Or they do know, but they get confused. Perhaps some very savvy people are gaming things, but I bet ignorance is the much better answer (like that famous poll from the 1970s where people were asked how they felt about the fictitious "Public Affairs Act" - a third of people still managed to have an opinion!).DavidNYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01014375473989377030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-22526994054913234842009-12-07T13:50:39.987-05:002009-12-07T13:50:39.987-05:00The poll as a whole is fine!

Hope to see another PPP poll in the field soon to try to figure out which way is up for us here in SC.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-62606146804134166572009-12-07T13:14:53.251-05:002009-12-07T13:14:53.251-05:00No. What's happened here is that the meaning o...No. What's happened here is that the meaning of the word "liberal" has been abused to meaninglessness. There are points south where I hear it used as a pejorative, the way teenagers use "gay."Matt Osbornehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00775385227870993490noreply@blogger.com
