Lean: Very Conservative Gender:  | Democrats on the wrong side The survey was conducted nationwide February 5-7 among a bi-partisan, cross-section of 800 registered voters. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percent. The survey was commissioned by The Moriah Group, a Chattanooga-based strategic communications and public affairs firm. DRUDGE REPORT FLASH 2007®

| Re: Democrats on the wrong side Heh heh according to Drudge, the survey was done by the "VA-based Public Opinion Strategies (POS)." You'd have to wonder about an organization that calls itself by a name whose initials are "POS."
From their website: The Republican polling firm of Public Opinion Strategies (POS) ...
I thought the results as reported by Drudge seemed contradictory. On the one had, 57% supported "finishing the job in Iraq, that is, keeping the troops there until the Iraqi government can maintain control and provide security and the Iraqi war is a key part of the global war on terrorism." Yet 49% "call for immediate withdrawal or a strict timetable."
Maybe 8% think that the "Iraqi government can maintain control and provide security and the Iraqi war is a key part of the global war on terrorism" already so it's OK to bring the troops home immediately or on a strict timetable.

No I don't. They are not an unknown polling group. They primarily hire out to Republican campaigns to provide them with data on public opinion. Even the Republicans need accurate polling data. This is the data they found out.
Have you replied in kind yet to the question you asked me? |

| What question? You mean what I do for a living? Why do you keep asking over and over when I have made it quite clear that 1) it is none of you business and 2) I am not going to tell you.
In case I have been at all unclear: 1) it is none of you business and 2) I am not going to tell you. |

I wouldn't think this would have to made clear, but harassing someone to reveal personal information about themselves is strictly prohibited on this forum. Cease and desist immediately. |

If you don't want to reveal it don't ask it. |
