In your defense the Politico article is not very well written at best and biased at worse. rhett o rick Feb 2015 #115

It would certainly help to have some accurate information Jackpine Radical Feb 2015 #117

The poll is most likely a piece of trash. That's not the main question. Politico, rhett o rick Feb 2015 #120

What is your expertise in polling? Cosmic Kitten Feb 2015 #63

Polls should not make statements about candidates as part of the questioning. geek tragedy Feb 2015 #64

How can you identify a "push-poll"? Cosmic Kitten Feb 2015 #60

Looks like simple facts? Cosmic Kitten Feb 2015 #65

That rhetoric belongs in a political campaign, NOT a poll trying to measure public opinion geek tragedy Feb 2015 #67

Is it rhetoric to ask pointed questions? Cosmic Kitten Feb 2015 #69

Admit to what exactly? Cosmic Kitten Feb 2015 #84
