1. The Question Wasn't Asked Correctly.... I DIDN'T Vote Because |
|
they used the word "will" as opposed to SHOULD!!
If they had used SHOULD, I actually think the totals would be reversed!!!
I don't doubt he WILL be confirmed!

They ought to have a poll:
Will Congress screw the average American this year?
Yes
No
That's much better than:
Should Congress screw the average American this year?
Yes
No
