Media Lies - Two Polls -: (Via Dayfdd) " 'Another point the 'two' polls share: they both wildly overpolled Democrats — 52% of the respondents were Democrats, 40% were Republicans, and 8% were independents; that is, they polled almost a third more Democrats than Republicans.'

It's obvious that the AP wasn't attempting to accurately gauge public opinion, or they would have done a better job of getting a representative sample."

Use of polls as an attempt to push public opinion, not measure it.
