This AP/Ipsos poll is getting a lot of attention today. The hook: “A new poll reveals a clear leader in the Republican presidential race: nobody.”

To see how dishonest this poll was, go to page 9 (pdf.)

Anyone who said they were Democrats or leaned Democrat was offered only Democrats to choose from. Anyone who said they were Republican or leaned Republican got to choose from Rudy McRomney, 2 candidates who haven’t declared (Gingrich and Thompson), Huckabee and Brownback. No wonder the results are so dismal. The interesting numbers:

Other 2
None 8
(DK/NS) 15

That’s 25%. What would it have been if Ron Paul hadn’t been excluded?
