More Putrid Polling

By Miss Kubelik

What were we just saying? To counter a media poll that has Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) smooshing his Republican opponent, "Monica Wehby," by 18 points, the Wehby campaign released an internal poll by The Tarrance Group that shows her within striking distance.

The Tarrance Group???!? Hilarious. Tarrance is a Republican pollster. They belong to — you know — the party that doesn't believe in science, math or logic. Why should we trust any poll by them?

One of Tarrance's taglines is (see above) "Know Your World." Ironically, Republican pollsters' problem is that they don't know their world at all. If you don't understand — or reject — the universe of voters, you can't poll. But that's peculiar to the GOP, isn't it? So we cats PURR.
