<<<<< Lying for fun? Lying gives me goosebumps.>>>> I am philosophically against the use of polls as used in our political process. Because of polls, the candidates are spending all their time in the tiny number of states that the polls say are still up for grabs. Is there any positive gain for the people from polls? If so, I don't know what it is. .............In case you are not getting calls, polls are now used serendipitously to worm the callers way into who you are. Some polls ask a few questions and when they realize you aren't the person they are targeting you get......"thanks for your time". Others if you answer a keyed question a certain way the poll suddenly turns into a call in support for a specific candidate. Lying to pollisters is like telling a woman she isn't fat - when in fact her pants are one size too small.
