Some times, it's just too ridiculous to think about

Hey everybody! There's a new poll out that has McCain in the lead!
The media is clearly reallllllllly reaching to serve this load of crap up: AP-Yahoo!News funded a poll to garner some simple data on the political scene, and the best they could come up with for their guy (because why else would they use this, unless McCain is their guy?) was that pet owners support McCain by 42-37 percent. Yep; there's even a whole article about it--to the exclusion of the rest of the entire poll!
Among the unreported results:
Over 75% of those polled say "things" are on the wrong track.
Twice as many polled have a "very favorable" impression of Obama v. McCain.
Obama actually outpolled McCain overall, but really, it's even.
On 13 out of 18 issues, those polled trusted Obama to handle them better, and on a 14th, Obama was only 1 point behind.
And this was a self-defined conservative (35% v. 21% liberal) and southern (37% of total, 14 pts. higher than next highest geographic region) group!
