OTOH, polls lie?

Sigh. This article is either about coded language or secret prejudice. Over at Politico:

“It’s human nature,” Langer wrote. “Some people who strongly oppose a person or proposition will take virtually any opportunity to express that antipathy.”

According to Langer, “calling Barack Obama a Muslim is - - for people who see this as a negative attribute - - a handy way to say you don’t like the guy.”

In other words, we should not get into a tizzy about religion when we read such polls.

Politico also says no one in Ohio wants Boehner as speaker of the House. Did they ask the question this way?

For Speaker of the House, whom do you prefer? 1) Nanny Pelosi   2) John Boehner

Meanwhile, The One is accusing Republicans of wanting to drive the car again, as if democrats haven't been driving since 2006.  Guess he figured no one would question him on that, which they haven't. Guess he figured people weren't TIRED OF THAT METAPHOR YET.
