Well... that goes without saying. California is more useless than Romania. 

Though those peasants in SC are pretty savage ._O(<---NC monocle, because we are the more civilized Carolina)

I don't see why you people underappreciate California so much. It just seems like you're jealous. And that Romania part actually hurt, to my surprise.

Sounds like typical material that will be blown out of proportion and used to discredit right wing party.

In fairness I do believe that this poll is a bit misleading.  although most of us could honestly give a crap about interacial coupling, there are tons of folks out there, not just republicans that are racist.  A lot of minority groups including Spanish, Latinos, Italians, Indians etc. don't believe in mixing races, and in some cases it would get said person disowned by their family to a degree.  So it's not just whitey that looks bad in this whole situation, its down to the way that people of a like culture tend to stay in said culture.  

Shhh.... you ruin the picture of the evil White man.

There's nothing as evil in this world as a middle-aged Republican white male.

Why does everyone pick on Romania in this web site?

After reading up on PPP, they are a Democrat pollister firm which is usually employed by Democrats to provide biased, targeted polling. They've readily admitted to it, too.:

http://mediatrackers.org/2011/03/public-policy-poll-overrepresented-union-househoulds-in-poll/

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0609/24062.html

According to PPP, they were paid to poll North Carolina's senatorial seat in 2010, and stated that Richard Burr was one of the most vunerable candidates in the nation. In reality, Mr. Burr won the seat by the largest majority in state history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Burr#2010_Senate_campaign

Hold on. You can't source right wing articles as evidence for biased left wing polling companies, that makes no sense.

And regardless, 400 people is enough to guage a significant enough opinion on one single minor issue (its minor because racial segregation is illegal, end of story).



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

So you believe Politico.com fabricated the very words of PPP staff that they were actively rooting for Democratic candidates during the polling process? If so, you should advise PPP to consider a lawsuit against them.

You can easily find PPP's bias, just look at their Richard Burr polling data. Did you bother looking at that? Or is Wikipedia a right-wing site too?

PPP was founded by a Democrat pollister: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Policy_Polling

You can find a lot of other reading about PPP through other sites like the National Review: http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/243447/public-policy-polling-or-controlling-jim-geraghty

I never said 400 people isn't enough to gauge opinion, I am questioning how they sampled these 400 people. Given that they had a very high sample size of those age 65 , its reasonable to believe there is a heavy bias to show that Republicans disapprove of interracial marriage. Given that the approval ratings for interracial marriage are heavily tied to age (as favoritism has gone up every year as newer people take the polls), it really makes you question why they sampled so many older people.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
