Nice headline from this apparent pro-Paul site: http://www.thestatecolumn.com/articles/ron-paul-grabs-3rd-in-latest-quinnipiac-poll-of-ohio-republicans/

The Republican numbers are Registered Republicans only.

And there's no breakdown of 18-34.

They talked to a lot of 18-34, but I'd guess few 18-34 Registered Republicans.

Sh*t like this should be illegal. Q states, "In the GOP presidential race in Ohio, in line behind Cain and Romney are Texas Congressman Ron Paul with 8 percent..."

And yet they have a survey of, "Cain leads a three-man race with 40 percent, followed by Romney at 33 percent and Perry at 10 percent."

Now I'm not a pollster, but I'm pretty sure if you're going to create a poll of a three man race, it makes best sense to make the three choices the top three vote getters in the overall poll. If not you can create any situation, like this one: Paul leads a three man race with Bachmann and Santorum. Now was that statement accurate, yes. Did it tell you anything useful, no.

Well, I agree, but when they started the poll, they might've assumed that Perry would be closer to where he was last time.

I will say that whenever there's a chance to talk about Perry in any way, they will.

No, they are asking that three way question before they know the results of the survey. They predetermined the three way race before the results came in. Come on, use a brain.
