A Zogby Interactive Poll

I signed up to be one of the people participating in the most inaccurate polls ever, the Zogby Interactive polls. In this poll are the general political questions you get with any poll (approve/disapprove, right track/wrong track), and other questions which are more interesting, like this one:

Some say that the Obama administration is trying to grow the size of the federal government to the point where it could control most aspects of American life. Do you agree or disagree?
__ Agree
__ Disagree
__ Not sure

Those "some" do say a lot, don't they?

And then there's this one.

Do you consider yourself to be mostly a resident of: your city or town, America, or the planet earth?
__ My city or town
__ America
__ The planet earth
__ Not sure/refused

I'm not sure why Earth wasn't capitalized there. I thought lower-case it meant "dirt." Maybe only "America" was allowed to be capitalized. Still, an interesting question. I think I might've characterized the "earth" option as "the global community."

Another one.

Do you consider yourself a NASCAR fan?
__ Yes
__ No
__ Not sure
__ Refused

It's the "Refused" option that gets me here. Maybe there are some Upper West Siders who refuse to admit their fascination with motorsports?

Here's a fun one.

Would you consider yourself to be a member of the "investor class?"
__ Yes
__ No
__ Not sure
__ Refused

Immediately followed by.

How often do you shop at Wal-Mart?
__ Every week
__ A few times a month
__ A couple times a year
__ Never
__ Other
__ Not sure
__ Refused

Now, I understand the "Refused" option on these a bit more. Still, an interesting segmentation of respondents. Wal-Mart truly has a "low-class" image if shopping there is used to segment political survey responses. The poll closes with typical income questions, so the presence of the "investor-class" and "Wal-Mart shopping" question must serve some purpose other than as a proxy for income.

All in all, I get a conservative frame feeling from this poll, but I'm definitely biased so I may have my sensitivity turned up way too high. What do you think?

I am enjoying being a poll respondent, if you're interested, you can sign up too.
