I received a push poll call yesterday. It was so stupid that I had the pollster laughing and admitting she hated republicans also.
I know these kinds of polls are effective as seen by McCain's loss in SC in 2000 when they pushed the idea that he had an out-of-wedlock black baby. But the questions they asked me were along the lines of (I'm exaggerating here but not by much)..."If you knew that Harry Mitchell ate the brains of baby rats...would you be more or less likely to vote for him?" or "if it was discovered that Harry Mitchell was harboring illegals in the basement of his house would you continue to support him?" I swear, those were the kinds of questions they asked.
Naturally I admitted that I could never support a candidate that didn't feast on rat brains and I would be disappointed if all Democratic candidates didn't smuggle illegals into Arizona just so we could stack the vote.
This is my third republican push poll over the years but I've never heard of one done by the democrats.
