POLLING: truthful or craptastic?
CNN reports on MoveOn.org's ad questioning the Gallup survey methodology: MoveOn claims they exaggerate Republican support. Disclosure: CNN is partnered with Gallup for polling purposes in the Presidential election
FRank Newport responds: "This ad seems to have more misstatements of fact than most".. "First and foremost, they put in quotes from George Gallup (ret.)" "This methodology has been extremely accurate in election after election"
Note that neither CNN nor Gallup guy report on the 'methodology' problems that MoveOn is reporting on:
"This ad seems to be somewhat more egregious than usual" - What is egregious is not addressing the central issue that has been raised.
