Fewer than 1% of homeowners put political signs in their yards because it's no one else's business as to how they vote. That's why media reports about election "polls" are so whacked. The sample size of willing participants is tiny. And usually wrong. Do pollsters get paid or are they producing these elaborate pranks for free? Modern polling is terribly flawed and only advances lazy journalism. A media outlet will only post or broadcast poll results if (a) they have space to fill, (b) there is a shocking change from previous polling, or (c) a media person with the authority to choose whether a "story" merits publication is happily amplifying their own bias. With Kentucky's election just a few weeks away,

It’s not hunting season but Governor Matt Bevin came loaded for bear
Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin texted me moments before a planned phone interview today to suggest that he drop by the studio in person. Perfect. A face-to-face interview nearly always produces more in-depth analysis of current events. We opened with inside baseball chatter about Air Force One and President Trump's attention to details. We closed with topics like religion, patriotism, and child rearing. It was those 22 minutes in the middle that were 🔥🔥🔥😳 📻 @GovMattBevin on how @KYGOP spends Trump visit money, throws shade at Crazy Bernie, Lil' Andy, Stumbo, Heather, @KyDems opioid settlement money, looks to 2nd term with @GOP AG @djaycameron 🎙️ AUDIO https://t.co/2IRknOjqxi #teachers #religion #patriotism #childrearing pic.twitter.com/zJJJTXcI82— Terry Meiners (@terrymeiners) August 26, 2019 Governor Bevin dismantled his opponent

Cameron and I talked on the radio today about 30 minutes after Trump tweeted his endorsement news that was embargoed until today's tweet was posted. ....He is tough on Crime, Strong on Borders, and will fight for our Second Amendment. Daniel will never let you down. He has my Full and Complete Endorsement!— Donald J. Trump
Greg Stumbo has lost his memory and his mind
With Steve Beshear out of office and Gov. Matt Bevin's administration overshadowing all things Frankfort, Ky. Speaker of the House Greg Stumbo has lost his mind. On election night, he railed about religion, Mary & Joseph, and Hillary riding a horse (or donkey) into Kentucky to save the Democrats. Now Stumbo is angry that the Bevin administration has courted a few Democrats to switch sides, maneuvers that the speaker says are illicit. What he is forgetting to mention are multiple examples of the Beshear administration doing the same thing in reverse, including clearing a path for Stumbo himself to work his way back into the legislature. I enjoyed reminding Stumbo of his hypocrisy on my radio show. Part 2 Famous gay basher Kim Davis,
