How Obama Got Elected...



And how Sarah Palin got demonized...

From the Zogby Poll..

512 Obama Voters 11/13/08-11/15/08 MOE +/- 4.4 points

97.1% High School Graduate or higher, 55% College Graduates

Results to 12 simple Multiple Choice Questions

57.4% could NOT correctly say which party controls congress (and remember just guessing gives you a 50-50 chance of getting this one right)

81.8% didn't know Joe Biden quit a previous campaign because of plagiarism

82.6% didn't know that Barack Obama won his first election by getting opponents kicked off the ballot (25% chance by guessing)

88.4% didn't know that Obama said his policies would likely bankrupt the coal industry and make energy rates skyrocket

56.1% had no clue that Obama started his political career at the home of two former members of the Weather Underground.

The vast majority had never heard of Bill Ayers.

But...

Only 13.7% failed to identify Sarah Palin as the person on which their party spent $150,000 in clothes

Only 6.2% failed to identify Palin as the one with a pregnant teenage daughter

And 86.9 % thought that Palin said that she could see Russia from her “house,” even though that was Tina Fey who said that!!

Pretty scary...I wouldn't mind banging that one chick with the Obama tee-shirt on though. She's stupid enough that she'd believe anything you told her!
