Considering his effluents on the economy, he should change his name to Ghoulsbe.

Boy is that the truth. That’s the one potential flaw in merit pay. It would give way too much power to administrators who on average were mediocre at best as teachers.

Over the past several years, he has helped steer our country out of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, and although there is still much work ahead, his insights and counsel have helped lead us toward an economy that is growing and creating millions of jobs. He is one of America’s great economic thinkers.

...he leaves hoping he can get a gig where he doesn’t have to lie and has less responsibility. He knows Dumbo would throw him under the bus if needed to carry on the glorification of his legacy.

The only reason his numbers are still high...

I am beginning to doubt the "accuracy" of these polls more and more, I suspect that they have found the right formula to get the results that they want and just keep pumping out the same disinformation each week to demoralize the rest of the country.

IMHO and I have held this for years now, the “science” of political polling is long dead!

All they do is manufacture opinion, and I do not care if it`s Fox or Rasmussen or whatever, they are all garbage.

Newsweek I guess is the worst of them all, but really not much better than Fox and Ras, Fox is done by a liberal outfit of Manchester.

Sometimes I really think the conversation in the “news room” goes something like this.....

“Hey Charley, I am done with my Sarah Palin hit piece, what drawer are the Palin polls in? There`s one in particular that I am looking for, that would be perfect for my article.”

For the record... I have held this view before I even heard of Sarah Palin.

I am talking pre 2000 that the science of polling is dead

I agree wholeheartedly. I never really looked too deeply into it but it seems that at some point in time (probably decades ago), someone realized how "polls" could be used to manipulate public opinion and since that time more and more are used exactly for that purpose. I've also noticed that we are now bombarded with polls constantly, and there are polls about every possible issue imaginable.

I realize that I was a lot younger then, and most likely a lot less aware of things, but my memory in the 1960s is that there was maybe a few polls on a Presidential election, maybe one or two within the last month or so. Like I said, there may have been more than that and I don't remember them, but I know for sure that there wasn't anything like what we are bombarded with now, daily polls about elections more than a year away. It has to be crystal clear to anyone with more than a few brain cells left that the whole purpose of this constant "polling" is to manipulate public opinion. Just look at how much we are being told about the "front-runner" in the Republican race when the first primaries and caucuses are months away, and the field hasn't even been filled in yet!

Those who can't administrate go to congress.

“Funniest Celebrity”? Yeah,his stuff is a real riot (snark). I guess his sense of patriotism to serve and solve was overcome by his craving for tenure and campus love. I’m guessing he wasn’t getting any big bucks offers for his services after white hut life.

Not sure if he’s old enough but I always thot Joe Coolsbee had to be the inspiration for the econogeek in The Back to School movie——One of my all time favorites. It’s just so flaming funny how Coolsbee’s krap matches the movie guy’s.
