Survey Says ... Ignore the Survey!

As soon as you file for political office, you will receive hundreds (if not thousands) of surveys from various groups, hoping to get you "on record" as supporting their causes.

Conservative groups, like the NRA and the Right to Life will submit surveys that you obviously should complete. But what do you do with the rest???

Only complete surveys from groups you agree with. Do not fill out surveys from liberal or "non-partisan" groups (nothing good can come of it, so ignore their continual requests).

This article points out my rationale ...

"This year, Nussle's response to the Project Vote Smart questionnaire said he supported the position that abortions should be legal only within the first trimester of pregnancy. During the past four congressional campaigns, he did not support that position, according to copies of questionnaires provided by the nonpartisan voter information service."

... Iowa blogger Krusty Konservative shares my opinion:

"Why are you filling out surveys from Project Vote Smart? Those types of organizations only cause you trouble, you should have tossed it in the trash. Please don’t tell me you filled out the survey Kyle Lobner sent out to candidates?"
