Dumbest Poll Question In History

I gotta say, asking if Bush would win a matchup against a hypothetical Democrat is the dumbest question ever asked in a political poll. We had a poll on this, and Bush won. We’re three years away from the next general election, and Bush will not be a nominee. This poll simply makes no sense.

Now, what polls do make sense are approval ratings, and at his current state it’s no wonder that Republicans around the country don’t want to be seen with him. So I hope he does a lot of stumping for the GOP next year… if his term lasts that long.

>> Virginia Republican gubernatorial candidate Jerry W. Kilgore has decided not to attend President Bush’s appearance in Norfolk on Friday

    Well, of course Bush would still win if the election were held today. It’s not like they wouldn’t smear the heck out of whoever ran against him–with a big assist from the “press” corps.

    If Bush doesn’t watch it, he’ll be as unwelcome on the stump as Howard Dean.

    Oliver, the poll is moronic. The true question is - is Bush implicit in the outing of a CIA undercover operative? My heart sinks when I don’t see Democrats on the offense at a time when the GOP is shooting themselves in the foot. I want to see them using talking points: SAFETY, SECURITY, SALARY. Because that’s what everyone under the Bush presidency doesn’t have. “Democrats will Bring Safety to your communities, Security to the country, and a Salary to your family. We want to run the country, not just run for office. Vote Democrat.”

    Are you seriously comparing the political capital of the president of the united states to the fricking party chairman of the opposition? Oh, how low we have fallen.

    Hey, Quaker, did you see my answer to your question about the document that Al Franken signed in the thread from yesterday?

    It’s on page 45, Schedule 15.2.4.,  AAR Liabilities

     $875,000 claimed by the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club& .

    Take a look. I’d like to have someone explain how Franken didn t lie when he said he knew nothing about it.

    Who or what is MSU?

    Yes, Tuco. I seem to be trapped in moderation mode on that thread. Be patient.

    MSU = Making Stuff Up.

     Democrats will Bring … Salary to your family”

    Interesting…Are they going to have government mandates on wages for everyone?

     Democrats will Bring & Salary to your family

    I’ll bring salary to my family, thank you. Always have, always will. No matter which party is in power.

    How pathetic.

    Maybe Bush’s poll ratings will affect the election on the “West Wing.”

    What a stupid poll!
