Wenzel Strategies. Poll headed by a Birther

I found a poll by Wenzel Strategies where Romney leads Obama by 2% in a post-debate poll. However, the CEO of this company, Fritz Wenzel, once said:

"Our polling shows that the questions surrounding Barack Obama's eligibility to serve as president clearly strike a nerve across America, probably because it is a problem that everybody understands. Every American citizen has a birth certificate, and once in a while we all have to produce them to get a drivers license or gain entrance to school .... And while Obama did get in to the White House, nearly half the country's adults -- 49 percent -- are troubled by this issue and still want him to produce his official long-form birth certificate."


I have seen a dramatic rise in the number of pollsters out there with a conflict of interest. Add this one to the list. Recommended article: http://conwebwatch.tripod.com/stories/2010/wenzel.html

Other ethical issues about Wenzel are mentioned in the link above.
