1. I Quit Zogby

I used to take their polls all the time...not any more. Many were skewed or were extremely intrusive (wanting to know what I bought or my preferences on specific products...that I'm sure were sold.

Polling is a dying "science" in the way these pollsters do it. Few people either answer a phone or have one anymore...and the "universe" or number of people sampled gets smaller each election.

The game with pollsters is not to be right or even close...it's to make noise...put out an outlier and get all sorts of network talking heads citing the poll...even if they're wrong, it's still getting the name out there that Zogby cares about.

2. I don't take 'em anymore, either.

Hell, they don't even give you free points worth merchandise, like the other pollsters! :P
