| Defending the CNN Poll, a LittleCNN's poll has Obama dropping 10 points in 100 days. Ed criticizes the poll, which still puts Obama at an unexpectedly-high 56% support, but he's off-base in this specific criticism, I'm pretty sure:Interviews with 1,136 adult Americans, including an oversample of African-Americans, conducted by telephone by Opinion Research Corporation on July 31-August 3, 2009. The margin of sampling error for results based on the total sample is plus or minus 3 percentage points.Oversampling does not mean overweighting. If you want to, say, conduct a broad national poll but also make specific conclusions about what a minority might think, you have to oversample them. I think the minimum -- minimum -- number of respondents you need to put out numbers for any question is around 400. The academic/business organization that sets standards for this sort of thing is the AAPOR, sets 400 as the minimum number for meaningful results for any poll question -- and that includes a sub-segment of the poll's total universe of respondents, too. So, to get meaningful results from black respondents specifically, you need 400 of them. At a minimum. Now, blacks are like 12% of the population so if you are polling 1000 Americans you're likely to only get 120 blacks. That's fine, if you don't want to report specific responses from the black population. But if you want to report those responses, and want them to actually be statistically meaningful, you need to get that sub-cohort up around 400. Does that mean they didn't weight black responses back down? No, of course they did. Any polling company which didn't would be setting itself up for not only ridicule but loss of business, as its competitors pointed out the gross error of postulating a 37% black US population. They weighted them back down to 12%, or 13%, or whatever the current Census figures indicate. As for polling adults rather than voters: Well, it's true that adults are the least predictive sample... if you're predicting election results. If you don't care about who wins an election, but rather only what adults think, whether they vote or not, it's the appropriate sample. In this case, their decision was likely made not according to what they really wanted to measure -- adult mood or likely future election results -- but according to cost. Anytime you screen out respondents, it costs you money. You spend more on your callers' salaries (paid by the hour, mostly) because they're making many more phone calls than they're actually generating responses (i.e., stuff you can use in your poll). In this case, CNN had already made one costly decision -- calling lots of people to try to get those 400 black respondents -- and cheaped out on making it more costly by screening for voters (or, even more costly, likely voters). At any rate, there are a lot of ways that a pollster can manipulate results -- the biggest assumption being about current party identification figures, those being kinda anyone's guess and therefore pretty variable between pollsters -- but grossly overweighting a well-known and easily-checked stat like "percentage of blacks in the US" isn't one of them. I mention this not to call Ed out, but because it's, well, true, and I've been seeing stray references to an "oversampled CNN poll" in the comments. By the Way: The minimum 400 rule gets violated all the time. The media violates it all the time when they report statistically-insignificant stuff like "unmarried Asian females," a group their poll sampled like, what, three of? You asked three unmarried Asian females a question and now you're gonna get all conclude-y about them? But polling companies themselves aren't supposed to. They too will write lots of analysis about tiny sample-size questions and pass those to clients, to demonstrate they're "getting their money's worth," but they're not supposed to. A lot of those micro-sized break-out questions are absolutely meaningless and the AAPOR says not to report them at all. One Other Way the Media Biases Polls: They bury polls they don't like and trash their own polls. I forget which poll it was, but one of the big networks found a lot of support for McCain/Palin, and simply didn't report the poll. When they eventually did have to report it (embarrassed into it), they trashed it. Now that poll was probably a bad poll. But when a network finds support for Obama and the Democrats at a suspiciously-high level, they don't bury or trash their poll. They vigorously promote it, claiming it heralds a major come-back or blah blah blah. If they were being honest and consistent, they'd either report all polls equally enthusiastically, or equally bury/trash polls that were out of kilter with other polls. They don't. They don't mind when their polls come in overly-optimistically for the Democrats. To them it's win-lose -- hey, it's a garbage poll, but we win, because we inject a little optimism into our Democratic friends. A poll coming in too high for the GOP is lose-lose, and they trash it. Heh: Ed's right about this: One of the questions asked, “How do you personally feel about Barack Obama being president?”, has the following options for response: Thrilled, Happy, Don’t Care, Unhappy, Depressed, No Opinion. Depressed? CNN offers two kinds of responses for happy, one for unhappy, and one that asks people to diagnose themselves with a clinical disease.Not just a disease, but a sin, isn't it? Don't Catholics teach that allowing yourself to stew in depression is self-indulgent and sinful? Biased. Why not "very displeased"? Or maybe CNN can really cook the books and ask, "How do you personally feel about the President?" Happy, plus I'm really good-looking Unhappy, and I've gone all pear-shaped and I smell like funky cheese Angry, crazed, and racist, and also my dick is the size of watch-battery and/or I've got chronic swamp-ass Comments1
But in either case it still looks bad for Obama, no matter how they try to weigh it.

War on Terror Over: (heard @ on Rush) Obama replaces 'global war on terror' in strategy shift President Barack Obama is replacing the "global war on terror" with a new strategy more narrowly focused on Al-Qaeda and relying more on a broader effort to engage the Muslim world, a top aide said Thursday. John Brennan, Obama's chief counter-terrorism advisor, said Al-Qaeda remains a "persistent and evolving threat" to the United States and is being aggressively targeted by the new administration. "But describing our efforts as a 'global war' only plays into the warped narrative that Al-Qaeda propagates," Brennan said in comments prepared for delivery to a think tank here. "It plays into the misleading and dangerous notion that the US is somehow in conflict with the rest of the world," he said. He said Obama was bringing to the issue "a fundamentally new and more effective approach" by attacking the longer-term problem of Muslim extremism through diplomacy and political and economic strategies. "Indeed, the counterinsurgency lessons learned in Iraq and Afghanistan apply equally to the broader fight against extremism: we cannot shoot ourselves out of this challenge," he said. "We can take out all the terrorists we want -- their leadership and their foot soldiers. But if we fail to confront the broader political, economic, and social conditions in which extremists thrive, then there will always be another recruit in the pipeline, another attack coming downstream," he said Posted by: momma at August 06, 2009 01:37 PM (penCf) Posted by: Tweet Diamond Phillips at August 06, 2009 01:38 PM (jVldi) Posted by: Tweet Diamond Phillips at August 06, 2009 01:41 PM (jVldi) 6
I wonder if CNN writes the story from the polling firm's analysis or on their own from the crosstabs and internals.
If they are paraphrasing the polling firm's professional analysis, then I agree with Ace. If not, and their own hacks get to grab numbers from the basket then they will likely cherry pick the data for there man. Did they release the actual work product from the polling firm in support of the story? Posted by: Jean at August 06, 2009 01:41 PM (L64A6) 7
"They weighted them back down to 12%, or 13%, or whatever the current
Census figures indicate." But how do you know? That's Ed's point. We dont' know because they didn't publish the details, right? "Any polling company which didn't would be setting itself up for not only ridicule but loss of business,.." Or they do exactly what they were hired to do: oversample for a happy, happy fun, fun result. It depends on what the company was asked to do. Push polling and polling for internal research are two different beasts. One's designed to affect PO and one is for accurate data. Posted by: Chimney Sweep #8 at August 06, 2009 01:42 PM (kIjlp) 8

Let me say that that would be such a blatant and unprofessional distortion, with real-world implications (loss of business from all the firms your competitors just showed your crap data to) that it is kinda stretching it to suspect it absent any evidence. They didn't do that. The 56% approval rating is easily explained-- they polled ADULTS. Polls of adults always have 4-6 extra "bonus points" for the dems than polls of likelies. As we can already explain the difference, why posit new explanations? Posted by: ace at August 06, 2009 01:52 PM (S+TBP) Posted by: Truman at August 06, 2009 01:54 PM (XH/G8) 17

it's not meaningless if you want to know what 'adults" think. we also know that a lot of these guys overweight Democrats. So we know polls like CNN's consistently overstate Democratic support by 2-4 points. Plus, polls have an MOE. Most likely CNN got a bad sample, even a bit worse than the bad sample they were already shooting for. Posted by: ace at August 06, 2009 01:57 PM (S+TBP) 20
"... their own hacks ..." is a reference to CNN's hacks, not the polling firms.
Posted by: Jean at August 06, 2009 01:58 PM (L64A6) 21
i know and yeah I think they do that.
Their hacks are also not pollsters so to them all numbers seem to have the same statistical validity, when they don't. I was hugely amused how the NYT would report every drop in Bush's approval rating in the headline, but when Bush's approval rose (and for years it bounced around in a 10 point range, going up three points one week, down three the next) they would suddenly lose all interest in the approval rating and report something like "PUBLIC INCREASINGLY CONCERNED ABOUT NATURAL GAS PRICES, POLL FINDS." Yeah. Because that was really headline-worthy, eh? Posted by: ace at August 06, 2009 02:01 PM (S+TBP) 22
it's not meaningless if you want to know what 'adults" think. Okay, fair enough. But... "Americans" don't vote, so I guess what I mean is, it's irrelevant for election tracking. we also know that a lot of these guys overweight Democrats. So we know polls like CNN's consistently overstate Democratic support by 2-4 points. Yeah. CNN is sort of garbage. Since we're guessing on how much they're oversampling, why don't we just guess about the public feelings about Obama? I bet we could construct a more accurate number than CNN could by asking people.

OT Was Obama counting on this when he gave so much responsibility to the FDIC? The FDIC is in trouble The FDIC insures 8,246 institutions, with $13.5 trillion in assets. Not all of them are going bankrupt, of course. Yet as of late July, a disturbing 64 banks had gone belly up this year – the most since 1992 – costing the FDIC $12.5 billion. At the end of Q1, the agency was already asking for emergency funding. Other measures of how serious the losses at banks are becoming can be seen in the chart below, which shows charge-offs and non-current loans at all banks. You can see that the Net Charge-offs remain stubbornly high, with banks charging off almost $40 billion in bad loans in the last two quarters alone. And the number of non-current loans – loans where payments are not being kept up – is soaring. Into the battle against bank insolvency the Fed brings a level of reserves that can best be described as paper-thin. From almost $60 billion last fall, the FDIC’s reserves have been drawn down to only about $13 billion today, a 16-year low. A quick look at the FDIC’s own data shows us how inadequate those reserves are compared to the deposits they are now insuring. Posted by: momma at August 06, 2009 02:08 PM (penCf) 26

Question: why would the state run media report this at all? Unless he has dropped more than 10 points or because there is an implicit warning in it that there isn't enough spin and the "enemy" is getting through. I've always thought that his "support" was overrated anyway. He didn't win by that big a margin and I think alot of that was fraud, media propaganda push, and echo chamber voting. Here in Virginia the democrat for governor is going to lose because the fraud machine and the ACORN machine are not going to turn out for him like they did for Obama. The "first time voters" from the last election won't even know there is an election between two middle aged white guys. You read it here first.

I think at some point, we're going to have to file a class action lawsuit against the major media outlets and make the case that their coverage is essentially an in-kind campaign contribution. (This would have to be based solely on "news reporting" and not editorial stuff. IOW, we wouldn't bring, say, Olberman into it.) Posted by: Farmer Joe at August 06, 2009 02:49 PM (z4es9) 71
50 Truman,
I don't subsribe to that notion
Somehow I overlooked your thoughtful post here. Sorry I didn't get back to you. I think that it is possible; if this ever becomes a "thing" in the MSM, then they will need a way to spin it that doesn't rely entirely on racism- that card is not working nearly as well as it was before Gatesaquiddick. Your examples of non-logic may suffice. Posted by: Truman at August 06, 2009 02:50 PM (XH/G8) 72
Catholicism doesn't view depression or any other forms of mental illness as sin. Sloth is a sin; so if you recognise an onset of depression and you're not doing anything about it, then yeah, you're in trouble. But the ABC poll isn't calling our virtue into question here. (Just our sanity.) Posted by: David Ross at August 06, 2009 02:50 PM (GwV+j) 73
It's got to be bad when the disapproval choice is"Angry, crazed, and racist, and also my dick is the size of watch-battery and/or I've got chronic swamp-ass" and the 0-tard is still dropping in the polls.

I think the poster is ironic. Its shows the truth about the crazy
right-wingers - they have no idea what the definition of socialism is.
Because while Obama is not a socialist no matter what they might want
to believe, but the Joker is REALLY not a socialist. I would categorize
him as an anarchist.
Thing is, it doesn't matter. It's mocking, and mockery is enough, regardless of its factual basis (Alinsky, again). The image is what will stick with people, not the reasoning behind it. For that reason alone, I think the poster is brilliant. Also, it's the first sign of open mockery of the Messiah. Once the ice is broken, there should be plenty more coming through the cracks.

I believe the church teaches that despair is sinful, because one who truly has faith in god knows that the universe is in good hands, and would not despair under any circumstances. Now, depression and despair aren't the same thing, but they're related, so it's easy enough to see a connection.

I think it will all end in fire and blood. And yet, I do not despair. Humanity improves with struggle. Wrap it in cotton and it tends to rot.

Don't Catholics teach that allowing yourself to stew in depression is self-indulgent and sinful?
Not exactly. Depression is a mental health/medical condition; despair, the belief that one has no prospect of salvation is a sin, in that it denies God's grace, and is a form of judgment upon one's sould (thereby making oneself on the level of God, the true judge). But your point about using that wording in a poll question is completely valid. Posted by: Fallen Sparrow at August 06, 2009 03:03 PM (SOf9N) 83

Washington Post apologizes for Clinton joke
Milbank said he couldn't reveal to whom President Barack Obama would serve a drink called "Mad B---- Beer." That line was followed by a brief picture of Clinton. The group Women, Action and the Media complained to the Post in a letter signed by 32 women. They called the video "sexist" and "tasteless."

Did they correct for that oversample? Did they weight the responses?
CNN’s polling data doesn’t explain at all, which leads one to the
conclusion that they kept the oversample in the final data.
Does that mean they didn't weight black responses back down? No, of course they did. Any polling company which didn't would be setting itself up for not only ridicule but loss of business, as its competitors pointed out the gross error of postulating a 37% black US population. Why give CNN the benefit of the doubt? Posted by: anonymous at August 06, 2009 03:50 PM (rEPj1) 105

Does that mean they didn't weight black responses back down? No, of course they did.
... They weighted them back down to 12%, or 13%, or whatever the current Census figures indicate. That seems a completely unreasonable and unwarranted presumption. CNN is not exactly the zenith of professionality and reliability. Posted by: Christopher Taylor at August 06, 2009 11:19 PM (PQY7w) 110
Ace,
I'm talking out my hat here, but I think you are too quick to dismiss Ed's criticisms. IANAP, but to run a poll that oversamples one segment, you would have to bias the area codes that you call. This runs several risks. (1) you may get a large underreporting error, in other words you call people from a predominantly "x" population and you get a percentage of them that say they are not "x" but they are lying. (2) you get a larget percentage of people that are sympathetic to "x" views. IOW they are "Y", they report as "Y", but they are not representative of a typical "Y". (3) you intriduce a seperate bias by biasing your regions. for example not enough rural or suburban or wealthy or poor to give a good representation. The only way to "oversample" one population is to run two seperate polls. anythign else is trash. Posted by: jcp at August 07, 2009 08:11 AM (DHNp4) 111
