Any thoughts?

6. sad but true

I think it is closer to 40% that think he screwed up the economy, everyone else thinks he's doing OK.

9. I hope your are wrong . . . but I'm afraid you are right.

We need that "screwed the economy" to be up around 60% for real.

15. By scientific, I mean representative of the population.

For that, the sample must be "randomly selected" and of sufficient size. Internet polls are not randomly selected . . . therefore, the results are meaningless. They may or may not be representative of the population.

10. 2888 responses ....62.7% say "wrecking the economy"

[havocmom]

12. voted, of course, but worry that when we advertise a poll

the freeps who monitor this site pounce on the them. Anyway we could just set up a private message tree to get the word out without using the board to do it? Just wondering as we know there are lurkers who post info they get here on the freep boards. Don't really like doing half their work for them.

Notice the use of the word "shepherd".
