Thomas Sowell article ping. While this article focuses on a winning approach to minority voters, his primary message is just like yours in WTF ... "Polls and focus groups are not a substitute for thought."
SO FUNNY you pinged me on this...I just finished reading Sowell's piece on RCP before coming over to FR. And yes, the line about polls and focus groups was the key quote.
