Today CNN announced that "The CNN Poll will become the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll" -

Press release - CNN and Opinion Research Announce Formal Polling Partnership

PRINCETON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Opinion Research Corporation, a leading provider of global market research and consulting services, today announced the establishment of a formal polling partnership with CNN, one of the world's most respected and trusted sources for news and information. The CNN Poll will become the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll.

"Opinion Research Corporation's reputation for independent, objective analysis and its excellent reputation in the industry make the firm the ideal polling partner for CNN," said Sam Feist, CNN's Political Director. "As the network gears up to offer the most in-depth and expansive coverage of the 2008 election, Opinion Research Corporation will be a key part of giving viewers the accurate and relevant information they demand to help them make decisions."

Based on the history of the people who recently acquired Opinion Research Corp., we believe that the true purpose of the CNN/Opinion Research partnership is to rig the poll results to benefit Hillary Clinton in her 2008 presidential campaign.

Opinion Research was purchased last year by InfoUSA. InfoUSA is controlled by a hard-core Clintonista named Vinod Gupta.

Gupta is a major Clinton/DNC donor and fundraiser, and Lincoln Bedroom guest. He has recently spent large sums to establish these Clinton-worship centers in India -

The Bill Clinton Science and Technology Center

Gochar Intermediate College, Rampur Maniharan

The Center was founded to help Scientists, Engineers and Doctors better perform their duties in a professional manner and be a part of the process of technological advancement. The campus covers more than 10 acres and is home to Physics, Biology, Chemistry and Agricultural Labs and a Computer Science Center. It is Vinod's desire that some of those who study at the WJCST Center gain admission to medical and engineering colleges.

The Hillary Rodham Clinton Mass Communication Center

Having provided a basic curriculum at the Women's Polytechnic and Science Center, Vinod now has bigger plans to transform the lives of young men and women. This new center will include training in Journalism, Communications, Public Relations, Media Management, Television Presentation/Anchoring and Web Design.

Gupta manipulated InfoUSA's acquisition of Opinion Research to his personal benefit last year by purchasing shares in Opinion Research, then using his position as chairman of InfoUSA to orchestrate the acquisition of O.R.C. at a nearly 100% premium - thus driving up the value of his O.R.C. shares at the expense of his IUSA shareholders. This sleazy transaction was described last year in a New York Times article

Due to adverse publicity during an IUSA proxy battle last year, Gupta removed his personal web site (www.vingupta.com) which contained several photos of him getting cozy with the Clintons.

We have obtained several photos of Gupta getting hot and sweaty with the Clintons from his deleted web site -

Given the close personal and financial ties between the man who controls Opinion Research Corp. and the Clintons, we believe that the CNN/Opinion Research polling results are hopelessly tainted and intended to benefit Hillary Clinton's presidential bid. CNN either failed to perform due diligence on their partner, or they are complicit in this polling sham.

Ain't no bias here. This story should come up again and again, every time CNN publishes a poll.

[Bokababe]

Great Job!

CNN = "CLINTON NEWS NETWORK" That's what Serbs were calling it back in the 1990's during the break up of Yugoslavia, and it rings just as true today.

[sageb1]

lol! Should have read the thread to the end! My bad.

[Sword_Svalbardt]

How fun...

[freekitty]

I see the Clintons have already started the re-training process of brainwashing of people so Hillary can have her robots in place. Do these people want to rule the world. I would say the answer is "yes".

[Miss Marple]

I need to go back and read those threads, I think we will be seeing a lot of those names resurface over the next year.

Thanks for the ping!

[Drango]

Great catch...good on ya!

[Howlin]

Not all my work, believe me.

[Shelayne]

Wow! This is unbelievable, but why am I even surprised??

Great work!

[JennysCool]

Damn fine work, ma'am!

[cmsgop]

You found a Bombshell indeed,Well Done

[cmsgop]

HOLY CRAP!


I know that Putz, this family is like the Mafia

[SeaBiscuit]

Great work Howlin..excellent. 8 years and counting to the untold amount of damage the Clinton's have done to this country.. and here we go again.. incredibly maddening and scary that we just can't seem to get rid of the Clintons.

This could be most useful bit of work and a good thing if it can somehow be turned around on the evil duo.

Thanks for all you do. :-)

You will soon be appointed the US ambassador to the Bermudas. This would make you the first man of Indian origin to represent the US as its envoy to a country. How do you feel?

I really cannot comment on that right now. There have only been rumours. I have received nothing official as yet. But if it does come through and it is offered to me then it will be a great honour. But so far, there’s nothing official about it and that’s why I cannot comment on it.

CLINTON PAL EYEBALLED (InfoUSA CEO Vinod Gupta)
New York Post ^ | October 2, 2005 | TIM ARANGO

Posted on 10/02/2005 12:24:01 AM PDT by HAL9000

VINOD Gupta, a high- living CEO pal and fundraiser to the Clintons, is being accused of looting his company's coffers and using shareholder money to fund his lavish lifestyle.

Gupta, the CEO of InfoUSA, an Omaha, Neb.-based database company, is coming under fire from investors, including Cardinal Capital, the Greenwich, Conn.-based hedge fund whose last target was newspaper baron Conrad Black, for a variety of alleged offenses, including funneling InfoUSA funds through private companies he controls to pay for things such as jet travel, a fancy yacht and a skybox at University of Nebraska football games.

Gupta did not return a call placed to his office in Omaha.

Despite presiding over a company in a decidedly unsexy industry in an unsexy locale, Gupta moves in elite social circles. He was a guest of the Clintons at the White House, staying in the Lincoln Bedroom, donated $1 million to the Clinton library and helped Hillary Clinton raise money for her senate campaign.

Excerpt from Slate Magazine, May 22, 1997 - The Kiddie-Cash Caper

The Gupta family of Omaha, Neb., is among the more generous sources of student cash. Vinod Gupta is the founder and CEO of American Business Information. Campaign gifts totaling $143,000 tied him at No. 135 on the Mother Jones list of top contributors. His sons, Jess (age 17), Benjamin (14), and Alexander (11), gave an additional $12,000. All this went to two campaigns--Clinton's and Nebraska Gov. Ben Nelson's--in which the senior Gupta had reached his maximum.

Jess, a student at Philips Exeter Academy, freely admits he had nothing to do with the donations. "Dad makes those donations in my name," he says. Vinod Gupta insists his son was misquoted.

In fact, all the money came from trust funds set up in the names of the children, according to their father. This is a common practice among the kiddie-cash set. Yet the FEC has ruled in the past that donations from a source over which the donor does not have sole control are illegal.

Excellent, excellent work, Howlin.

My comment:

Never has so much been done to so little.

Missus clinton is such an unappealing and dull character that she requires all sorts of protheses, props, promotions, protections, pretensions and phony polls to make her marginally acceptable... to HER side.

Such an elaborate construction exposes clinton's fundamental weakness and her pathological sense of entitlement; it should be a warning to the Democrats. But will it be?
