Who gets the privilege of...
...determining the standard polling questions? Why do the polling outfits repeatedly hammer on the same ones all the time? Here are a few yes/no questions I'd like to see national polling results for (I'm sure my fellow DUers can come up with much better ones, let's hear 'em please.):


. Do you think Gallup is a trustworthy polling organization?

. Do you think MSM's coverage of the Downing Street Memos was
thorough, accurate, and fair?

. Do you think MSM's coverage of voting irregularities in Florida,
Ohio, and New Mexico during the '04 presidential elections was
thorough, accurate, and fair?

. Do you think MSM's coverage of the lead up to the invasion of
Iraq was thorough, accurate, and fair?

. Do you think the presidential election of 2000 was stolen?

. Do you think the presidential election of 2004 was stolen?

. Do you trust ballotless voting technologies?

3. ?, No, ?, No, Yes, ?, there should be a paper trail for recounts
And as to Gallup - they need to only be taking scientific samples of people. Exit polls are not scientific samples.
