Does it not defy logic or any reasonable explanation that Clinton's approval rating actually increased after impeachment. I don't personally respect the polls. I have read that some of the things that happen when a home is polled they request the youngest voter. If the person doesn't fit their profile they say, "we already have enough in that category" and continue their search to get the answer they desire. Also, I believe the polls can be manipulated by how the questions are structured, the order they are asked, etc.. It reminds me of the joke where a business man was interviewing a CPA for possible hiring. He told him he wanted to give him a little quiz to see how good he was. He asked him, "what is 2 + 2? The CPA closed the door and asked, "what do you want it to be?" I think that happens some in the polls.
