Wins over public? WTF is this article writer smoking?!
Yup, CNN sampled 2.5 to 1 without initially mentioning it. No surprise that they later added a paragraph explaining the fact that the poll was lopsided after the criticism but they got what they wanted - a false narrative that would be picked up by fellow leftist bloggers and news sites. Also the poll was 467 voters with a -5/+5 MOE so as to be useless. And even if CNN claims that their poll was lopsided because more Dems watched a Dem President than Pubbies, it was incumbent upon them to interview enough Pubbies so as to get a true reflection of who was swayed in all three camps.
BTW: I have no idea what this writer is talking about when he wrote, "...and to impose arbitrary limits on what a patient can claim." Can anybody explain that?
How would anyone but a liberal democrap even know that CNN was taking a poll?
he day after the most important speech of his presidency , Barack Obama had the satisfaction of a poll showing that one in seven Americans who watched it had changed their minds to back his health reforms. —————————————————
Tut tut. Don’t you know it’s what you want to believe that’s important not reality. Said another way [”well, it could be true].
I am not the first I am sure to call this a BS alert on that poll.
I’ve thought about that before. No one I know goes to any of the msm’s websites.
It is the duty of the people to overthrow a corrupt government.
