Zinging Zogby
U.S. News- Washington Whispers ^ | 12/09/2002 | Paul Bedard

Republican leaders have put out a contract on pollster John Zogby. Known for his accuracy, the GOP says he got too many midterm congressional races wrong and provided bad advice. "He's out," says a top Senate GOP aide. Incoming House Majority Leader Tom DeLay echoes that message to House members. Of course, it didn't help that Zogby worked for DeLay's foe. Zogby shrugs the critics off. "I'd continue to pay attention to me."

LOL, Zogby's "special sauce" has gotten rancid lately. He can make a good living being a democrat party operative, telling them what they want to hear.

Zogby may have shown impartiality in the past, but his true colors are now showing. He now sounds militant when discussing Israel.

Zogby also ran the famous poll that showed us what our sweet neighbors to the south thought of us i.e. all your SW lands are belong to us. You can bet that when that baby issued Karl Rove promoted Zogby to Tom Tancredo status! Zogby has become increasingly open about his democrat, pro PLO stance and has apparently succumed to whatever virus is sweeping the Rat pack.

A contract?!!! What the heck kind of expression is that to use for this situation? Could you imagine this being said about the rats? I couldn't, because there would be an uproar among the annointed about "hate speech" and "inflammatory rhetoric", and "inciting to violence". Stupid media Clymers.

Zogby made his merit badge predicting the Dole debacle. His secret was in polling only those who intended to vote, which seems obvious in retrospect. His Arab ancestry has influenced his polling ever since 9/11. I don't think he deals in GOP vs Democrats.

This post is primarily to Admin. I have been on most of the day, but the last comment registered was one this am. Is there a problem with the system?

Pollesters have a problem. With cell phones and caller id they are showing signs of not getting very reliable polls. I have both and don't allow this type of organizations near me. We would all be better off is this people went out of business. Personally I am sick of all of the meaniless polling that goes on.

Darn it, you just gave them a new poll question: "Are you sick of all of the meaniless polling that goes on?"

Expect the phone call - it's coming, I'm sure.

Zogby is not accurate.

Unlike Debka which this week got a home run,
Zogby is an Arab proIslamic terror manipulator,
who is eager for an American Caliphate.

Should read; "He can DOES make a good living being a democrat party operative, telling them what they want to hear."

Woo! That's scary!

With the Muppets' mangling of "The Twelve Days of Christmas" in the background, I thought this read

SINGING Zogby

Scary!

"I don't think he deals in GOP vs Democrats." Can you say; 'naive'?
