What I see on GALLUP makes NO sense
FIRST of all, they have McInsane up 49-44 over Obama - then directly to the right side of that on the same page is this:

September 4, 2008
Employee perceptions of the job market worsened in August as Gallup’s Net New Hiring Activity measure fell the most since May.

Given the way this indicator has related to government figures, it suggests the economy lost more than 75,000 jobs and the unemployment rate increased to 5.8% or more last month.



A Low-Quality Job Makes a Tough Economy Tougher
September 3, 2008

The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index finds more than half of Americans in high-quality jobs (56%) are thriving, and more than half of those in low-quality jobs (56%) struggling.



Majority of Americans Approve of Labor Unions
September 1, 2008
While only 8% of Americans report belonging to a labor union, 59% of Americans say they approve of labor unions.

_ _ _ _ _


WHAT is wrong with this picture then? Is MCINSANE going to help the job market or promote unions? NOOOOOOoooo. He's not. So WHY are so many idiots planning to vote for him?


BIG disconnect here....
