Very sad, and very true: Public polls are a weapon, not an objective measurement. In the Leninist environment, that is a fundamental... <<What this comes down to is a question of John Zogby’s motive for predicting Kerry the winner in the fall when he is going by virtually the same numbers as all the rest of the pollsters in the country, pollsters who would not, at this juncture remotely entertain similar outbursts. It says something about Zogby’s professionalism, his objectivity, and yes, his figures, percentages, methodology, formulae, and reasons for risking what is left of his good name as a national pollster. There is the larger issue however. For the head of a polling outfit to make an attempt to influence the election by claiming, however indirectly, that the outcome is a fait accompli undermines the system. It is what professional pollsters should, I imagine, not do, unless of course their agenda is buried within their statistics. And if that is the case, it is well for the actual voting public to put John Zogby’s prediction away with the rest of the left’s desperate attempts to raise John Kerry to the level of viable candidate.>>
