Polls are perhaps useful for those with an agenda. The problem with polls and statistics is that they can be spun and twisted to fit one's own agenda. The same statistics can be used by opposite sides. I think way back to the debating club when in H.S. We had basically the same stats and had to prepare an argument for both sides of a proposition since we didn't know which side we would take until just before the debate. That sounds a lot like politics doesn't it. It doesn't matter who is right, just who wins.

BTW: I thought FU was Furman University for College Kids!<BG>

BTW again: According to Pulque I'm in my last year and nobody has asked my opinion yet. (sigh).
