    zogby poll finds most clown supporters failed election test

    <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">UTICA, New York -- Just 2% of voters who supported Barack Obama on Election Day obtained perfect or near-perfect scores on a post election test which gauged their knowledge of statements and scandals associated with the presidential tickets during the campaign, a new Zogby International telephone poll shows.</div></div>

    <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Only 54% of Obama voters were able to answer at least half or more of the questions correctly.</div></div>

    <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">In addition to questions regarding statements and scandals associated with the campaigns, the 12-question, multiple-choice survey also included a question asking which political party controlled both houses of Congress leading up to the election -- 57% of Obama voters were unable to correctly answer that Democrats controlled both the House and the Senate.</div></div>

    How did McCain's supporters score on the same questions?
    In order to accurately portray voters both sides needs to be compared, but they only surveyed Obama voters.

    I know quite a few folks that voted for McCain that basically knew zilch about him. One coworker of mine didn't even know what war he was a POW in or that he was ever a POW.

    Too few people on both sides thoroughly research their candidates, unfortunately.

    To make your point you need to come up with something a little less biased.
    You'll shoot your eye out.

    Yea I think you would have to compare this with the results of an overall assesment of voters. There may just be a lot of ignorant people on both sides.

    The fact is King Hussein had the support of the VERY poor and the less educated. Not saying everybody that voted for him falls into that class but those were the people that ACORN targeted.

    I have formed my own country, NOBAMALAND. In the process of putting up the security fence as we speak. Have already applied for foreign aide.
