I had planned on replying to your comment last night, but just as I started writing it, the power went out here for a couple of hours. I too was wondering about Luntz’s so-called group of independent voters. I hadn’t heard all of his explanation about how they were chosen, and thank you for posting it. I had caught the last few minutes where he asked those same people questions about the debate. They were the same people he had shown earlier in the evening. I did catch that they were all from Nevada, and wondered if they hadn’t lied their way into a free trip to Vegas. It just seemed strange that no one in that group pointed out any problems with Obama’s performance in the debate, because we all know there were plenty. It was all negative stuff about McCain, so one has to believe that Luntz heavily edited the tapes to make it look positive toward Obama.
A focus group in Wilkes-Barre PA, moderated by the local paper, went heavily for McCain in the debate.
Luntz is a hack out to make a buck, and he cares for naught about Intellectual Honesty. FOX should dump him, FOX would be better off having Campbell Brown run their Fair and Balanced Polls!
