i don't believe that 41% of Americans know what the tea party movement is. -- nm - Andie Jan 5, 06:46 17
- you're probably right. (TFox warning: 5-syllable words inside) - znufrii Jan 5, 06:55 8
  - no, i mean i don't think 41% of americans know OF it, much less know what it stands for. -- nm - Andie Jan 5, 06:58 7
    - you're pretty close, according to Don Homer's link... - znufrii Jan 5, 07:02 4
      - I'm confused. Couldn't then one speculate that 52% (probably less) know something about it? - JaxSean Jan 5, 07:09 3
        
        yes. -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 07:13 2

    - (prior to the poll question that named it, obviously). -- nm - Andie Jan 5, 06:58
- Those 41% are ppl like my Aunt who swear by Glenn Beck and force it on their kids, but can't name one thing he/ they support - MDH Jan 5, 06:55
- Right. And the poll in question used a very poor question wording, by describing the "tea party movement" in very positive terms. -- (link) - Don Homer Jan 5, 06:53 2
  - bingo. -- nm - znufrii Jan 5, 06:58
