Couldn't edit the title after the posting, having noticed said mistake - but the text should have made that explicitly clear.

Seriously, Herman Cain and Chris Christie scoring that high? This poll is a dud.

Herman Cain? I have absolutely never heard of him. When I initially read the name I was like "Is that a real person?"

This is terrible.

It's the same old bullshit over again. No wonder some people here have lost faith in the whole political process.
