survey says
As the National Trainwreck that will surely be Election 2004 draws nearer, I have noticed something about the news coverage of the campaigns.
Almost every time I turn on the news, I hear the results of the latest polls. It seems as though everybody and their dog has conducted a poll about the upcoming presidential drama.
I don't understand the fascination. Are Americans as a whole obsessed with the opinions of others because they largely lack the critical thinking skills to adequately form their own opinions?
