Um, these POLL TAPES, aren't they PUBLIC INFORMATION? And isn't this what Freedom of Information Act is all about?

If we're talking about PUBLIC INFORMATION, then why is it being kept under wraps by private citizens??? Movie fodder, perhaps?

If you're worried about the other side getting an advantage by "seeing all the cards," I have news for you: the other side sees "all the cards" anyway through a process called Discovery in court.
