I think you misunderstood the poll question.

That isn't all that surprising, considering the inscrutable way in which it was phrased.

What precisely are we passing judgment on?

Whether or not we believe the "port deal" was "bad?"

Or are we being asked to decide whether the fact that the "port deal" was withdrawn is "bad for America?"

It would help if the people who designed the poll didn't intentionally-or inadvertently, as the case may be-mangle the question.

Perhaps a less incomprehensible poll question would have yielded more decisive results, no?

Hoo boy, it's like those ballot propositions where you vote No if you mean Yes.

Well, I got it wrong cuz I'm just a ignerant hick that wants what's best for America.
