I wish this dude would have interviewed McCain voters too. It would really give this video more credibility.

What this proves is Wes is to lazy to read the hyperlink with the pol data: Zogby Poll

512 Obama Voters 11/13/08-11/15/08 MOE +/- 4.4 points

97.1% High School Graduate or higher, 55% College Graduates

Results to 12 simple Multiple Choice Questions

57.4% could NOT correctly say which party controls congress (50/50 shot just by guessing)

71.8% could NOT correctly say Joe Biden quit a previous campaign because of plagiarism (25% chance by guessing)

82.6% could NOT correctly say that Barack Obama won his first election by getting opponents kicked off the ballot (25% chance by guessing)

88.4% could NOT correctly say that Obama said his policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket (25% chance by guessing)

56.1% could NOT correctly say Obama started his political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground (25% chance by guessing).

And yet…..

Only 13.7% failed to identify Sarah Palin as the person on which their party spent $150,000 in clothes

Only 6.2% failed to identify Palin as the one with a pregnant teenage daughter

And 86.9 % thought that Palin said that she could see Russia from her “house,” even though that was Tina Fey who said that!!

Only 2.4% got at least 11 correct.

Only .5% got all of them correct. (And we “gave” one answer that was technically not Palin, but actually Tina Fey)

once again…this proves what?

that anybody can make up poll numbers and sway a video to make obama voters look…not informed on obama, but know who palin is.

It’s like shooting a 30 seconds tv ad with stand up “talent”. the talents has 10 seconds to speak, but they speak for 45 seconds, as a producer, you need to tell the talent what to say and what not to say to get the 10 seconds. just say this…bam…you have your 10 second bit for your spot.

Let’s ask impossible questions to get the “i don’t know” answer, doing alittle editing and throw in the “real/fake” question.

It’s all in the producing and editing.

Questions: Do you like Bugs Bunny?

Answer: (over the top) Oh, yeah, I love him.

in editing put in vo of “real question”: Do you know or like William Ayers?

all in the producing and editing. make something out of nothing.

Yes Wes, you needn’t explain to me how to edit a video to show results that you wish to convey. The video however accurately demonstrates the poll results of a highly regarded polling company that is noted for it’s accuracy and integrity.
What you are implying is something altogether different.
There are legal ramifacations that could be brought into play if the scenario you suggest occured.
What you are trying to do is, kill the messenger, the fact of the matter is you just don’t like the message.
The message being that Obama’s campaign was one big marketing campaign to uninformed morons, selling the Hope & Change product and his electorate bought it hook line and sinker.
How else could a small time Liberal Jr. Senator with an Arabic name who was part of the corrupt Chicago political machine who associated with extreme radicals, who attended a racist & American hating church, whose parents were 1. a Kenyan Marxist and 2. an avowed Marxist with a penchant for marrying foreign nationals…
You just don’t like being lumped into the same category as the uniformed morons who are being interviewed in this video.
The real question is WHY DID YOU VOTE FOR HIM?
A.
1. Because He’s not George Bush
2. Bush Lied and people died
3.George Bush stole the election from Al Gore
4.Geogre Bush stole the election from John Kerry.
5.George Bush is the devil
6.George bush can’t pronounce ‘nuclear” the way we like
7. No Blood for oil!…
etc. etc. etc.

The Obama campaign did a masterful job of campaigning against George Bush. This election had more to do with defeating Bush than it did McCain.

I work with many intelligent - though misguided - people who flat out said they were voting for Obama because of George Bush. McCain didn’t factor into the picture.

I find it extrememly irresponsible to pick a candidate because you don’t like the current, lame duck administration.

Hilter could have run on the DemocRAT ticket under the same underlying direction that Obama’s marketing team used and won the election. The Obama team did a fantastic job blaming George Bush for all the ills of the nation.

The problem is this … The President has no control over the economy. Much to the dismay of the DemocRATS this is still a free market (although it probably won’t be for much longer). What the idiots who wander around this country in a state of narcisistic fog don’t realize is Congress controls the purse strings of the Federal Government. And the economy went deep into the shitter under the watch of that raving Idiot Speaker of the House and the doddering fool who is the Senate Majority Leader. You know the guy … the one who thinks that the citizens who visit Washington smell bad. These are the idiots that played a major part in the sacking of the economy, along with their money machine partners at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. And now they are in charge for another 4 years. How bright the future looks. I’ll bet that Miss Nancy thinks the country looks to be in great shape as she flies over it in her private, Air Force jet - the one that the tax payers fund.

So Wes, you want to walk around with your chest all puffed out because you voted against George Bush and finally beat him? You go right ahead, you’ve got a lot of company … just watch the video again to see the company you keep.
