioneering role in the use of polling operations, especially “EXIT POLLS,” in facilitating various US-BACKED “COLOR REVOLUTIONS” in Serbia and elsewhere.” (emphasis mine)

The article comments:  “The networks have called it for Hillary and I think after Florida in 2000 they’re not going to make that mistake again, so obviously our polls were wrong.”

>Were they..?  What “mistake” did they make in 2000?  I found this which proves their “accuracy”. It ledes this way:

ABC Posted Results One Day Before Election
February 24, 2000 NA (Network America) e-wire

“So what? So if one set of numbers can be pre-programmed into the computers as a “test”, another set can be pre-programmed in as the “final results” to be unveiled on Election night, - after the manipulated Big Media public opinion polls and phony election day “exit polls” (both also conducted by the Big Media) have prepared the public mind for such “final results.”

With all those honest blue collar and white collar employees working at ABC and the other Big networks both during the Monday pre-election test AND during the Tuesday Election night, the Media Moguls couldn’t throw up the exact same numbers - it would be too obvious that everything was fixed. But maybe after 25 years of “success” in overseeing computerized elections, our high-tech Rulers are getting a little lazy - and only changing a few of the numbers for the Monday night test? You decide:

Some of ABC’s Election Eve “Test” Results were amazingly Accurate

“Once again,” wrote Dean McCullough, a reporter for Wired, an important computer magazine, “the Net had it first, this time by accident.”

Ingrid Rimland posted on her internet Zundelsite (webcom.com/ezundel/english) an article by Adam Clayton Powell III: ABC News’ Election Eve ‘Net’ “Mistake”.

Powell skewered ABC mercilessly on the day after the Tuesday election:

“With almost all election districts reporting, those phony ABC News test numbers on Monday accurately matched the outcomes of the Senate and governor races in 61 of 70 contests - 87%. It would be difficult to find a political analyst, pundit, or bookie who even came close.

“While every major analyst on Sunday was predicting the Republicans would pick up anywhere from one to four Senate seats this week, ABC’s test numbers on Monday had it right on the money: a 55-45 GOP-Democrat split, for no net change.

“Even more remarkable, in some of the most closely watched contests, ABC News election eve “test” numbers matched the final count almost precisely - within one percentage point.

“In the Florida Governor’s race, Jeb Bush beat Buddy McKay by 55% to 45% - the exact final result rehearsed by ABC News on Monday night. In Texas, Jeb’s brother George won by 69% to Mauro’s 30% - the very result used in the ABC rehearsal on Monday.

“ABC News rehearsal numbers also matched the exact final results to within one percentage point in the governors’ races in Alabama, Colorado, Wisconsin and Wyoming.”

Rimland returned to comment: “I well remember the agonies of Statistics 101 ... As I remember my lessons, the galaxies would not have sufficed to explain the outcomes cited [i.e. the accuracy of ABC’s ‘test’ numbers on Monday night when compared to the final ‘results’ on Tuesday night."]"
