Last night, in President Bush’s press conference, he was asked:
Is the poll troubling?
My first thought was, “Yes, if the polls were honest, but since they don’t seem to be, no.”
President Bush’s answer was far better.
Polls? You know, if a President tries to govern based on upon polls, you’re kind of like a dog chasing your tail. I don’t think you can make good, sound decisions based on polls. And I don’t think the American people want a President who relies upon polls and focus groups to make decisions for the American people.
