The problem with the polls isn't that they're so hard, it's that nine out of every ten KATG listeners are ADD and can't pay attention long enough to hear the whole point. They also love to disagree for attention so they pick out one sentence of a point Keith or Chemda is making and they choose to interpret it out of context just so they can build a strawman to beat down and show off their superior debating "skills".

This combination in listeners of being both ADD and contrary motherfuckers gives the polls (including this one) a 117% margin of error. I'm no statisticologist but that seems on the high side.
