The latest talking point of the public unions and their talking heads.

PPP polls are untrustworthy. As for this specific one, see Legal Insurretion blog for a breakdown on how crooked it is.

A democrat poll with a deceptive question as the dems do using the lamestream media. They fix the results of polls much as they fix the unemployment numbers they caused by collective bargaining.

I don’t, for a second, believe this Union propaganda. No one I talk to backs these Mafia thugs and goons.

Don’t worry, the corrections will come next week. This is out of the template. They just fit in their cause and the poll works for them.

“The nationwide telephone poll was conducted Feb. 24-27 with 984 adults and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points for all adults. Of those surveyed, 20 percent said there was a union member in their household, and 25 percent said there was a public employee in their household.”
Gee, ya thinkin’ what I’m thinkin’? BS ALERT!

Does this mean that, if Walker doesn't cave, he'll be praised by the media as having "made hard choices," like when Lowell Weicker, then Governor of Connecticut, imposed an income tax that no one wanted, and was given a "Courage Award" by Caroline Kennedy?
If Walker doesn't cave, will he be called "statesmanlike," as are other elected leaders who govern "against the will of the people" ?

Yes, virtually everyone loves paying higher taxes.
What a bullsh** poll.

Because everyone knows that the public is begging to be raked over the coals.
The level of stupidity the MSM assigns to the general public is astoundingly insulting.
To: Incorrigible
A New York Slimes/See-BS poll?
REALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why don;t they take a poll on wwhether or not Americans think Obama is the Second Coming of Christ. I KNOW what THAT poll would say!
How can ANYONE take these two propaganda machines seriously.

A public union employee in 25% of their households?? I imagine that is way above the national average.

Just wait until the people realize that all of their health care workers, including doctors and nurses are now “public employees”.

First, the partisan split in the sample gave a ten-point advantage to Democrats. Their sample for this poll had a D/R/I split of 36/26/31, an absurd sample for political polling. In December, Rasmussens general-population survey put Republicans ahead, 36.0% to 34.7% for Democrats. A recent poll by Gallup shows erosion in Democratic affiliation all through 2010. In 2008, Barack Obama won the popular vote by seven points nationwide, and the NYT/CBS poll assumes that the electorate has grown more Democratic in 2011.I think they are farrrrr too generous. They should assume:
- Democrats make up 783% of the population.
- Republicans make up -653% of the population.
- Independents make up -30% of the population.
That way, they can show the TRUE makeup of America.
Y'see.

It takes a real leap of faith, even by Democrats, to believe in any poll financed by CBS and the New York Times. Even Pew receives more trust, and that is saying something.
