[Marxism] Nader at 6% - CNN poll

[Joaquin Bustelo]

"Ruthless Critic of All That Exists" (unless it involves thinking) avers, in
order to respond to Nader's apparent rise in the polls, "Marxists do not set
any store by opinion polls. At the time of the US invasion of Panama,
opinion polls showed that most Panamanians favored a US invasion!!" 

And which polls would those have been, Ruthless? The ones done under the
Noriega dictatorship or the ones carried out under military occupation?
Anyways, the intimate interrelationship that exists between polls putatively
taken nearly two decades ago, on an entirely different subject, in a
different country, with different methodology, and one done in the U.S. in
the last week or so, so that the former makes mere mention of the latter an
occasion for derision, eludes me. 

Perhaps "Ruthless" can elaborate on what I seem to be missing.
