Is Romney actually leading in the polls or are some people delusional?

Republicans never had a positive view of science.

What... was Science mentioned in the OP or am I missing something?

Polling is something of a science. There's a lot of math and demographics and stuff involved. I was making a crude joke linking that fact to the stereotype that Republicans reject scientific claims.

Well then your joke makes sense. I didn't know Polling could be a science. 

Polling *has* to be a science, otherwise it's totally meaningless. If you just go around asking people questions, you can't be certain whether your sample was really random. If you go outside a church at noon on a Sunday and ask "how important is Jesus in your life" and then declare that these people represent everyone in your town or county, then you're likely to think your town or county is much more Christian than it might be.

Do you get it?
