Zogby asks, "Who would you cast to star in a movie about Hillary, Obama, McCain?"
Edited on Sat Feb-16-08 12:25 PM by paxmusa
I thought these questions were a little strange.

A movie about Hillary:

Martha Stewart
Reese Witherspoon
Madonna
Ellen DeGeneres


A movie about Obama:

Don Cheadie
Will Smith
Denzel Washington
Tyra Banks (what??)


A movie about McCain:

Tommy Lee JOnes
Clint Eastwood
Tom Cruise
Matt Damon


This was followed by, "What candidate would you like to have a cocktail with?"

I thought it was interesting that is was a cocktail and not a beer.

1. Pandering to the "People Magazine" crowd..
...sure, politics are informative and all, but celebrities are, like, movie stars n' stuff!

9. Cocktails with Kucinich
Hillary Glenn Close
Obama A younger Sidney Poitier
McCain A younger Kirk Douglas

Cocktails with Kucinich (Sounds like a talk show) I think he would be more fun that these three.

18. wow, that's offensive.
Edited on Sat Feb-16-08 12:36 PM by lwfern
wasn't aware that zogby was into such a pathetic display of pushpolling. That's sad.

Suggested zogby poll question:

If I used my polling influence to associate various candidates with negative stereotypes in the minds of the general public, would you think more of me or less of me?
