I haven't done any research for the National campaigns as of yet - i just qualified.

But of course I am neutral as far as surveys go.

"It's just a job to do" it's not "fun" / i have to do my job right, or bias the surveys.

Still it's " something else" besides the usual sales pitches.

When the People For The American Way called me up about voter disenfranchisement and fraud I brought up Nader's attempts at getting on the ballot. Now while I was completely nice and polite about it the pollster suddenly got snide and very much implied with their tone that they only meant as far as democrats were concerned.

Needless to say they haven't gotten a donation out of me since.

They flat out told me they weren't going to call me again. They really didn't want to hear jack shit about or from independents.
