So, how do you answer this? |
|
Today's CNN question: Will the Iraq prison abuse scandal affect your vote in November?
Currently it's 67% no, 33% yes.
I clicked yes though, technically, it doesn't affect my vote because I can't think of anything that would make me not vote for Kerry. But, if I answered no, it may be read as support for Bush.

That's the secret of polling. Phrase the question the right way, and you can get the answers you want, or push something. Will President Bush's stance on killing babies and drinking their blood change your vote in November? Hey, it's a perfectly valid poll.

2. That's a badly worded poll |
|
But yeah, I'd have to honestly click no; I was already going to vote for Kerry. Bryant Check it out --> http://politicalcomment.blogspot.com

4. I answered the same way, for the same reason |
|
I thought it was really a convoluted question...The interpretation of results can be spun in any direction.
