"Democratic pollster" Doug Schoen, (who is actually a Fox News contributor who has said Obama has "should not seek relection in 2012" because he "has divided the country along partisan lines", and said that the Affordable Care Act had been a "disaster" for the Democratic Party) is the source to this Fox News article headlined "Pew poll puts Obama ahead by 10 points amid questions about its methodology".
Schoen's Penn and Schoen poll is notorious for having conducted one of the worst polls in the history of polls-- an exit poll showing Hugo Chavez losing a referendum by 20%, when in fact he won by 20% (That is equivalent to a margin of error of 40%). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penn,_Schoen_%26_Berland
So this is the only source "amid" which Pew methodology is being criticized, according to Fox. This is the "Democratic" pollster that Fox talks about, who is nothing but a man dedicated to fight Democratic and left-wing causes throughout the planet.

(54,358 posts)A source very close to the Obama campaign told me that Pew was one of the two most reliable pollsters in the country.
Hmmmm, I wonder. Who is more believable here, someone from Fox or someone from the Obama campaign?
Give me a tenth of a second here to ponder that question...................
