45% Suspect Obama Team Involved in Blagojevich Scandal

Rasmussen Reports™: The most comprehensive public opinion coverage ever provided for a presidential election.

Forty five percent (45%) of U.S. voters say it is likely President-elect Obama or one of his top campaign aides was involved in the unfolding Blagojevich scandal in Illinois, including 23% who say it is Very Likely.

Just 11% say it is not at all likely, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey taken Thursday and Friday nights


45+23= a whopping 68% think the obama camp were involved...


only 11% say not likley at all...



Are 68% of the people wrong? What do you think?
 
It's funny how in the article they keep refering to the statistics as "US voters". The people they actually do call do not represent all US voters. They represent the people who actually take time to take those telephone surveys and cannot be used as a whole or their answers as the full truth.

Oh indeed. Polls are for strippers. I found this one quite humorous though....


I have never been polled, and If I was I'd prolly just hang up. :mrgreen:
 
I don't see why you're so interested in this. Politicians in the US have been corrupt since it was founded, and Chicago's the first place you should expect this kind of thing.
 
Most people are so retarded that all you have to do it repeatedly put two names together in the same sentence and they'll believe they're connected. Sort of like the 9/11-Saddam syndrome.
 
What I do find interesting is the left wingers here acting as if the obama camp had no involvement in this scandal as if it were proven fact yet.


True believers?

Is there any evidence that Obama is involved?

So much for "change".
 
Himself? No, actually I don't.


However I think "ramhbo" and others may have been on his behalf without obama's knowing.

Thanks for the honesty. What do you think of the people who believe, without factual evidence, that he was involved?
 
Believe or believe that it is likley?

I'm not feeling too picky at the moment, so I'll go with "both." Although, without any factual evidence, why would any reasonable human being even think it was likely?

You're absolutely correct. Its amazing how many people wrongfully believe that Bush stated Saddam had a hand in 9/11

Believe it?

The same way I think of the posters in this thread who are adamant that he was not involved.


"more than likley" believers, I think are expressing an opinion giving the current information we have.

Do you believe that proximity of images and names doesn't have an impact on a sizable population of people?

Not for anyone that pays attention.

Well, I can only speak for myself, which is that I'm taking the "passive atheist" stance. In other words, until factual evidence unfolds that Obama was related in some way to the scandal, I'm just going to assume he wasn't.

"more than likley" believers, I think are expressing an opinion giving the current information we have.

And what "current information" would those opinions be based on?
 
Not for anyone that pays attention.

I'm guessing you would agree then. And do you think that, knowing people would be so stupid as to draw correlation from proximity, someone just might exploit that?
 
He's definitely involved. He told Bagojevich to **** off in just about the nicest way possible

"They're not willing to give me anything except appreciation. **** them."

Also, due to the title (45% suspect...) I think that the 'very likely' 23% is a subset of the 'likely' 45%, making the total 45%, not 68%
