Video, 76% of the public want the public option and we are lucky to get 45 senators who support it. Why? Because of the money.

The Public Option: No Perfect Poll



Is there a right way to "poll the public option?" Are most pollsters "getting it wrong," while only a few ask the "perfect question" about the much debated health care reform proposal to create a "public option?" Nate Silver, in a post earlier this week, argues just that and suggests "five essential ingredients" for a good poll on the public opinion.
