Polls and politicans: Truth is who you trust

Read more about: Irish Election 2007, Irish Politics, Polls

I find this amazing when political polls indicate a rise in popularity like when Fianna Fáil soars in poll as Opposition suffers decline. Everyone in the captive press spew hours of dialog about how such results could have happened. But when polls are negative, they spend that same effort trying to demonstrate that the polls were flawed, or biased.

The press cannot get it into their heads that the positive poll, while reflecting an unexpected result could be flawed, or even false in it’s results.
