4. This poll should be thrown into the dumpster. Flawed to the point of absurdity

71 percent of those polls were age 45 and older.
Only 15 percent of those polled were under the age of 34.

Folks, you can't make this stuff up.

54 percent of those polled were women
46 percent of those polled were men

Monmouth really knows how to fuck up polling--to the point where what they're doing is closer to making waffles than polling.

And here it comes...the lively and always irascible commentary from Hillarian dinner theater:

"OMG Sheila, look at her unskewing the polls!! Unskew! Unskew!"

"I know, right Becky? It's all a big polling conspiracy! LOLOLLLL!"

"Under the bus we go with Monmouth! So totally getting crowded under there."

Whatever. Enjoy your "poll".
