The polls results are probably accurate.

However it doesn’t account for the Bradley Effect or the failure to test for the impact the binding rules will have on the respondents.

For example, “do you want the US to sign the climate treaty?” is different than “do you want the US to sign the climate treaty if it means your taxes will go up and the economy declines?)

Wasn’t there a poll the other day showing 90%+ of Americans didn’t see global warming as a threat?

Even left wing sights have not had this kind of response in previous polling. In detailed polling, the number of Americans that even consider climate change to be significant, anthropomorphic or even measurable is less than 30%. This poll is highly selective in base numbers. It is a holiday poll and as such highly suspect. It further represents the worst of push polling in terms of suggestive material associated with the poll.
This is pure sophistry.
