Freakin' Polls!

* Michelle Malkin does it again with this hard hitting examination of two recent worldwide polls. Brilliant analysis of the idiocy that runs rampant in the world today.
* I was looking over an AP poll recently and found myself dumbfounded by the time I finished the article/poll. Here is the part I read through, but could not believe or understand (keep in mind that the poll found that McCain had a slight 4 point lead)...
WASHINGTON (AP) -
"Eighty percent (of those interviewed) say McCain, with nearly three decades in Congress, has the right experience to be president. Just 46 percent say Obama, now in his fourth year in the Senate, is experienced enough. Another 47 percent say Obama lacks the proper experience—an even worse reading than the 36 percent who had the same criticism about Palin, now in her second year as governor after serving as a small-town mayor in her state...

Asked to choose between a presidential candidate with solid experience and another whose values and views they support, two-thirds picked the latter. While those preferring experience overwhelmingly back McCain, people seeking agreement with a contender's values say they'll back Obama over McCain, 56 percent to 38 percent...

Even so, McCain has a slight 9-point advantage when people were asked whether they had similar values and principles with the candidates, and an 8-point edge over whether they agreed with the contenders' stances on issues." (Emphasis added)

OK. Do you see why this poll stupefies me? So 66% of those polled say that values and views are more important than experience. Of those who picked values 56% said they will back Obama over McCain...yet McCain has a 9% advantage over Obama when those polled were asked whose values do you agree with. Of the 34% who say that experience is more important, McCain is the overwhelming choice...so how is it exactly, that McCain only has a 4% lead??? These numbers don't add up...or these people who were polled are insane. Here is a quote from the article that sums up exactly why I am frustrated with the American electorate...
"My heart sort of runs with McCain and my mind probably tends to run toward Obama," said David Scorup, 58, a county government official in Othello, Wash. "I think I resonate more with McCain."
WHAT??? Completely ridiculous...
