Somewhat Vs. Strong
I disagree with Bush on a lot of things. In fact, I would be shocked to find someone in the presidency I agree with 100%. So when someone asks me a question about Bush, I am a ‘somewhat’ person. And if I think he could de better I am ‘somewhat negative’. Does it mean I would vote democrat? Strongly no. The two do not equate. So when I read a poll like this:
——– Approve ——–
NET 42
Strongly 25
Somewhat 18——- Disapprove ——
NET 56
Somewhat 14
Strongly 42No Opinion 2
1/26/06
The claim of disapprove is at 56% is just too much of a stretch. The only thing I focus on is the “Strongly” beacuse that is the opposition. That is the group ready to fight to oppose. Which means, in this case, 58% are not in opposition.
Well, if pollsters want to kid themselves with ambiguous and subjective numbers, I could care less.
