Jon Stewart interviews John Zogby last night, asking him , "Let me ask you this, this is sort of a serious question, does the polling affect the election? Because everybody thinks Obama is winning and they kept saying "Well Obama is... he is gonna kill it... New Hampshire has a ton of independents. " So they think "Well, instead of going to Obama i'll go back to McCain" ... Does the polling influence what actually happens?"
John Zogby replied, " It's supposed to be. The question we always got was "Is because Obama winning the reason why people came out to vote for Obama. Now the tables are being turned, I ... I dont know. (laughs to himself) So help me God." (followed by hollow laughter)
Jon Stewart, "Yer killin me"
John Zogby' "I know" (said while laughing more heartily)
Jon Stewart, "Let me ask you one more question about the polling that you guys... You really don't know?? None of it?? Do you... I dont know, I was expecting a stiffer fight here, I wasn't expecting this ~ " You're Right, I Flay Myself Before You!"
Zogby just sat there, awkwardly chuckling... saying nothing
Jon Stewart continues, "...Are you, so... Are you gonna be wrong about... Why was the Republican thing right?"
John Zogby, " That's what i want to talk about, that's why i thought you brought me on this Goddamn show." (more hollow laughter)
