Interesting poll question from a leading poll company:
Are you planning to relocate to another nation for more than two years for reasons other than the requirements of the military, the government or your job?

This was presented after I selected Democrat ;) I wonder who's asking them to measure this?

Telling, doncha think?

I didn't know that. Somedays I get frustrated and want to leave but then I remember what I'm fighting for and decide to stay.

3. Yup, just answered this one on Zogby's pole.
My guess is that lots of people are at least considering leaving. I'm waiting to see if Fitz indicts all of these criminals first, if not, then I am seriously considering it.

7. Are you vs would you..
Are you implies that you are planning to go..not many takers, probably..

WOULD YOU (if you could afford to) would be a far more interesting question..

I say I would, but in reality, we could not do it because of so many things...money being #1....

For people who are secure financially , and could afford to fly home for medical reasons, or afford to pay for medical in their new homeland, I would suspect that a lot have planned or will soon plan their "escape"..

Young folks with a degree who have few encumbrances should really consider it.. Even if they return someday, and overseas adventure can be very wonderful..

8. Who's tracking it? The DLC...
I sure as hell plan on emigrating in the next year or so...

I'm thinking Canadian Grad school, or teaching English overseas.

9. I doubt the question was asked only of Dems
All those initial questions - are you likely to vote, what party are you registered in, who was your 04 POTUS pick - are on every Zogby poll.

What I found interesting was that the rest of the poll only asked if I was a fan of the national baseball, football or hockey leagues. Maybe the leagues are trying to decide whether or not to expand their franchises overseas. ;)

11. I assumed that the sports questions
Were about the steroid hullabaloo.

I was wondering if it was steered by party though.

12. I got this poll tonight...
The Zogby polls aren't as much fun as the Harris polls, but they do ask interesting questions. I am staying until 2007 so I can work on the primary campaign in New Hampshire. But if we get Diebold'ed again in 2008, I am close enough to our porous Canadian border to get through right quick :)

Unfortunately, the world is only so big, and the neocons intend to control all of it...
