1. July 27-29 looks like a push poll from here

[stray cat]

2. Would 50% think I was qualified? I have executive experience as a really small business owner....

[FrenchieCat]

3. Do you have a Vagina?

Just askin'!

[stray cat]

10. I do - I can haz vice presidency? Is pay raise and less work!

McCain says I only need to break tie votes and inquire as to the presidents health. However, if I have to associate with McCain - I don't really want the position!

[jefferson_dem]

4. If so, you would get more support than Sarah. She only got 45% on the qualified question.

I would vote for you over her any day, dmordue! :hi:

5. the CNN opinion polls always seem to come up with especially funky results

[AtomicKitten]

6. Mark my word, McBush's VP nod will be his undoing.

[alcibiades_mystery]

7. So the 49%-48% isn't a head-to-head, but "approval ratings"

:rofl:

Pretty deceptive polling results on the part of CNN...

[jefferson_dem]

8. I guess. That's the way Halperin has framed it at least.

Haven't seen the actual poll results.

[NotThisTime]

9. It's official, people are stupid. 45% believe she IS qualified. In that case, I'm qualified & that's

scary....

[davidinalameda]

11. thank you

I was thinking the same thing

[kwolf68]

12. Really

I can't believe 45% think she's qualified. So do these people answering the questions get a lollypop?

[Cha]

13. It's cnn celebrity n00ze rag...so

actually 50% seems high to me.

[madguy]

14. This poll is bizarre - it doesn't add up

How can 50% think she's not qualified but 57% think this choice reflects well on McCain???

[jefferson_dem]

17. Makes zero sense.

Based on these results, a majority believe McCain picked an unqualified VP to appeal to women voters but it reflects well on him.

mmmm...k.

Cognitive dissonance much?

[still_one]

15. This counterdicts the Gallop poll, and there is no indication how this poll was done

and that it represents an approval poll, NOT who someone is going to vote for

blitzer was pushing on CNN that Obama never got a Convention bump

Screw the polls, screw the MSM

They are out of touch

The women and the young people are going to save this country

[pyro858]

16. 45% think she's qualified to be POTUS?

Who are these intellectual insects? I want to meet one.

[NorthCarolina]

18. Hard to believe isn't it?
