The Daily Howler points out this strange discussion by John Judis in The New Republic [emphasis the Howler’s]:
Could it be that voters lied to pollsters this time, too?
Andrew Kohut, a pollster for the Pew Research Center, thinks so. Kohut is the eminence grise among pollsters. His interpretation was published in The New York Times. Suffice it to say, it carried a lot of weight. Kohut’s argument goes as follows: Clinton did much better in the final count than Obama among poorer, less educated voters. These voters “have more unfavorable views of blacks” than wealthier, more educated voters. Kohut doesn’t accuse these voters of lying.
So, to summarize Judis:
1. Could it be they lied.
2. Andrew Kohut thinks so.
3. Kohut doesn’t accuse these voters of lying.
Don’t they even read what they write?
