In the aftermath of the recent Presidential Election, some efforts are beyond words. Excerpts are below, but worth the read in its entirety.
.Zogby Engages in Apparent Push Polling for Right-Wing Website
.
The conservative website HowObamaGotElected.com reports that it has commissioned Zogby International to conduct a poll of 512 Barack Obama voters as part of what can best be described as a viral marketing effort to discredit the intelligence of Obama supporters.
.
The website, created by former radio talk show host John Ziegler to promote a forthcoming documentary, features a YouTube clip of interviews with 12 Obama voters who "were chosen for their apparent intelligence/verbal abilities and willingness to express their opinions to a large audience". The clip portrays the Obama supporters as giving "incorrect" answers to political questions such as "which candidate said his policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket". Of the 12 Obama supporters interviewed for the clip, 7 (58%) are black; nationwide, about 23% of Obama supporters were black according to the national exit poll.

First of all, even the fraud that called the Zogby poll a "push poll" has backed off that bogus allegation. Secondly, are you saying you are a racist?

You missed the best part of this with the interview and the comments.

Although his explanation may have seemed satisfactory to himself, with which I disagree, one might make a comparable argument about McCain and Palin. Ziegler is a right wing hack that has a backer. You won't hear from him again after he swift boats Obama.
If corporations own the media and it's well controlled how does this man believe Obama got preferential treatment when McCain skated? There is sooooooo much tv ignored because he was a POW.
Wait a minute! Just wait a minute! Obama voters are uninformed? How about the nummies who voted for McCain? Documentary? Presenting facts? Coming from Ziegler why is that not believable? This is his one shot 15 minutes.
