Just Got Polled By Rasmussen: A Lot Of Bill Clinton Questions
Worst, best pres ever or in the middle

Does he support Obama

Are the media or Clintons the source of the tension between campaigns

They asked McBush, Obama, and Congress.

Are most members corrupt

Are most members more interested in their careers rather than their jobs

Will they pass meaningful legislation in the next year.

It was a long poll. It surprised me how they kept coming back to Clinton, though I can't remember all the questions they asked about him

1. For those that don't think the media is pushing this so-called divisiveness
Please see above.

VERY illuminating.

5. Classic push poll questions. Total manipulation.
The aim of that kind of polling is to control and manipulate the political narrative. Remember that about Rasmussen.

13. Rassmusen doesn't do Push-Polling
You guys have to remember something. An entity contacts Ras or Gallup or Harris, etc. to do a pool for them and supply them with the questions. I do polling all the time for various businesses. The questions aren't asked because my research company has an agenda. It is asked on behalf of my client.

These are not push-poll questions.

Re. Bill Clinton
Are the media or Clintons the source of the tension between campaigns?

11. Honest
My feeling was I didn't give a damn and when I hit the number for liberal was glad to do so. Also, as they were given a perfect set of answers from me, I hope they realize that. :rofl:

10. That's very antiDem polling - typical Rasmussen. No matter how you answer it smears entire party.
Just as intended. Rove and Luntz probably fed Rasmussen the questions.

16. Question - If you have caller id, what displayed when the call came through?
Just wondering if they identify themselves as Rasmussen or if they show up as unknown. TIA. :-)
