Q&A Friday #83: How Seriously Do You Take Polls?

Question: How seriously do you take polls? I know you use them quite often to support an opinion, but do you really think they’re that accurate?

Comments On The Democratic Debate From Around The Blogosphere

The Democratic debate last night was certainly more interesting than the Vegas lovefest.
