I just got off the phone with a ‘public opinion survey’. Interestingly, most of the survey went like this:
“Would you be more or less likely to vote for <DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE> if you knew <SOME THING THE DEMOCRAT DID, EXPLAINED IN A NEGATIVE WAY>?”.
Next question:
“Would you be more or less likely to vote for <REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE> if you knew <SOME THING THE REPUBLICAN DID, EXPLAINED IN A POSITIVE WAY>?”.
Wow. So much for getting public opinion. I’m not pointing a finger here, because maybe Dems are doing something equally shady. This does help to lower my overall view of honesty in the political process. Which was already pretty dang low.
