I actually experienced the making of Zogby's special sauce when I was polled last week. Here's how it works. For each question in the survey there are a set of valid answers. In my case, the interviewer did not offer to name the valid answers. Many of the questions I could answer excellent or good but some questions were less clear and I prompted the guy to tell me the choices. At one point I provided an answer and then, testing his interpretation of my answer, asked him which valid he chose, he got it WRONG.

So there you have it. Poll interviewers "interpret" answers and Zogby "interprets" the results.

Interesting. And somehow he is the king of the polling hill. In a way, his poll reflects my fears. I'll just hope for the best.

Sounds like a personality test.
