The tables in the pdf file...those
are frequency distribution tables (the tables even have the word "frequency" in them). I thought you knew what you were talking about here. Instead, you are petulantly trying to
raise the burden of proof. Again.
Show me the frequency including age breakdown for the Healthcare questions - or how you would arrive at that Shag. That is what I want to know... Simple for a stats guru such as yourself - right?
You have yet to logically demonstrate either of those things. However, you have gotten more bold in your hyperbolic pronouncements since I conceded the point that one question in the poll was arguably bias.
The polling base is skewed - I went over that in post 17. They didn't ask important questions - such as 'do you watch TV', so critical data is missing, and therefore the article is misleading because they state that their commercial is the reason for the shift in numbers. The data is flawed because of the addition of a push polling type question.
The data from which those frequency distribution tables are derived is where the crosstab analysis comes from that correlates age with the results of the questions.
So, find that data shag - it isn't available to us, and since the 'results' don't confirm what the article is stating, then, either Morris is lazy, or Morris is errant, or Morris doesn't have the numbers he wanted in the data and isn't showing results as they are normally shown in a political poll.
That is not a question you have asked from the very beginning and it is not a point I was every really contesting. It was your ignorant and misleading "interpretation" of this poll and what the various analyzes said (and didn't say) about the data they were derived from that I was contesting.
From the beginning I stated that I thought this poll was skewed, and probably misleading. Since at that point I didn't know what data they had since they didn't post it in their article. You dug around and found it shag. since then I had the results they were working with I could become more clear about what was wrong with the poll. One of the glaring things wrong is that they never ask about the TV commercials at all. How can they actually state this:
we ran television advertisments (sic) and an Internet campaign aimed at young people focused in Arkansas, North Dakota and Maine. The results are incredible!
when they never even asked any questions about TV viewership?
You have yet to reasonably show where I am in any way "deceiving" (though you have falsely made the accusation and tried to justify it through loaded statements and misrepresentation). However, I have documented where and, specifically, how you are deceiving throughout this thread (and for over a year on this forum), yet you are avoiding the question.
You continue to post articles that are flawed, and in some cases, just false. And then, rather than back down when you are challenged on their validity, you dig in and try to find some way, any way, to create a sense of legitimacy about them. They aren't legitimate at all, this article is pure propaganda. Which you are promoting. Why post an article that asks for money shag?
For a eighth time, why do you attempt to deceive people on this forum?
Attempting to turn the question on the questioner as you are doing here is childish, petty and a rather transparent attempt to dodge the question.
You might want to review Goebbels...
"One should not as a rule reveal one's secrets, since one does not know if and when one may need them again. The essential English leadership secret does not depend on particular intelligence. Rather, it depends on a remarkably stupid thick-headedness.
The English follow the principle that when one lies, one should lie big, and stick to it. They keep up their lies, even at the risk of looking ridiculous."
