I'll agree for the most part, though this one had a twist. Instead of polling everyone reading an article on CNN or MSNBC with a "Yes" or "No" question, these folks asked a number of questions of visitors to a specific site aimed at Occupiers.

Still a flawed affair, it's probably accurate enough for general purposes such as discussion here.

    - I've developed a healthy suspicion of all polls, although some are more reliable than others. - TB - 10/31/2011 8:10:52 PM
