USA exit poll flaws


I think that this is an important article for us in interpreting what has apparently gone on in USAmerican politics lately. This is mainly because of the ambiguity of the 'moral values' question as Jim Wallis here explains quit lucidly and helpfully. It certainly reframes the way that people over here are talking about the thing. It looks like the Zogby poll really needs an airng in this context.

Oh and in the same issue of the Sojourners mailing there was this factoid:
115,000: Number of hits made by U.S. users on the Canadian immigration Web site the day after the U.S. election.
20,000: Usual number of hits per day.
From CNN.

"Spend and tax" not "tax and spend"

 I got a response from my MP which got me kind of mad. You'll see why as I reproduce it here. Apologies for the strange changes in types...
