MSNBC poll on immigration. You may be surprised!

Do you support the Arizona immigration law?


  • Total voters
    25
No, it says that the majority of the people who voted at that poll voted in support of the law. That is all it says.

We could interpret these results to mean lots of things.

We could decide that the right wing is so desperate to be right that they hired some skript kiddies to bomb the poll.

We could intuit that self-important right wing pundits advertised this poll and thus flooded it with their listeners and readers.

We could wonder if perhaps some random anonymous asshat decided to screw with the poll and thus give you a six-foot erection with a giant cheeseburger on the end of it.

Just saying.
Why a cheeseburger?
 
A poll with a non-random, non-representative sample is meaningless.

Because it doesn't go your way. If the tables were turned, it would be a sign from God that Obama is on the right track.
 
95% of the people who voted support the AZ law. Yes, that means alot more than squat.
Also
So far on this poll, 74% of us support the AZ law.:lol:
That's about the same amount of Arizonans who support it and it's just a little higher than the overall average of various polls I've seen.
Still don't get the 95% MSNBC poll, but who needs it. Even without it, the vast majority of Americans support AZ.
Another case of our government turning a deaf ear to the American people.
 
Please compare and contrast a scientific poll vs. a non scientific poll. I'm betting you wish the results "[didn't] mean squat," but they actually do. The fact that the spread is so large definitely means something. Is it 100% accurate? Probably not, but it's not meaningless!
I would bet two bits that those who were in the scientific poll couldn't name the provisions of the Arizona law. Also, as a general rule polls have very low participation rates. I think you have to look at one's motivation for participating in the poll. Is there a bias built in this poll?
 
Because it doesn't go your way. If the tables were turned, it would be a sign from God that Obama is on the right track.

If you're accusing me of partisan hackery, I'd like to see your evidence. Otherwise, back off. You haven't the foggiest clue what my "way" is.
