CNN/Opinion Research Polls being diseminated on
American Morning this week seem to go against every other poll or conventional thinking. For expample, on Tuesday their poll had Dems favored by only 4% over Pukes with Dems 48% and Pukes 44%.

Today the poll question is "Do you believe President Bush has more power than any other president?" and they're showing that 66% of the people say NO, he doesn't have more power.

On Monday I was watching and I don't remember the question or the results that day but I do remember how skewed it was when compared to other similarly worded polls from other sources. But I just let it slide. Then the Tuesday question was obviously padded in favor of Pukes.

I wasn't paying attention on Wednesday but so far for the bulk of this week's days, these CNN/Opinion Research polls have just seemed so contrary to most of the other polls and the general consensus among the public and the punditry...and have even been diametrically opposite of polls they report on later in the day.

Has anyone else noticed the disparity with these polls on American Morning?

1. CNN on line poll seem to have different exposure times
On Tuesday morning I saw one poll. It didn't seem to last too long. I found some poll questions stay on all day while other disappear in hours or less.

here was Tuesday's poll:
I had sent earlier to my friends on the internet at 10:14 am. on Tuesday. It was gone an hour and half later.

Here is the paste:

October 24, 2006

Do you have faith in the United States' democracy and government?

Yes 44%
50984 votes


No 56%
65420 votes
