Received this in my inbox a bit ago from someone who was one of the people polled in the Zogby 6th District poll.
Last weekend, I received a call from the Reuters/Zogby poll about Bachmann /Wetterling. By very off chance, I was both at home and within hearing range of the phone.
They asked my age, ethnicity, how often I shopped at Wal Mart, family income range, religious background, and opinion (very favorable to very unfavorable) of both Bachmann and Wetterling.
At least once a week, our household receives a mailing from the National Republican Congressional Committee -- Patty Wetterling hasn't voted in recent past elections; she ships jobs overseas (one graphic an airplane, one graphic a ship); and liberal Patty Wetterling will raise taxes. Singlehandedly.
Just FYI. And in case you haven't noticed, the NRCC is populated primarily by scumbags.
