<![CDATA[Polling]]>So everyone asks "Have you ever been polled?" and the answer is usually no but last night Quinnipiac called me.

I was honest and found it to be somewhat a push poll.

(if that means steering for an expected or planned result)

One question was "What do you think has hurt McCains campaing the worst? Choice of Palin or association with GW Bush.

I thought about giving 'em a line of garlic but didn't.
