1. Now I really want to
know more about the 14%. Separated from the news and'or fed what kind of propaganda from where? Someone should do a study.

These victims need to move away from from the floods of toxic soup that is poisoning their reasoning process. Or they know better and are just lying.

Inquiring sane people want to know.

3. My guess would be
1) People who work for companies making money off Bush 'misventures'

2) Family members of subset 1.

3) People who don't realize that the anti-Bush group aren't members of their local government's highway beautification project.

2. Note that this is 3 positive choices vs one negative.
An acceptable poll would have an equal number of positive and negative choices, with the choices clearly indicating a balanced ranking. Did voters select Poor as the only negative choice? Did some go for Fair as a negative choice? Is Fair supposed to be the negative equivalent of Good?

The 50+ negative rating seems to be coming up in polls all over the place. Not 'Fair' 'Good' or 'Excellent' as a prospect for the Fascist Theocrat's electoral prospects, that is if we have anything resembling a fair election.

4. Timid and skewed
without a doubt. Polls match the needs of the media not the opinions of the people.

The range should be fairly spread out from removal(from office) to acclamation. You are forcing opinions to match the chosen field and people go along.

This why some of it appears "mercurial" simply because the answer meets the expectation factor and other fog machines built in. It is one reason why our interpretation of the numbers turning away from * to "us" is also not trustworthy. We are left to guess or hope that more of substance lies behind this by comparison to a few past presidents.

5. Yeah, but just think, the "fair" and "somewhat" respondents are the ones
who are tipping our way, and they are the ones we need to concentrate our efforts on. :thumbsup:
