Reviews

"A really fascinating read."

--"RedState"

"Fortunately, at least one prominent assayer of public opinion has taken a good look at [polling practices] and is screaming, 'Pollster, heal thyself!' . . .

"Rasmussen's book makes it clear that voters do understand [the reality of the problems we face] and have given considerable thought to what changes would work. . . . Offers realistic solutions to our most pressing problems--both financially and politically."--Dick Morris, "New York Times "bestselling author of "Screwed!
