What you should have said (0+ / 0-)
Instead of that, you might want to ask why in G-d's name they use Zogby for their daily tracking poll.
He is making ARG look good. He claims that McCain actually polled 48 to Obama's 47 in yesterday's sample.
Of course, Nate Silver at 538 is all over this and how Zogby plays games with his numbers to get the result he wants.
C-Span is supposed to be totally neutral and generally they are just that. Using Zogby undercuts their neutrality.

I always looked at C-Span like “Caesar’s wife, ‘must be above suspicion.’” It was embarrassing hearing Zogby this morning on C-Span. He sounded like a child begging for candy. His report was awful! I am mindful the station has asked us for feed-back regarding them going into the polling business as an adjunct to their morning program.
As always,
