"A Poll on Censure?did i have anything to do with that? i sent dan the MP post. i suspect i wasnt the only one.
But what if the country's actually for censure? How would we know?
Could we, maybe, find out?
The Mystery Pollster blogged yesterday: "The proposal by Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI) to censure President Bush over the domestic eavesdropping program crossed an important threshold this morning. It was mentioned in all the major 'mainstream' newspapers and at least two cable news networks (CNN and Fox). As such, it appears to meet the criteria that pollsters have offered as when considering whether to include a topic in national news media polls.""
here is the version from froomkin's Live-Online chat:
"Chicago, Ill.: Now that people like Rep. Conyers and Sen. Feingold have publicly brought up impeachment and censure of President Bush, will The Washington Post finally do some polling on those topics?
As we all recall, the main rational that The Post gave for not polling on said topics was that no public official had talked about it and the Post did not want to 'create news'. That's no longer the case so what are The Post's polling plans?
Dan Froomkin: I couldn't let the chat end without at least one impeachment-poll question.
For the record, I think asking about censure would be entirely reasonable right now. But I'm not even remotely involved in that decision."
