Don’t trust Rasmussen polls

EXCERPT: [...] What ever happened to good old American quality control? But, hey, it’s a living. Produce crap numbers that disagree with everyone else and you’re gonna get headlines. You’d think news organizations would eventually twig to this particular scam and stop reporting Rasmussen numbers as if they’re actually data, but I guess polls are the journalistic equivalent of crack cocaine....
