For what it is worth, my degree is in psychology, although I never pursued it professionally. I did however, study tests and testing (Personality and IQ testing is especially useful in analyzing gullibility of ad targets - whether consumer products or unbelievable political candidates)

I don't think it's a vanity at all. I'm glad you've posted it.

Most bizzare question: "For President would you vote for: (1) The Tin Man, who has a brain but no heart, - or (2) The Scarecrow, who has a heart, but no brain.

I received this survey too and was amazed at this question.

Someone pointed out that the Apple Tree was the only one in the entire film that understood property rights.

I received this poll last Friday. It was certainly different from the usual Zogby.

It looks like Zogby plays word games. So, I would have wrote in your answer that Bush has a heart and a brain, and ignored their choices.

In the past, Zogby has done well the last week of the campaign compared to many others because of their ability to determine the leanings of supposedly undecided voters. Rasmussen can't get at stuff like that because he doesn't have a human being taking in the data and recording the reactions of the respondents as well as their answers.

I'll bet that question gives some insight into Zogby's secret sauce if I had the ability to decipher it....which I don't.

I'd vote for the Wizard, McKinley.

Bizarre indeed!

I hang up on the multitude of political callers and pollsters in our battleground state, and I deep six any that come via email. The only time I answered a pollster was for a Newsweek poll on abortion about 10 years ago. I was disgusted by the twisted way they asked questions and reported results and vowed to keep my opnions to myself henceforth. (FreeRepublic excepted, of course!)

I just finished taking that survey. Found the questions unusual.

I'd vote for that tree that slapped Dorothy on the hand and said, "How'd you like somebody picking your apples?"

I'm on the Zogby contact list and took this yesterday. I teach psychology and recognized the factors you mentioned and where a clear conflict existed with my own philosophy which I could not reconcile, I refused the question. Overall, I enjoy taking the Zogby polls. This one was bizarre.

I thought the poll would just ask "Bush or Kerry"
