Another (this one is mostly worthless) data point

Zogby internet poll:

Perry 37
Bell 29
Strayhorn 15
Friedman 15
I've written for years now about how untrustworthy these Zogby internet polls are.

That's awfully different than their phone poll done for the Houston Chronicle in a similar time frame, which found this:

Perry 38%
Bell 22%
Strayhorn 21%
Friedman 11%
Werner 1%
Internet polls are not reliable. Here's the funny thing: I could write long paragraphs explaining why this is, but it's not worth it. At this point in the election cycle, with partisan fervor at a peak...if you don't already know why internet polls aren't reliable, then you're probably not going to be reasoned with.
