I just participated in a Zogby Presidential approval poll!!!
Somehow I signed up to get e-mailed polls from them. They started sending them to me a couple weeks ago and have been sending about 2 a week. This latest one was a presidental approval poll.

The weirdest part about it was that during the demographics section, one of the questions was "Do you enjoy NASCAR?". Is that slang for "Are you a southern hick?" (No offense to southerners or hicks)

1. AGH!! So THAT is now the secret handshake!
In days gone by, it used to be "Do you watch the LAWRENCE WELK SHOW???"

Fools, I will bet you can find as many people who hate this fucking war at NASCAR as you can watching LW reruns on PBS!!!!

3. There are an awful lot of people in this part of PA (western)
who enjoy NASCAR, and I definitely wouldn't characterize them as hicks.

Interesting...I wonder what the correlation is?

6. I've been on Zogby's list since before the elections and that NASCAR
question puzzled me too. Since they're obviously trying to cubbyhole voters, I thought they'd throw in one for us progressives, such as "Do you enjoy reading books without pictures?"

8. I participated in that too.
Thanks to the DUer who posted the Zogby sign-up link last week!

I thought the NASCAR question was kind of funny. I was tempted to put yes just so they would think I was in that demographic and still hated the Shrub, but decided to be honest instead.
