Can I get an Oy Veh?

How a statistically insignificant poll becomes a 'narrative'.
http://www.politico.com/...
Comparing poll numbers taken during the reaction to the death of Bin-Laden and to a month later is bogus enough .. and Ben actually admits he knows better, he even quotes Gallup's own admission that 'pollster says that's not significant given the sample size', but something pushes him to put out this drivel.
"Many of the pro-Israel Democrats who spoke to POLITICO said they were beginning to contemplate the unthinkable .. and vote Republican" and goes on to quote one person as 'many' ..
What an indictment of 'some say journalism'.
Ben Smith should be ashamed of himself.
